Summary

On episode 23, Shannon welcomes in 1998 Heisman trophy winner, 2002 NFL rushing yards leader, yoga instructor, astrologer & host of the Curious Questions podcast: Ricky Williams.

Ricky discusses choosing the University of Texas over USC, playing minor league baseball and college football, being drafted by the Saints, signing with Master P’s agency, and his 2002 First-Team All-Pro and Pro Bowl season with the Dolphins.

He talks Shannon through his experience failing two drug tests in Miami, retiring early from the NFL and traveling the world on a journey of self-discovery before returning to the league. He discusses how astrology, yoga, and cannabis have helped him reconnect with his spiritual side, and how his career might have panned out differently if he didn’t receive so much negative attention.

Ricky’s football career is known both for his on-the-field accolades and the heavy media scrutiny over his early retirement. In this honest & candid conversation, Ricky tells his side of the story.
