275: Scott Hanson (Part A)

International broadcasting royalty joins The Howie Games. Scott Hanson is the face and voice of NFL RedZone, anchoring an astonishing seven hours of live American football every Sunday. But behind the energy is a broadcaster whose preparation, precision and professionalism are second to none. Fresh from touring the MCG with Eddie McGuire ahead of the NFL's return to Melbourne, Scott shares his first impressions of Australian sport, what makes the MCG so special, and why he believes the atmosphere will rival some of the biggest events in America. Along the way, Howie introduces Scott to a couple of classic Aussie terms, uncovers the mindset that's kept him at the top of sports broadcasting, and discovers the remarkable pre-game routine that allows him to get through seven straight hours on air without a single toilet break. Whether you're an NFL fan, a sports lover or fascinated by elite broadcasting, this is a conversation packed with stories, laughs and behind-the-scenes insights. A huge thanks to Visit Victoria for helping make this conversation possible. ***  Follow the Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/  Follow the Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
