Critics Review
“Just Call Me Andi is the perfect chronicle of what it takes to rise through the sports broadcasting ranks with grace. Andi brilliantly captures the highs and lows of her trailblazing journey from athlete to reporter with the same signature wit, intelligence, and honesty that have made her a favourite with audiences. They’ll love her even more as she pulls back the veil on a life dedicated to one great passion. And she’s only getting started. A fabulous read!” — Kristen Shilton, NHL reporter, ESPN
“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. These are traits I truly admire in a person and in a book. Just Call Me Andi has all these things and much more.” — Craig McMorris, sports analyst and professional snowboarder
“I love to see hard work and perseverance pay off, and it has with Andi. She’s one of the top broadcasters in Canada, but also one of the most authentic and relatable. It’s what had me excited to read this book. The sports world might provide the setting for many of her stories, but it was also easy to connect with them on a human level.” — Sara Orlesky, sports broadcaster
“Andi is not only the most talented broadcaster I’ve ever worked with, but also the hardest worker, best mentor, and — more generally speaking — the coolest person. Now she’s written a book that puts all that on display.” — Hailey Salvian, sportswriter, The Athletic
