Summary

Ross is a Des Moines native, and after graduating from East High school in the metro, wasn't exactly sure what was next. He talks about how he found his way into the radio business and got behind the mic, which has now led him to his own show called Sports Fanatics during the 3-6 hours on KXNO in Des Moines, Iowa. We discuss plenty more of his background, some similarities of the podcast/radio fields of entertainment, we talk Iowa football and some expectations surrounding this season, and of course touch on some of our Iowa State Fair highlights, as this episode was recorded in person at the Crystal Studios on the fairgrounds.
