I'm sure he doesn't want all that travel, but he is probably in a tough situation.

Maybe after being off a few years he realized how much he missed it.

Or maybe it's paying the tax on the Wheel of Fortune winnings.

Mixed feelings on this. Mark is great on the broadcasts and will shine there. I think we got a lot of value out of having Mark in the Manger of Business development role and a separate play by play voice. Doing both jobs I suspect means something will suffer. It is clear that the Olympic sports podcasts are one area that is suffering. I miss being able to learn more about those programs

The article from when he stepped down. Cited spending time with his wife. Maybe she got sick of him around asked him to go back on the road LOL
