On this episode I chatted with Jared Gallagher about his passion for telling Oklahoma golf stories through www.reddirtgolf.com and professional work as an announcer and broadcaster for high school, college and professional sports here in Oklahoma. 

Bio: Jared Gallagher is a dedicated professional in the sports industry with more than a decade of experience across all facets of athletic events. 

Jared got his start in the public address booth during his senior year of high school announcing grade school football and high school soccer in his hometown of Owasso, Oklahoma.
