Episode 19 — Johnny Doskow

from Life Around The Seams Hosted by Josh Suchon

Johnny Doskow is the “RG” of the Sacramento River Cats, a very funny human who makes a series against his team something you always look forward to. You never know what he’s going to say, and you rarely know if he’s being serious or sarcastic. You know you’ll laugh a lot, share some deep thoughts about life, and that’s what we did in Episode 19 of the “Life Around the Seams" podcast. We “flapped” about some of the greatest hits from his career. The pranks he pulled. The pranks pulled on him. We learn when John became Johnny and why, what it’s like for a SoCal kid to do play-by-play of crab races and hog-market reports, and climbing through the minors leagues in his 27-year broadcasting career in baseball. Johnny D tells the story of a brush with death on a plane, memories of former minor league cities, why the River Cats held a bobblenose giveaway (yes, nose) in his honor, why he wears a bright orange suit once a year from Dumb and Dumber, and why his daughter will one day owe money to the River Cats PR director. Bro, it was not grindy. And we only had to “graveyard kiffle” one story.
