“There’s a conventional way to do things and I don’t want to do it that way.  I want to do things that are a bit different and do challenge convention.” – Damon Amendolara

Damon Amendolara’s climb up to national sports talk radio host is well-deserved, if for no other reason than he’s willing to be creative and take chances with things that might be unorthodox on the air.

In other words, a missed shot is better than no shot at all when it comes to Damon.  That and his obvious talent for the industry make it no surprise that he is a budding star in the sports radio world.

We talk about those creative juices, roadblocks to success, whose great in this medium and a lot more.
