Coach, Terrell, Rob and Ralph joined me live! We talk the struggles of coaching and being black. Also the other unseen hours we have been putting in just to get an opportunity to be a head coach. Each coach is at their respectable school but we all have and support one another. This game has done great things for us and its only right we show others the way. We spent some time talking about the parents role and the role of the STUDENT athletes. We are all sacrificing a lot to coach. We do it for the love of the game and to help mentor and save lives! Enjoy this episode!

Damien’s radio career launched in Sept 2001 when he began an internship at Sacramento flag ship station KSFM 102.5. Working through the ranks for several years, Damien’s internship turned into a part-time/fill-in host and in Jan of 2005 he became part of a morning show that would enjoy huge ratings success over the course of the next several years. In 2009, Damien launched a sports management company that oversaw the career of several WNBA athletes.
Damien returned to Sacramento radio in 2014. In April of 2016, he headed up the launch of The Lo-Down (a play off D-Lo, his name at KSFM). The show was a ratings success, consistently finishing in the Top 5 of the target 25-54 demographic while rating #1 in the 18-34 demographic. He began dipping into the digital media space while stretching outside of sports and into the world of politics and social initiatives with the launch of his first podcast Be Conscious.
In 2020, Damien founded the Be Heard Platform. Be Heard is a podcast platform launched to give underutilized voices an outlet to showcase their storytelling skills and share their opinions in front of a digital audience eager to support local personalities. Focusing on Black and female content creators, Be Heard features podcasts centered on sports, business, social justice, and pop culture. Be Heard’s mission is to create an alternative to traditional radio while introducing young, diverse talent taking their first steps as multimedia journalists.

Local Team Militant Guards Leah Nelson of Christian Brother high school, Kaylie Edge Sac State Commit and Mari Rumph of Franklin High school got to be my first group of high school athletes on the show.
As all the viewing periods have ended and we hope to have a full high school basketball season, these ladies talk about their busy summer. From aau practice and travel to the east coast. All the young ladies talked about the big sacrifices their families and coaches have made and continue to make for them to be able to play the game of basketball. Of course we talk the behind the scene life of aau. We talk new players new system and high level competition.
We had to address some mental health issue and concerns the ladies had, and are still dealing with to this day. It got a little emotional at one point in the show but the love and support that was shown was unreal! I enjoyed everything about this interview I hope you do also!
