Jose Mangin didn’t choose a career. He built a life around what he loved.

In this episode of No Wrong Choices, we explore the career journey of someone who doesn’t simply work in music, but has built a global community around it.

Long before SiriusXM ever went on the air, Jose was already there — helping shape the first rock and metal channels, loading the earliest music into the system, and laying the groundwork for what would become a home base for metal fans. But the path that brought him there wasn’t safe or obvious. Jose was on track for a conventional future in science when he made the decision to walk away and chase something that barely existed yet.

That leap led him into the earliest days of satellite radio, onto festival stages, and into the lives of the artists he once idolized — including years working closely with Ozzy Osbourne and building relationships that brought heroes into his real world.

In this conversation, Jose shares the risks he took, the moments that changed everything, and what he’s learned about building real community by staying close to the people you serve.

It’s a story about belief, identity, and what can happen when you commit fully to what you love — and keep showing up long enough to build something real.

What does it take to grow up in South Central Los Angeles, avoid the pitfalls of gang life, and rise to a 12-year NFL career? In this best-of edition of No Wrong Choices, we revisit our conversation with Curtis Conway — former wide receiver for the Bears, Chargers, Jets, and 49ers, and later a broadcaster with the NFL and Pac-12 Networks.

But this isn’t just a football story. In Part One, Curtis offers a deep and honest look at growing up in South Central at a time of intense violence and uncertainty — and how he found ways to learn from that environment rather than be consumed by it. He explains how the lessons of the street — toughness, leadership, resilience — became the foundation for his career and his life.

From his first love of basketball to his unexpected transition from quarterback to wide receiver at USC, Curtis’s story is about far more than the game. It’s about mentality, perseverance, and finding what you truly love — even when the odds are stacked against you.
