Lindsay Zarnack has spent her career covering the biggest stories in sports for networks,

including ESPN and Fox Sports. Along the way, she has become fascinated by the intersection

of sports and music. As the saying goes, athletes want to be rock stars, rock stars want to be

athletes. For both, the climb to the biggest stage is similar. What drives them and the challenges

they overcome are not. Each episode of the artist and the athlete pairs a prominent sports figure

alongside a renowned musician for an intimate, wide-ranging conversation that explores their

path to success, their process, and their passions went away from the big stage. Featuring guests

like Danica Patrick, Alanis Morissette, Clayton Kershaw, Brad Paisley, Shaq, The Chain Smokers,

Eddie Vedder, Anthony Rizzo, and more. New episodes every Tuesday, wherever you get your podcasts.

happens to come all the time too. And I'm like, what's going on? No, it's like there's been times

where literally I look at my base players going. He's like plan and he's like,

and I'll like turn around and I'll just turn around and hope that nobody's got

easy to deal with. If you are making dinner for Alan or Kimberly, what are you making?

For Alan, we'd order out. There's no way I'd put Alan through that.
