About Adam Ausland
Adam Auslund graduated from Biola University in 2006 with a bachelor’s of science degree in kinesiology (sports science) and has now worked at AM570 LA Sports for the last 10 years. He has co-hosted the FnA podcast since 2012, and has worked as the pre-, halftime and post-game host on the Clippers radio broadcast since 2017.

Adam grew up in Northern California, where he experienced the rare “sports-fan-hat-trick-of-death,” when all three of his teams lost the championship in the span of 18 months back in the early 2000s. You guessed it: the Kings (game 6), Giants and Panthers. He now deals with those mental scars by taking a less serious, more irreverent look at the sports world. He is inspired by his talk-show heroes, Petros Papadakis and Matt “Money” Smith, who host the “Petros and Money Show.”
