Summary
Peter starts the podcast with his thoughts on the New England Patriots' awful start to the 2024 season and why Bill Belichick's omnipresent media presence makes it all the more magnified. Then, filmmaker Neil Zender joins the podcast to discuss his new film, "The Duke: The Giant Life of Wellington Mara." Described by Michael Strahan as "The Forrest Gump" of NFL history, Mara lived a football life that can't be matched. Peter and Neil nerd out on the "The Duke," and discuss one of the most important people in sports history.
