He started calling in high school football reports to Austin's KNOW-AM at 16 years old. Stein was hooked, and pursued a career in broadcasting.
Stein moved to North Texas in 1984, enrolling in East Texas State University. Stein's career path took him to the Prime Sports Radio Network as a show host and reporter. He also spent two seasons as the play-by-play voice of the Dallas Sidekicks.
