Listen "Fox Sports Jam: Jacob Ullman"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Jonathan speaks with Jacob Ullman. Jacob, a Senior VP at FOX Sports, has been instrumental in bringing his love for jam bands, especially the Grateful Dead and Phish, into sports broadcasts. A longtime Deadhead who attended over 100 shows before Jerry Garcia's passing, Ullman, along with like-minded colleagues, has worked to seamlessly mix jam band music into NFL, MLB, and NASCAR events. His approach has created a distinct blend of sports and music on FOX, adding a cool, eclectic vibe to their broadcasts.
The Jam is hosted and produced by Jonathan Shank. Produced by Matt Dwyer and RJ Bee of Osiris Media. Audio Production by Matt Dwyer. Recorded at Sony in Los Angeles. Music by Amar Sastry. Thanks for listening, and see you next time.
