"It was a good run" says Inside Wisconsin co-host and former ESPN SportsCenter anchor John Anderson as he announces in our end of year "best of" episode that this will be his last. The Inside Wisconsin Podcast will continue on, and, John's schedule simply doesn't allow the committment that is a bi-weekly podcast in this new phase of his life/retirement. Thus, we say "thank you, and all the best" to the man that helped build this from scratch. Inside Wisconsin doesn't exist without him. Join us as we say thank you and "see ya soon" to the one and only, JA.
