Description
If not for you I’m not sure where this thing would have gone. I had never heard of TJ Rives until he appeared on my cell phone offering his help...

Some declined, others never bothered to respond but the nearly 100 I corralled managed to turn this project into a rousing success. And they weren’t just from the broadcast industry. There was an umpire, hockey franchise owner, PA announcer, national anthem singer and baseball executive, among others.
There were absolute legends such as Brent Musburger and Bob Costas and women who have had a dramatic impact on our industry.
Through it all I had a blast. Each podcast involved around 8 hours of work, more than half of it editing while scouring for sound bites that fit the conversation. And there three others who were very involved in this podcast. Thank you Will Hatczel, Tatiana Shinkan and Nick Tocci.
But most importantly you, the listener, some of you who took the time to comment on social media. I really appreciated that.
And I wrote a book on the podcast, “Tell me a story I don’t know: Conversations with Chicago sports legends” which is available on Amazon Books. Thank you Triumph Books for taking a chance on a very unique project.
Who knows what’s next but I can tell you this for certain: I’m not done yet!
"Tell me a story I don't know" has been part of the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast" which can be followed/subscribed on Apple, Spreaker, Spotify, Google, etc.
