Summary

Today's episode features Ian Eagle of CBS Sports, TNT and the Brooklyn Nets. We start off the conversation talking about Chris Carrino. Chris is the radio voice of the Nets and was a recent guest on my podcast. Chris has a rare muscular disease and Ian talked about what an inspiration Chris is. I then asked Ian what it was like going to Syracuse University. Syracuse is one of the top broadcasting schools in the country and Ian has some phenomenal stories from his collegiate days. Ian and I then discuss what advice he has for aspiring broadcasters including obtaining perfection. I thought Ian had as close to perfection as I've seen in last January's playoff game between the Titans and Bengals. Ian spent his early years in the business at WFAN in New York. I asked him about working with Chris Russo and Suzyn Waldman, both of whom were just selected for the Radio Hall of Fame! We then wrap up the show talking about the Buffalo Bills who Ian thinks is the team to beat this year in the AFC. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
