from Ride Home Rants · host Mike Bono

Send us Fan MailAs the neon lights of Las Vegas faded into the background, Austin Fitch, the inspiring coach from Fort Cherry, PA, joined me to recount the whirlwind of leading his team to the state finals. Journey through the highs and lows of competitive sports with us, where the buzz of New Year's in Vegas sets the stage for a discussion on the city's burgeoning sports scene. From the warm embrace of the Raiders to the triumphs of the Vegas Golden Knights, we explore how geographical ties to teams can stir the hearts of fans, especially amid the turbulence of relocations and name changes.This week's episode isn't just about the glitz of game nights; it's a heartfelt narrative of Fort Cherry's legacy, where football giants like Marvin Lewis and Marty Schottenheimer have left indelible marks. Austin opens up about his own career trajectory, from technical education to the postal service, and even his offbeat passion for comedy. It's a testament to the power of ambition and the importance of chasing dreams, no matter how divergent the paths may seem. Austin's story is a blend of past and present, echoing the perseverance and spirit of Fort Cherry's finest.Wrap up your week with more than just a conversation; it's an experience as Austin shares his love for the scenic vistas beyond Vegas's casinos and his fervent support for Pittsburgh sports. Our "Fast Fiddy Five" segment peels back the layers, revealing the man behind the coach's whistle—his personal tastes, his Sunday rituals, and an invitation to the unique charm of a Friday night in McDonald, Pennsylvania. If you're seeking inspiration or just a good story, this episode promises to deliver both, with a side of community pride and an enduring pursuit of excellence.All music brought to you by former guest of the show SpeedoSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Tactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
