Summary

For over twenty years Larry Krueger has been a fixture on radio in the Bay Area. Larry was an intern of mine when I worked at Channel 31 in Sacramento. On today's episode we talk about his career, how he got started, and hitting rock bottom in 2005. Larry lost his job in 2005 for comments regarding then Giants Manager Felipe Alou and Caribbean hitters. Larry opens up about that time in his life and then rebounding to the top of the sports talk mountain again. Larry currently hosts his show on his YouTube channel and is doing great! This is a fabulous conversation with someone I've known for 30 years! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
