Audio of Interview with Isles Beat Reporter Greg Logan

[patchyfogg]

As everyone knows by now, I co-host a 100% commercial-free, no one makes a dime from it, Long Island Sports Talk radio show.

Here is a mini-transcript of the topics covered in our 33+ minute commercial-free interview with Newsday’s Islanders beat reporter Greg Logan last night. It is not an exhaustive list by any means, and I do hope that you get a chance to listen.
