“When you have a job that’s the best time to be looking for a job. You can lay it all out on the line and be aggressive because if it doesn’t work out you can always return to the job you have. You may be disappointed initially but you’re still going to ultimately be in a good spot because you’re doing something you love.” – Cody Stoots

How about being 18, well on your way to a career in business, only to run into “The Godfather” James Brown and decide business wasn’t for you?

Doesn’t sound real, does it? But, that happened to Cody Stoots.

Stoots decided that radio was the path he took, gave himself a deadline by which he needed to be a sports talk host in his native Houston before he decided he’d take a new path.

He got there years in advance.

At 26 years old, Stoots is the driver for a daily midday show on Sports Radio 610 in Houston.

Find out how he got there and a whole lot more on this episode of The PASR.
