The Original Sports Podcast with Mark Maradei
From teacher to coach to sports podcaster. It's always been a dream to do sports communication and now I'm finally making it come true. Though I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA and will always be a Steeler/Penguin/Pirate Fan--my podcast is about the love of ALL SPORTS. Join me weekly for guests, takes, and other news tidbits about the wonderful world of sports.
