Summary

EP #19: Cam is back fresh from his trip to Accra, Ghana, which he details on the latest episode of the Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast. Cam talks about the Super Bowl connection to his trip to Ghana, and how he got in trouble for what he did to security his first day. He’s then joined by his former teammate Jimmy Graham, who might be the most interesting man in the NFL. Jimmy talks about how cycling kept him in shape during his year hiatus from the game, and how getting hit by a car while cycling motivated him to return to the NFL. Known for his prowess as a pilot, Jimmy shares how he got Pete Carroll’s blessing to fly to work. He's an avid cyclist, an experienced sky diver and race car driver, but Jimmy tells Cam about his preparations for what could be his most death-defying feat yet, which he hopes will set a world record.
