MINNEAPOLIS – FLW Outdoors is set to hook listeners this Sunday during its two-hour radio show on Fox Sports Radio 1190 AM.
The bait? An enviable lineup of relevant guests is slated to inform and entertain by talking about their work as well as their respective sporting passions outside the industry.
Beginning at 10 a.m. CST July 28, “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” will showcase Manny Malhotra, center for the Dallas Stars; a live report from the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp; Texas businessman Red McCombs, owner of the Minnesota Vikings; and Derrek Stratton, general manager of the Great Texas Bass Club.
Hosts Keith Lebowitz and Travis Smith will treat listeners to lively discussions with these sports figures on “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart,” broadcast on Fox Sports 1190 AM throughout Texas and parts of Oklahoma from KTRA in Dallas. Those outside of the broadcast area can listen via an Internet link provided by FLW Outdoors: “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart.”
Although spontaneity is an integral part of live radio, Lebowitz said listeners can bank on this Sunday’s discussions including certain topics:
– Malhotra will join “FLW Outdoors Presented by Wal-Mart” live from Toronto to talk about his passion for golf, among other things.
– McCombs will discuss the future of the Vikings – whether the team can make a run for the Super Bowl with a new system to be unveiled by a new head coach. There can be no speculation about McCombs’ enthusiasm for the outdoors, however. The NFL team owner will discuss his favorite aspects of fishing and hunting.
– Those familiar with FLW Outdoors, the world’s leading organizer of sport-fishing tournaments, will want to hear Stratton, head of Texas’ largest angling club. He will reveal what’s hot in Texas in terms of bass fishing – from lures to fisheries.
– Mike Fisher, an on-air personality from Fox Sports 1190 AM, will report live from the Dallas Cowboys training camp in San Antonio, Texas, cluing listeners in on the team’s prospects for the upcoming football season.
