Welcome back to Redirected Everybody. For those of you who are new, this is an interview

series where we sit down with people who have started their career or life path on one

trajectory and have gotten redirected into a completely different field than what they

started off doing. And so I just want to stop and again thank you guys for letting me

take an hour up of your time. I've really enjoyed the interaction that I've gotten to

have with all of you who have submitted questions. I wanted to call out a fan of the week and

this week it is Jennifer McKay who has been super consistent in asking questions via my

Instagram. For those of you who don't follow me already that's where I typically get

the questions and post the content surrounding the interviews. I would love to meet you

guys on there. But today's guest is super, super special. It's an Olympic gymnast. I know

you guys aren't surprised, but this Olympic gymnast I actually met before my wife, Sean.

Sam Pejik is an Olympian. She's an NCAA champion and she's also a fellow Hoosier. And if you don't

know what that means listen to the show and you'll find out. But I really enjoyed this

conversation of how she went from gymnastics to broadcasting. Enjoy this one everybody.

Sam, thank you so much for joining us on the show. Super excited to have you. Thank you for having me.

This is so exciting. I always like to start off by kind of finding common ground and one huge

thing that you and I share in common is our passion for the Colts. Yes. Yeah. I was going to say home.

I was going to like end your sentence, but I'm glad I didn't because I was going to say hometown,

but you're right. The Colts. Well, I feel like the Colts are the biggest thing that come from our

hometown. And Sam and I both grew up in Indianapolis, Northside. And kind of I wouldn't call our

high schools rivals, but we definitely interacted. We probably bumped into each other at some events.

And I actually knew you just went back. I knew Sam before I knew Sean. So that's pretty crazy.
