The voice on the other end

Hey, I'm
Donny.

I'm Donny McGuire, a producer and host with more than 20 years spent making stories happen on set and in the field. Those long days gave me a lot of friends, a few unbelievable stories, and a reason to turn the mic around.

Go for Donny! brings the behind-the-scenes tales into the open. Switch to Channel 2 lets the conversation wander further. If you love the people and the decisions behind what you see on screen, you're in the right place.
