This is a longer than normal podcast because Scott Lynn and I have so much history. I owe my career to him. He got me started KGW and taught me the business. As is usual, how Scott moved from job to job in the industry is fascinating- who he knew, and timing. Scott had incredible “job timing.” Multiple times Scott was pretty sure he was going to “be asked to leave,” and he survived and thrived- in TV sports, radio, play-by-play, and as an author. He survived cancer too. We re-live the Good Old Days when KGW did sports specials at the racetrack, the marathon, high school sports—all while being told sports was not important. It was important to us, and Scott and I (and Joe Becker) were a team that made it happen.
