Summary

On today's podcast I begin by talking about the positive reaction to episode 179 and Ryan in Sactown. The reality is we all need mentors and we all need positive reinforcement as we try and climb the ladder in this business. I tell stories about my early years and those that were instrumental in paving the way for my career. I discuss the impact Marv Albert and Chick Hearn had on my career and what I learned from them. I also tell the story about being on TV for the first time like it was yesterday! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
