The Rebound 915 Podcast shares how El Paso history is recorded before it is lost

The Rebound 915 Podcast, hosted by Doug Rutter in El Paso, preserves the stories behind the Borderland’s defining moments through firsthand conversations with the people who lived them. Athletes, coaches, entrepreneurs, civic leaders and artists share the setbacks, relationships and decisions that headlines and final scores often leave out.

Rutter's approach starts with the people who lived the moments. The conversations are built to capture the setbacks, relationships and decisions that headlines and final scores can leave out. Episodes are organized by season and special edition, so related stories stay together. Season 1, Origins of Resilience, covers the people who helped shape El Paso sports culture. Season 2, Legends, Leaders and Legacy, features coaches and figures behind Borderland moments. Special editions focus on single subjects, including The Trooper Edition on the 50-year legacy of the 1976 Eastwood Troopers state basketball championship, 66 CHAMPS on the 1966 Texas Western Miners, an edition on Hall of Fame coach Don Haskins, and an episode with El Paso world champion Stephanie Han. A Legacy and Leadership edition covers discipline, accountability and purpose. Publishing on more than one platform keeps the recordings easy to find for listeners.

First-hand accounts of local sports and civic history exist mainly with the people who were there. The Rebound 915 Podcast records those accounts directly. The podcast is part of The Rutter Organization, which started as an El Paso tax practice in 1988 and now covers tax services, investments, real estate, media, historical preservation and philanthropy, with offices in El Paso and Las Vegas. The podcast's work has drawn outside coverage. The US News highlighted the podcast on September 25, 2026, noting how it preserves the stories behind El Paso's defining moments. On October 15, 2026, El Paso Inc. published a feature by Steve Escajeda on Doug Rutter's sports and music memorabilia collection, which began with a Charlie West autograph his father gave him at age 10.
