Summary

April 22, 2016 - The guys unveil long-awaited official Musers merch, complete with shirts, hats, tumblers, and perhaps the greatest promotional item in podcast history: a free pennant. The Musers hit a milestone episode with a heavyweight guest as Troy Aikman joins the podcast for a wide-ranging and surprisingly candid conversation. Troy talks Cowboys frustration, working with the Dolphins, life with Joe Buck, staying in elite shape at 59, and why hot yoga might be tougher than winning a Super Bowl. Along the way, he reflects on Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer, his brutal 1-15 rookie season, and the strange art of surviving fame in Dallas. Also included: obscure Oklahoma football references, red light therapy confusion, and Gordo somehow landing “Coach Billy Ho” from 40 years ago. Learn more about your ad choices.
