Show notes

In episode 43, Kevin chats with James Brown, the host of "The NFL Today" on CBS. A three-time Emmy Award-winner, JB has been an NFL pregame host for more than 30 years, having done 11 Super Bowls. This episode dropped on the Sunday morning of the AFC Championship Game in Denver, where Brown will host "The NFL Today." Before he became a broadcaster, Brown was a star basketball player at Harvard, good enough to be drafted in the NBA and ABA. He'll discuss his basketball career and how he went from working at Xerox to getting a shot on the Washington Bullets telecasts, and then what led him to CBS. Hear how James Brown broke in.
