Just Another Podcast (Hangin With Wang)
To those who have been with us since the beginning - welcome back - and to those who are joining us for the first time - thank you for stopping by!
This is season 2 of the podcast, as we undergo a branding change - going from 'Hangin With Wang' to 'Just Another Podcast' featuring my broadcast partner and longtime friend, Jackson Heiden.
On 'Just Another Podcast' we take a deep dive into the world of sports and all of the wacky/weird storylines surrounding the games we follow and love - including an in-depth look at our lives as sports broadcasters and the people that make it all possible.
Unfortunately, in a world filled with laptops and cheap recording equipment, everyone and their grandmother has a podcast. So give us a listen, and see why 'Just Another Podcast' is so much more than just another podcast.
