What's up, everybody? Welcome to The Season with Peter Schroger. We have another episode on

our feed this week, and that's a long, extensive, in-depth interview with Michael Vick. Vic is incredible

in our sit-down. I work with Michael on the weekends on Fox NFL kickoff, but this season was kicked off

with a premiere of a movie that he's been working on for three years as a producer called

The Evolution of the Black Quarterback. We get into that. We get into a sit-down. He just

had with Jaden Daniels that's going to air on the Fox pregame shows this weekend. And we go down

memory lane of Michael Vic in Atlanta, early 2000s,

outcast is on the scene, ludicrous is on the scene, two chains is just coming out and where

Michael Vick fit in to the cultural landscape there in Atlanta during that time. And it's

introspective, and he's interesting in the response in that he felt such a burden and such a responsibility that, you know, there was pressure. It wasn't like he could enjoy it.

twice a season. He comes in and it is the NFL's network so he can come in and it's his network in a way

and we come in, but we do not get questions scripted for us. We are told to ask whatever we want

and to present him any questions that are currently of

mind, but also that might be long-term thinking. And oftentimes, these interviews with us make

news. We have that green light to ask him questions. And we just got wrapped with an episode on

Tuesday in which Goodell sat with us for about 15 minutes. I thought it was pretty insightful.

I wanted to bring that interview over to this feed, so our listeners to the pod can listen to the sit-down if you didn't catch it on Good Morning Football. The interviewers and the voices that you hear are myself. I'm the one who brings them in and asks the first question about the resurgence of the D.C. commanders, and I didn't know this. Roger grew up in the D.C. area.

Of course, his father was in government. So he grew up in D.C. So he has kind of a cool introspective response on that. The other voice you'll hear is Jamie Erdall, who is one of the
