Episode 4 - First guests join the show! NFL Draft recap, sports leagues updates, future faces of the sports world
In this weeks podcast, the 7th Floor Podcast sees our first guests on the show, Sebastian Becerra (Besay) and Michael Formella. For those who don't know, Big Al and Besay at Marquette University was where both Big Al and Xerox got things started in the radio booth, alongside Besay himself. Both Sebastian and Michael give their insight on the NFL Draft and it wouldn't be a Michael Formella appearance without some of his usual hijinx (no, Chubbs Peterson wasn't drafted by the Ravens in the 4th round). Xerox and Big Al discuss the Red Sox punishments, updates on the various leagues and when they may return, and an interesting top 10 rundown of who they think will be the faces of the sports world over the next 10 years. To cap things off, they give a recap of what we all saw this past Sunday from The Last Dance. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alec-winston/support
