A thrill to have one of the all-time great sports columnists, Larry Guest, who had remarkable 27-year run at the Orlando Sentinel from 1973 to 2000. He would also author many books with the likes of Arnold Palmer, Pat Williams, and John Schuerholz as well as write The Payne Stewart Story. We discuss his great career as a sports columnist and author and get his thoughts on today's sports landscape.
We bat around a variety of sports topics with Daytona Beach News Journal Sports Columnist Ken Willis including The Masters, Tigers return, pitch counts in baseball, the state of NASCAR, and more.
A pleasure to have one of the great analysts in college hoops, Mike O'Donnell of ESPN and CBS Sports as we put a cap on the college basketball season and the Final Four. We also chat a little UCF basketball as well.
It's our annual visit from Chip Caray, the TV Play-by-Play voice of the Atlanta Braves. We look back at the Braves 2021 World Championship Season, the departure of Freddie Freeman and the prospects of the 2022 season
Great to speak with Rich Podolsky about his book chronicling how Brent Musburger, Phyllis George, Irv Cross, Jimmy the Greek and the many great writers, producers, directors and executives at CBS Sports revolutionized sports broadcasting, making the The NFL Today of the 70s and 80s a cultural phenomenon and it's on-air talent superstars.
It's an "Emergency" pod as the sports broadcast media landscape is overturned by Joe Buck & Troy Aikman leaving Fox to go to ESPN and Monday Night Football. Plus:
- Kirk Herbstreit to Amazon, will Al Michaels join him? - Who gets the NFL and MLB #1 chairs at Fox - CBS/Turner NCAA Announcer lineups - Is John Crispin now Dan Dakich 2.0? - MLB: Apple TV+ and Peacock - Stephen A vs. Chris Russo
Adam, Eric and I discuss:
-A-Rod Cast -The passing of College Football Play-by-Play legend Ron Franklin -Sean Payton to broadcasting -Concert drowns out CBS halftime -Nantz, Tirico calling multiple events same week/weekend -Al Michaels last SB/SB 56 telecast critique -Mike Golic Jr out at ESPN Radio -And to celebrate legends while they are still with us, let’s pay homage to the great Verne Lundquist |
