Dave Ward & Friends Season 2 - Episode 14: John W. Mecom Jr. Pt. 2
John W. Mecom Jr and Dave went so deep last week, we had to do a 2nd broadcast. As we learned last week, Mecom’s expertise, Houstonian knowledge and pride, and love of sports, is near and dear to Dave’s heart.
There’s more business talk, NFL, and NASCAR. From the New Orleans Saints to Mecom Racing, with names like Penske, Foyt, and Stewart. These are two Houston experts talking their favorite interests, and if you’re a fan of Dave Ward, or major sporting events, these two are incredibly knowledgeable.

Dave Ward & Friends Season 2 - Episode 13: John W. Mecom Jr.
Get your dose of Houston business acumen this week. Not only is John W. Mecom Jr. the chairman of his father’s John W. Mecom company, but John also was the youngest owner in the NFL in 1967 when he purchased the New Orleans Saints. Dave will ask about Mecom Racing that successfully competed throughout the U.S. with such drivers as Roger Penske, Pedro Rodriguez, AJ Foyt and Jackie Stewart.
Mecom’s expertise, Houstonian knowledge and pride, and love of sports, is near and dear to Dave’s heart. And you’ll learn why when you listen.

Last week you heard what happens when two legendary, local Houston broadcasters get together with a combined on-air experience of almost 100 years.
In this episode, Dave continues reminiscing with the former “Good Morning Houston” host, Don Nelson.
