Former NFL WR turned media mogul Brandon Marshall joins Peanut and Roman to share old war stories and talk about how he’s all-in when it comes to his post-football business ventures. Brandon shares what it was like making his way as a young player struggling with his own mental health in addition to what he thinks was one of the Bears' biggest mistakes back in those days. He also reflects on how amazing it was to play with so many great players throughout the years, why it was so important for him to set things up for life after football in the middle of his career, and what it has been like for his wellness company House of Athlete to partner with Tom Brady’s TB12. The guys also sit down with former football players turned entrepreneurs Andrew Hawkins and Troy Jones. Andrew and Troy are leading the way in football VR with their company StatusPro and they talk about how their backgrounds playing the game ultimately led to their passion in the video game sphere. They also discuss what it's like being African-American in a space in which there is not much representation and ultimately how they hope StatusPro as well as the game NFL Pro Era will change the video game industry.
