Summary

Dale Earnhardt Jr. gets an in-depth look into the world of professional gaming as he sits down with renowned Madden NFL player Civil. Born Kenny Cox in Michigan, Civil began playing Madden at age 16 and quickly rose to prominence after winning some highly publicized tournaments. His road forward wasn’t clear, though, and for a time, he began working at FedEx while attending college, pursuing a degree in criminal justice. Eventually, he’d pick the game back up and took to teaching other players how to better their game, which launched his social media empire that he operates today.
