On today's episode of the show Matt is joined by in-house voice of the Toronto Maple Leafs - the great Mike Ross. Please take a moment to leave a rating and review there on your podcast app. Matt chats with Mike about his work with Accessible Media Inc, where AMI crosses paths with our very own Amy Burk, his early days in the broadcast industry, getting started in Ottawa, his various PA announcing gigs across sports, moving on to NHL Radio and trying to cover all 30 teams at once, being the voice of one of the most famous World Junior tournaments, how he ended up getting the gig with the Leafs, his first magical season with the team coinciding with the arrival of a fresh batch of new stars, working inside this year's NHL bubbled playoffs, the moment his place in hockey became very real to him, the story behind churning out over 1200 personalized goal calls to make the day of anyone who asked during the pandemic and his thoughts on the power of Leafs Nation. Mike is an incredibly talented broadcaster with a voice recognized by thousands and thousands of hockey fans and he turned out to be wonderfully generous with his time as well.
