Hello! I'm Larry, the first voice you'll hear on "No Wrong Choices," a podcast where we dive into the myriad paths to success. As someone who's navigated the crossroads of media and technology for years, I've seen firsthand that success isn't a straight line – it's a winding road of choices, experiences and adventures.

From leading and scaling businesses to mentoring the next wave of innovators, I've worn many hats – company President, advertising innovator, college professor, and yes, a devoted parent too. My journey in broadcasting began with SiriusXM, highlighted by my time spent anchoring "The Original" Sirius Sports talk show "Da Fellas," a gig that wasn't just about sports but also building lifelong friendships.

I bring a wealth of experiences and a unique business perspective to our podcast, and I'm truly passionate about the stories behind the successes. Whether it's chatting with artists, entrepreneurs, or athletes, each guest on our show brings a distinct viewpoint on decision-making and embracing every twist and turn.

I live with my family in New York City where you'll often find me cheering for the Yankees, or my hometown teams, the Buffalo Bills and Sabres. Off the air, I'm jamming to Bruce Springsteen or staying active – be it in the gym or on the court.
