I guess June 4th, 2015 was the day when I almost drove off the highway when the Bertrand and Zolak show first played an audio clip from the old Kid Company SportsWorld show on NECN from 1996. Marc Bertrand was 10 years old (I was 39!) when he called in the nation's only live TV Sports Talk Show for Kids. That program included the "best of" of our show including a one on one interview with Michael Jordan by Jake Andersen. Also on that set for the show was Rachel Nance, the daughter of the late great Jim Nance. This program won me and co-producer Jody Snider, an Emmy Award from NATAS NE. They must be so desperate with no sports on 98-5 The Sports Hub, that they brought up my name and allowed me to plug what we are building at Pro Cannabis Media. Thank you Marc, Scott Zolak, and yes ...even Hardy!
