Ric Salizzo Reflects on SportsCafe & Marc Ellis, Friendships with Jonah Lomu, John Kirwan and more!
Ric Salizzo is New Zealand sports broadcasting royalty.
His CV is too long to list in full but a few highlights:
He became the All Blacks' first ever media liaison officer in the early 90s and was part of the ABs set up during the chaos of Jonah-mania in 1995.
He created, and hosted the cult TV show Sports Café which ran for 11 years. Then launched The Crowd Goes Wild.
We cover a lot of ground in this conversation- Ric is a world class storyteller with stories that are truly world class. I hope you guys like this one as much as I did.
Huge thanks to the sponsors of this episode, Generate and Radix.

Thanks so much Adam
Love the John Clarke story. Love that he understood that you respected the original enough - including the irony of it - to agree to change it too.
I love your podcast Dom. Been listening to you since 2009 on the edge. You remind me of my childhood brother. Would love to see someone interview you so we can have more info on your story!
