This week we speak with Randall Carlisle, who, before he retired a few years back, had been a TV news anchor in the Utah market on and off since 1980 – that’s four decades, people. Randall started at KUTV, but spent the most time – two decades-plus – at KTVX. We think you’ll find this episode to be revealing and blunt: Randall talks openly about his addiction and recovery, and about what it was like to be a top talent in local-market broadcast journalism. We had a great time talking to Randall, and we hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.
