Glad to see that my fellow Liverpool High School Track & Cross Country Team Alumnus is doing great things out in the world, and also pleased that you featured him here.
However, in listening to the broadcast I felt horrible because you kept mispronouncing his name - its Prah-Kah-sh. Not prack-ish!
Its pronounced:
Prah like the pr in proud, but with an a instead of an O
Kah, like a heavy Boston accent saying Car.
and Sh.
I only bother to correct you because as someone with an equally funky/fun name, I get mispronunciations all the time. And if as you say we will continue to hear of him in this way, you’ll have to know how to say his name!
Keep up the good reporting!
