Summary
Episode 482 of "SI Media with Jimmy Traina" features a conversation with the man who will call Super Bowl LVIII for CBS, Jim Nantz.
Nantz, who will be calling his seventh Super Bowl, talks about how he prepares for calling the big game, whether the massive number of viewers affects how he calls the game and whether he ever thought he'd see the day when there would be a Super Bowl in Las Vegas.

This week, Jimmy and Sal talk about the Grammy's, the season premiere of "Curb Your Enthusiasm," the WWE controversy involving Cody Rhodes, The Rock and Roman Reigns, Super Bowl betting and much more
