Show notes

In episode 35, Kevin chats with Jake Zivin, the play-by-play broadcaster for Apple TV's coverage of the MLS. Saturday afternoon, Zivin will be on the call for the MLS Cup on Apple TV alongside Taylor Twellman. How Zivin got to that seat began as a kid with sports broadcasting aspirations, and included an internship with the MLS 20 years ago where he worked in the truck working the score bug. Those connections came in handy later on in Zivin's career, while he worked local TV in Montana and then Eugene, Oregon before getting to be the voice of the Portland Timbers. Hear how Jake Zivin broke in.
