Season 11 Episode 33: Broadcast Legend Tim Brando Joins Me...

In this very special edition of "Next on the Tee," I'm joined by broadcasting legend Tim Brando. Tim Brando has practically done it all in the world of broadcasting. He started out calling high school football games alongside his father, Hub, in Shreveport, Louisiana. His entertainment career began at the tender age of 5 on his father's local variety show. As his career grew, he became the Assistant Sports Director at WAFB-TV in Baton Rouge and called men's and women's basketball for LSU. In 1984, he joined ESPN, hosting SportsCenter and their College Football Half-Time Show. By 1996, he was with CBS Sports, calling basketball games and hosting College Football Today. He also contributed to their digital media team, broadcasting The Masters. Fox Sports came calling in 2014, and he's been with them ever since. Tim is also an avid golfer and a member of Southern Trace Country Club in Shreveport. In our conversation, Tim walks us through his Hall of Fame career, touching on his partnership with Pittsburgh's own Beano Cook and the Pirates' pillbox hat given to him by Phil Garner. He's an amazing man who has done so much to enhance what we watch, thanks to his style and knowledge across a wide variety of sports. You can follow him on social media @timbrando.
