Long before ESPN and non-stop sports TV, Denver’s own Irv Brown and Woody Paige were shaking up the airwaves with live, local sports talk radio. These guys didn’t just host a show—they hustled, bought their own airtime, and built a loyal community of fans (and opinionated callers like “The Hit Man”). Their grassroots approach made them legends and set the stage for the sports talk radio we know today. It’s wild to think Denver—not New York or LA—was the real birthplace of this format. How do you think local voices shape our sports culture now? #Sports #DenverSports #SportsTalk
