05/21/21 • 46 min

Team Noontime -- Matt Noonan, Zach Weiss, and Andrew Pezzelli -- is back for another week, as well as ready to kickoff your weekend with a unique podcast: We tell YOU our listener (and fan of our show) why we all decided to pursue careers in content creation/sports media.

All three hosts discuss their path into sports media -- why did you want to pursue this field/career? -- lessons learned, advice, and why we love doing what we do, which is broadcasting, podcasting and producing an array of content on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
