The Life of Dad Show - A podcast by Life of Dad

Categories:

Tommy Riles and Art Eddy talk about what they thought they needed to change about themselves once they became dads. Then they bring Craig Sager onto the show. Many people know Craig Sager as the Emmy Award-winning broadcaster for Turner Sports who has become synonymous with the NBA over his more than four decades on air. He has also reported on MLB, the NFL, college football, twelve Olympic Games, the PGA Tour, Wimbledon, the World Cup, the Goodwill Games, and horse racing for TNT, CNN, CBS, and NBC. When he was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) there was an outpouring of love and support from everyone who was inspired by his colorful life and his fearless decision to continue doing the job he loved -- despite being told that he would have only three-to-six months to live. Sager has undergone three stem cell transplants -- with his son as the donor for two of them -- and more than twenty chemotherapy cycles since his diagnosis. In Living Out Loud, Craig Sager shares incredible stories from his remarkable career and chronicles his heroic battle. Make sure you pick up Craig's book Living Out Loud wherever books are sold.
