interviewing coaches

[LouisianaB]

It was never about Townsquare and there was never a policy. Which was the entire point I was making last year.

I don’t remember breakfast much less a RP post last year.

So back to my first question. Do coaches ever go on local podcasts?

. . . when it takes a book to deflect a concept that is so very simple and obvious, one is on the wrong end . . . let me know when you get that interview, then we can talk . . . until then, it is obvious that I am 100% rock solid on point . . .

Again, only a person like you would think that.

Rory has a very solid podcast, with great facts, has never ruffled a feather and can't get his friend on to talk about the program they both know and love. It has nothing to do with trust, reputation or anything else. You have no idea what you're talking about.

All of the time.

All of the time.

Like who? I don’t really listen much to podcasts because I’m too ADD.

Pods will vary in approaches. Some will be more aggressive, some milk toast like FB (no negativity allowed), some middle of the road, some way out there.

All depends on the personalities involved, objectives, career aspirations and such.

For example, if someone wants a career in “the media”, they’re not going to dump on any athletic program simply one never knows where a big gig may lead someone.

If the above isn’t an objective, varying approaches defines the pod. Approaches from Bobcat Goalwaith to a priest’s homily exists.

They’re all good, and if a person doesn’t like a particular approach, nobody says one has to listen. Same goes for guests, they don’t like a host’s approach, they don’t have to appear.

Sometimes, a nail in the road requires a tow truck of an explanation.

If you want to look at our peers: USM has multiple podcasts that have interviewed all major sport coaches. App St has two pods that have talked to all of their coaches. ODU has a weekly basketball show with their head basketball coach. They also interviewed their head baseball coach (pretty sure it was baseball) on their SECOND EVER episode. Troy has multiple that have talked to Sumerall. Houston and Memphis the same. I can go on..

Sorry should have been more specific. UL podcasts with UL coaches.

No, that's the whole point. The Louisiana Unlimited (i think that's the name) releases one episode a quarter and I think there has been a coach on there a time or two, but that's a Leirfield thing.

Podcasting is the future and keeping coaches off of local podcasts will set programs (with a blanket "NO" policy) further and further back
