OUR 155: ‘Journalism is supposed to be a democratic medium,’ with journalist Kyle Goon!

On Episode 155 of Ol’ Ute Radio we had a blast talking with Salt Lake Tribune journalist Kyle Goon!

Goon talks about the standards for scrutinizing younger athletes and the tricky nature of building relationships with the teams and coaches. Goon explains his personal philosophy behind his brand of journalism and how he is not just reporting on a University, but keeping a big business accountable.

Goon addresses the conflict between journalism versus blogging, defining the boundaries of the professional journalist vs player relationship and how he would rather live in a world with TMZ than without!

OUR 152: Former U of U Footballer: Kenneth Scott!

Johnny McKeon, Sascha Blume and Brittany Johnson welcome former University of Utah, wide receiver, Kenneth Scott to the show.

Scott, a fan favorite at the University of Utah, explains how the U of U football program helped shape him, to not only be a stellar athlete, but a complete and educated man.

Scott explains the importance of dieting as an athlete, and focusing on and proving your doubter wrong. He shares a tale of his mother’s strength and perseverance and how that impacted him. He talks about the responsibility that comes with being an inspiration to others and dealing with the expectations that come with fame. Kenneth explains the importance of being a man that others can depend on and taking the most from every opportunity.

Brittany also makes Scott free style… It’s awesome despite Blume’s inability to produce on the fly!
