Imagine watching your favorite sport without hearing real-time, detailed descriptions of events. It feels like something’s missing, right? Play-by-play announcers add this unique element of excitement and energy surge as you cheer for your favorite team. You won’t be left out if you get distracted for a millisecond and miss an important part of the game. Even if you’re only listening on a radio, they have the magic to bring out vivid imaginations and keep your blood pumping.

As an avid sports fan who imitates these real-time announcements once in a while for fun, I am highly pumped and honored to say that we have the award-winning anchor, extraordinary sportscaster, and ESPN play-by-play announcer Alex Loeb in today’s episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast.

With more than 25 years of experience in sports broadcasting, Alex Loeb has covered games around the U.S., including massive events like the Super Bowl, and traveled with famous sports teams like the Miami Heat and more. He also hosted a daytime sports show in Austin, The Lowdown, on The Horn 104.9, which aired for over two years. To this day, Alex continues to let his love for sports resonate all over the globe as a play-by-play announcer for ESPN.

As we talk about his impressive track record, Alex shares how he discovered his love for broadcasting despite feeling lost in high school and not getting into college immediately. His story will encourage you to keep trying until you find a career that sparks joy.

Being a play-by-play announcer could be the dream job of many sports fans out there, but in this episode, Alex demystifies what an average fan doesn’t know about this job. He gave us an idea of how much training and effort he took to get into this field. If you’re aspiring to enter the world of sports as a play-by-play announcer like Alex, or you’re just curious, this episode is for you!
