A Yank Down Under - Episode 1 - The Fight with Ray Martin
Description
Season One – A Yank Down Under
I was out of a job.
At lunchtime, I often went to Channel 5 in New York to play a nerf basketball game in the art department.
I go there this one day and two of my former colleagues from Channel 5 were in town to prep for a huge gig they’d landed in Hollywood, the first Ali-Frazier fight from Madison Square Garden.
It was the biggest sporting event in the world. This podcast is all about the unlikely story of how I became associate producer and the things that happened leading up to and during THE FIGHT.
Ray Martin and I were probably the only two people in Australia who were there that night.
