On this episode of DIBS, we sit down with legendary Chicago Bulls play-by-play announcer Adam Amin for an unforgettable deep dive into his journey—from growing up in Addison as a Bulls superfan to becoming the voice of the team he idolized.
Adam shares how it still gives him goosebumps to hear “Sirius” echo through the United Center, the dreamlike experience of calling buzzer-beaters next to Stacey King, and the honor of following in the footsteps of Chicago sports legends. We talk about the adrenaline of live sports broadcasting, what it was like calling games during COVID, and how he balances objectivity with hometown pride across the NBA, NFL, and MLB.
Plus, Adam opens up about his creative outlet—DJing—and how house music is just as much a part of Chicago’s soul as sports. From his love for tavern-style pizza to his family’s immigrant story and connection to the city, Adam’s story is full of heart, humor, and hometown love.
Whether you're a die-hard Bulls fan, a sports media junkie, or just love a great Chicago story—this episode is a slam dunk.
