Calling the Shots: Inside the Booth with Sportscast Play by Play Announcer Kenny Albert

September 23, 2024

In this episode of Up+Adam, Adam sits down with one of the most versatile and experienced sports broadcasters in the industry, Kenny Albert. The only broadcaster who has called games for all four major U.S. sports—NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL—Kenny has stories for days. They dive into his new book A Mic for All Seasons, where Kenny shares iconic moments from his three-decade career, from calling the Stanley Cup Final to the unforgettable Jose Bautista bat flip in the 2015 ALCS. Adam and Kenny talk about life in the booth, navigating unpredictable on-air moments (like the recent Michael Kay and John Flaherty incident), and the challenges and rewards of being behind the mic for some of the biggest events in sports history.
