“I thought one-sided radio was just for politics, and it’s not.” – Zach McCrite

The guest on this episode of The PASR is actually the host, Zach McCrite.

Zach made an appearance last week on The Matt Jones Podcast, consistently one of the top sports podcasts in the iTunes rankings. Jones was once a guest on The PASR (Episode 12) and is still, as of this recording, the most downloaded episode in PASR history.

This is a partial syndication of that episode of The Matt Jones Podcast.

In it, Jones asks Zach about his recent move back to his hometown, the radio scene the both of them ran around in over a decade ago, and sports radio as it stands today.

Enjoy this table-turning episode of The PASR and check out the full, unedited episode here.
