Legends Of Sport With Andrew D. Bernstein

As we've highlighted time & time again on this podcast - not all Legends of Sport are forward facing. This week, Andy chats with longtime colleague, friend, & former USC Sports Information Director - Tim Tessalone! Over Tim's 43-year tenure at USC - his office publicized 47 National Championships across the Men's & Women's sports programs, 267 Olympians, 5 Heisman Trophy Winners, 12 Rose Bowl's(that the USC Trojans participated in), and countless honors. Andy & Tim discuss his sports fandom growing up in Southern California, his path to USC & the world of PR, how the world of Public Relations has changed over the years due to technology, & so much more! Plus, the time Will Ferrell interned for his office, how NIL deals are changing college sports, & a few stories from cutting their teeth together over the years!
