Baseball and BBQ Episode #79: Tim Kurkjian of ESPN and Kevin Sandridge of BBQ Beat
Episode 79 is our holiday present to you, our wonderful listeners.
Tim Kurkjian is a name you immediately associate with baseball. He is is a Major League Baseball analyst on ESPN's Baseball Tonight and SportsCenter. He is also a contributor to ESPN The Magazine and ESPN.com. Before joining ESPN he was a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. He has wonderful stories to share, including one involving Cal Ripken Jr. During our conversation he mentions the thrill he gets from the opportunity to sit alongside former Major League players and we in turn get a thrill from speaking with him.
Kevin Sandridge is the outstanding host of the BBQ Beat podcast. He is a lover of all things barbecue and enjoys providing listeners with tons of information from the world of barbecue. This includes talks on products, recipes, and introducing his audience to the eclectic mix of people associated with barbecue. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Kevin.
