It’s a lively debut episode! Former Pro Bowl offensive lineman Jon Runyan joins co-hosts Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper to discuss his many second acts, including his run as a two-term congressperson in New Jersey (1:30), and what he’s most proud of during his time in Washington, DC (11:37). Jon also revealed why, of all the jobs he could have, he decided to do a stint as an Uber driver (17:01), and a hint…it wasn’t because he needed money. He also talked about his path to his current role with the NFL (21:10). Peanut and Roman have fun with Jon and find out what his splurge purchase was when he was drafted (26:01), his favorite playing moment in the NFL (26:14) who’s on his personal Mount Rushmore (27:11), and why he calls his life “awesome” (28:36). Jon also shares his daily affirmations, and how they’ve guided his positive outlook since his NFL playing days ended (31:21).
