Dan Patrick was contemplative and reflective on the show following his third Marconi Award win.
On Thursday’s Dan Patrick Show, the longtime host took a minute to reflect on his show’s win as Network/Syndicated Personality of the Year.
“How much longer do I get a chance to do this?” Patrick began to say. “It starts to hit you. This is a rare, rare, rare opportunity to be able to do this. And it’s not lost on me what we have. What we’ve built.”
Patrick went on to talk about how hosts his age, with his tenure on the air, are a rare breed nothing personalities like Howard Stern.
“It’s rare to have people that are going to be in their mid-60s to late-60s – and I plan on continuing to do it – but longevity, probably Jim Rome is the only that comes close. In sports.”
“It’s hard to keep everybody together, continue to have fun, have the loyalty we have with all of our affiliates around the country, ” Patrick noted. “When we started with 20 radio stations and now it’s nearly 400. I didn’t do it alone. We didn’t do it alone. That’s what hits me. I’m having as much fun as I’ve ever had before and we have fun every single day… I’m very fortunate that I have this platform and I don’t take it for granted. I certainly don’t take this audience for granted.”
