Episode 90: Catching Up with Natalie Kalibat
I always love having guests from my radio days on the podcast, and it was great to catch up this episode with Natalie Kalibat -- former ABC 8 sports anchor here in Richmond and current ESPN+ broadcaster, as well as the host of the "Diving in Deep" podcast.
Natalie and I talked about her time in Richmond, including some of her favorite moments -- from covering NASCAR at Richmond Raceway to interviewing Alexander Ovechkin -- with the station, and also checked
We also talk about both her and husband Rich Witten continuing to work in sports after their move to Miami -- her broadcasting and coverage, as well as Rich's role as head baseball coach at FIU -- and how her experience diving at USC lends itself to her expert analysis while covering the sport.
