Summary
On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former veteran linebacker and Super Bowl champion turned Hollywood screenwriter Spencer Paysinger joins Peanut and Roman. Spencer turned in a productive seven-year NFL career that included winning Super Bowl XLVI with the New York Giants. After retirement, he immediately found success as a Hollywood screenwriter with his hit show “All-American.” Spencer takes us on a journey from teaching himself screenwriting, to creating a hit network TV show. He also opens up about how he’s constantly working to gain respect as a writer and producer, and not as a football player working in Hollywood. Spencer also details us upcoming projects, and shares who made his personal Mount Rushmore of influence. All that, and more, in a conversation you don’t want to miss.
The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Radio
