Ted Williams, a 53-year old homeless man from Columbus, Ohio was standing next to the interstate in his hometown when a newspaper reporter stopped to talk to him. The reporter recorded a video of Williams talking in his 'God-given' radio voice and posted it on the Internet. Job offers have been bombarding Williams ever since including offers from the Cleveland Cavaliers and NFL Films. Williams claims to be a former radio announcer that became hooked on alcohol and drugs, eventually leaving him without a home or money. His 90-year old mother, Julia, is skeptical of his new-found fame, but still supports her son. Williams is still undecided about what job offer to accept, but no matter where he chooses, his life has surely been changed forever.
