Show Notes

This is a special sit down with my home Basketball association interpreter, the venerable Don Landolphi. Unbeknownst to him, he has been instrumental in much of my success today from laying down strong roots instilled in me previously from my failures. His encouragement after I failed the written test was everything to me. Despite a failure to launch, I had no such sophomore slump. For what was supposed to, was my rookie year, and I made sure I absorbed anything and everything to make me the best I can be. Don is attributed. And so, my conversation with Don Landolphi, along with my co-host Steve Baum: we go over his upbringing and sports, his coaching career, and his long & illustrious officiating career. His second wind as an interpreter; and what’s next in retirement. Something tells me he’ll still. Be. Around. At the end he has a q&a session fielded by members in the association. I hope you enjoy.
