Ken Rudulph, Horse Racing Commentator, musician, sportscaster
Ken Rudulph admittedly was not a fan of horse racing when he took a job with the-then fledgling TVG Horse Racing Network. Fast forward more than two decades, and he has forged a career in, around and beyond the world of horse racing that makes him one of the truly coolest guys I've known in the...

Mike Benton, Professional Hockey Play-by-play
Mike Benton has the polish of an NHL broadcaster, but just like the players whose games he calls, he has to earn his time on the ice at the top. These days - and since 2015 - he has been calling the play-by-play for one of the elite teams in the Canadian Hockey League's Junior tier, the Western...

For two decades he's been the man with the inside stuff in the Bay Area, and has authored books on both the Giants and 49ers.

Steve Physioc, MLB Play-by-Play & author
Steve Physioc is a pro's pro... and it turns out he can handle some prose, too. I got to know him when I was in SoCal covering the Angels and he was their TV play-by-play guy. His career has been impressive - and he's been at it for a long, long time. His smooth voice and positive storytelling…

Ben Maller, Fox Sports Radio Host
I've known Ben since he was a little bear cub, and frankly, the guy remains the nicest, most relatable pro in sports talk radio. He has brought fun to overnight sports talk radio for a long time with Fox Sports Radio on the Ben Maller Show, and you can also find his podcasts and live streams out...

Ryan O'Callaghan, former NFL player, author and LGBTQ activist
This one is from the archives - recorded in July 2019 just as his book was published and his story gained national prominence. Ryan O’Callaghan had a longer than average career in the NFL, but almost didn’t survive the experience. He has a new book, My Life on the Line – and much of it deals with...

Jon Leonoudakis, Baseball Documentarian

Amaury Pi Gonzalez, Oakland A’s Spanish language radio broadcaster
If you know anything about me, and it’s obviously OK if you don’t, you’d know all I ever dreamed of doing was play-by-play on the radio for baseball. Amaury Pi Gonzalez isn’t any different, and throughout what should be a Hall of Fame career calling MLB games (are you listening Cooperstown?) he…

Alicia Doyle, journalist, former boxer
Boxing is more than just an escape from the chaos of the streets or the baggage of what’s behind to those who find their way into the gym, and ultimately, the ring. boxing can be the road – and has been for many over the generations in hard scrabble America – to the way in life. That’s the story...
