We discuss why Jim decided to leave Northern California and move to Tennessee.

We also understand why he is referred to as a "Five Tool" announcer, as he can broadcast many sporting events.
We also dive deep to ask him who came up with the funny moniker Middle Seat Koz and discuss who he thinks his doppelganger is!

Also, wait until the end of this podcast, where we give thanks and support to companies that stand behind our values of Faith, Family, and Freedom.
