"When working with Andi, three things become glaringly apparent. She's extremely funny, has unmatched knowledge on whatever the subject is, and her bullshit barometer doesn't go very high. Just Call Me Andi has all these things and much more." — Craig McMorris, sports analyst and professional snowboarder
When Andi Petrillo decided to pursue a career in sportscasting, a woman offering her opinion on sports was still a novelty. She was constantly being criticized, scrutinized, and sexualized, but her love for sports — and her determination to prove she deserved to be doing what she loved — propelled her into a successful and historic career.
Just Call Me Andi shares many of the obstacles Petrillo's faced, as well as the incredible friendships she's made, and the lessons she's learned along the way. It also provides a behind-the-scenes look into the industry, explaining why editorial and broadcast decisions are often made and how the broadcasting world has evolved in the era of streaming and social media.
Petrillo's story is both heartbreakingly honest and deeply insightful, providing a roadmap for future broadcasters navigating similar challenges so that female voices in sport are the norm, not the exception.
