  • OTIS NIXON stole a lot of bases, and will steal your heart with his story of rebirth and recovery
    2025/09/07

    It's one thing to be one of greatest base stealers in MLB history and a fan favorite. It's another to fall from grace, struggle with drugs, addiction and public ridicule for your actions.

    OTIS NIXON recovers "out loud", sharing his ups and downs, and how his recovery has fueled his desire to help kids who are facing touch challenges in their lives.

    It's hard enough to face "Pudge" Rodriguez when trying to steal a base. It's quite another to face your demons openly and turn your experiences into a way to help others.

    This is a very real and very uplifting episode of The Approach Shot.

  • TOM BERGERON, the former host of "Dancing With The Stars", "Hollywood Squares" and "America's Funniest Home Videos" is on the OTHER side of the microphone as our guest on this episode of The Approach Shot
    2025/08/17

    Here are some odd subjects you may not expect to hear from TOM BERGERON, but are here in this episode of The Approach Shot:

    • Calling Australia on his radio show to hear the toilet flush
    • Talking with 2 of the 3 Stooges when he was 16 years old, because he felt like it
    • The horror of hearing your producer tell you to help with a "nip slip"
    • His self admitting nerd-dom

    Yes, of course we get into "Dancing With the Stars", sure we talk about "America's Funniest Home Videos", of course we talk "AFV", but there's so much more to our discussion with TOM BERGERON. It's one of our absolute favorite episodes ever, and will be yours too.

    PHIL SIMMS. You don't really have to say much beyond his name.

    He's a fierce competitor, whether on the football field, on the golf course or in life. He's also funny as hell, tells some amazing stories (yes, a few Lawrence Taylor stories are mixed in here), and his love and respect for his teammates, coaches, Big Blue, his family and the college that will honor him by naming their stadium after him this fall (Morehead State).

    It's all here including stories of Bill Parcells, Bill Walsh and so much more.
