"Inside the Game" Podcast

Inside the Game, Bob Costas, MLB Network, segment three of four

Season 2 Episode 94

We continue here on flexxCOACH's "Inside the Game" with Bob Costas.
We breakdown in this segment the differences in calling a game and working as a host in the studio for Olympics and other events.

Bob has hosted 12 Olympic games and has gives great background in how it all comes together and how you have to be a traffic cop in a way to host the games

He stresses one thing is really important knowing the history of the games and the city that is hosting. You have to make look very easy but there is a lot going on behind the scenes and producers talking in his ear as the show is moving along. You have to keep the flow going for the broadcast.

Bob also talks about his favorite moments that he has called during his career.

We also touch on the 1980 Olympics hockey call of Al Michaels and the importance of that moment in sports broadcasting history.

Very good segment on what goes into working in sports from Bob's perspective.
