SB Nation Radio and SopranosCon have announced a media collaboration ahead of the interactive Sopranos-themed convention, which will take place on November 23-24 at the Meadowlands Expo Center in New Jersey. As part of the joint venture, SB Nation Radio will broadcast live from SopranosCon on November 23 from noon to 3pm ET with host Joe Spano interviewing many of The Sopranos iconic & unforgettable characters.

Spano will also have the chance to speak with the three founders of SopranosCon -- Mota, Daniel Trader (who runs @TimeImmemorial_ on Instagram, one of the largest Sopranos fan-based pages on the site), and Joe Fama (an artist who runs Sopranos Sketches, specializing in unique fan art based on the HBO show) -- and Federico Castellucio, whom fans of the show know as Furio and whom will be the narrator of the upcoming documentary, "Don't Stop: The SopranosCon Story."

SopranosCon co-founder and Skyline Water Place CEO Michael Mota said, "SB Nation and SopranosCon have a shared philosophy: for the fans, by the fans. We believe that it's the fans that, ultimately, make an event a success, and I'm thrilled to be collaborating with SB Nation Radio who understands that the fans come first."

"I'm a huge fan of The Sopranos," added Spano. "So, when the opportunity to work with SopranosCon came up, it made perfect sense to join forces. I can't wait to give our devoted listeners some exclusive news, interviews, and other fun finds they won't get anywhere else."
