Annie Sabo, a sports journalist and host of the Reds pre and post game shows, shares her experiences growing up in a baseball family -watching games from each team's "Kids Room" and the family moves through the years - and her journey in the world of sports journalism. 

Annie talks about her father, Chris Sabo - aka "Spuds McKenzie - and his famous goggles she once wore on-air. Chris played for the Cincinnati Reds and Annie became aware as a young girl the impact Chris had on the fans. 

Annie also discusses her career path, following her dad's advice of "why not be a broadcaster like Erin Andrews , including her time covering the Winter Olympics in 2018 and her current role with the Reds. She highlights the challenges faced by women in the industry  balancing her role as a mother and broadcaster, the importance of preparation in her work, and working with the always funny Jim Day.
