Summary
NOTE: This episode originally aired July 11, 2023.
Lions GM Brad Holmes had to take an unorthodox path to his current position as GM, but used the life lessons obtained along the way to empower him on his journey. Holmes discusses his time as an Enterprise Car Rental employee, his work as a media relations intern with the Atlanta Hawks, and the many mentors who urged him to keep going. He also takes us through the first round pick selections of Jahmyr Gibbs and Jack Campbell, and why Mock Drafts don’t mean as much as we make them out to. Good stuff on the scouting of Aaron Donald, the toughness of Jared Goff, and the promise of the 2023 Detroit Lions.

| 1:12.9 | But if you follow the league and you love the game like I do, you know there is no days off when it comes to an NFL season. |
| 1:17.9 | This podcast has been a blast this summer because we're getting coaches and GMs in their homes and we're getting them at their vacation houses and we're getting them maybe a little bit off the clock, |
