Sports analyst, Sirius/XM Radio Host, and master storyteller, Ric Bucher (@RicBucher) joins The Brink of Midnight Podcast with John Brenkus. Ric Bucher is one of the most well-known and respected sports journalists, analysts, and hosts of today's sports world. His deep insights and coverage have connected us to powerful sports stories and the best of humanity. He hosts shows for MadDog Sports and the NBA on Sirius/XM, is the Senior Writer for Bleacher Report, and co-hosts the "BJ x Bucher Podcast" with NBA star BJ Armstrong. Ric's resume includes work at top media outlets like ESPN, ESPN the Magazine, Comcast, and The Washington Post, but his start in journalism will surprise you. He shares how being turned down for big jobs out of college and taking a low-paying job covering high school sports in San Diego was his turning point as a storyteller. He was forced to discover his process for finding captivating stories, and to this day, he does it all himself because of his pure love of the craft. This conversation is especially powerful in terms of highlighting how a perceived failure can create the foundation for finding our calling. Ric teaches us how to find and chase our passions and how ask the right questions to put us on our unique paths.
