    Incredible episode. People need to stop skipping over episodes that don't have that HUGE name because you think it will be boring. My rule with these pods is, get at least 15 minutes in and see if it hits you by that point. I got there and then just kept going.

    • @YaboiPerky

      They just set really high expectations with the first few episodes. So many legends on, it’s hard to keep up that pace

      😂 Ryan Leaf was a huge name. Anybody who know anything would know his story would be intriguing.

    I'm glad Ryan Leaf is alive to tell this story. Addiction is a vicious cycle that hurts you & the closest ones to you. Hope someone takes the time out to watch this and learn from Ryan Leaf. Matt Barnes & Stephen Jackson did a great job conducting this interview.

  • @lhart99
    @lhart99 Před 7 měsíci +2

    Ryan is dropping so many gems in this podcast. I suffer from mental illness mainly bipolar + self-harming behavior, and learning disabilities. On top of all that, I'm homeless. But like Ryan said, wake up with a purpose. And that's exactly what I do, even if it means just making it through the day in one piece. I hope everyone out there takes some positive stuff from Ryan's story.

    Lifelong wazzu fan. Was a freshman when Ryan took us to the Rose bowl. Watched my pops shed a tear when we beat UDub in the Apple Cup (thank you Chris Jackson, Leaf, the whole fab and fat five). Watched Leaf through it all. Never been more proud of him than we are today. Stay the course my friend. Wazzu always has your back brother. Can’t wait to see the doc.

    Ryan Leaf's ghetto pass is officially reinstated, permanently. Gotta go grab his throwback & rep the man more the QB who went 2nd in the draft. He's a real 1

  • @reueldaniel4995
    @reueldaniel4995 Před 2 lety +9

    I'm from the Caribbean and I try to listen to sports content that is outside what I grew up play, so NFL content can be a bit of a stretch to absorb but I find myself glued because this dude is so sincere and I'm getting emotional and then the man's manscape ad comes on and now instead of tears and on the floor laughing. Those ads are so hilarious 😂

    • @mikey-domagala
      @mikey-domagala Před 2 lety

      F A C T S! I believe the NBA does have role models like that, but, the NFL? Not sure. Right now it seems like more NFL players go down a bad road than NBA players. Could be how Adam Silver treats his players or because there’s way less players. Not sure.

    This was an incredible episode. I remember Ryan Leaf from Washington State he was a great college football player but his demons took his career and his life. Almost took his life. I'm glad to see he's sober he's a family man and is on the right path. Thank Stak and Matt on this episode. It was needed.

    Great job, great story from from Ryan Leaf. The beginning of his lifestyle, to becoming an NFL star n going thru what Ryan went to in Montana, going to jail to show people how to read at the age of 50 years old n what his life was. That is an awesome interview by Ryan Leaf. Matt & Stephen, thank U again for another great show. I enjoy ur shows, u guys have a platform n what I like is it ain't like ESPN or TNT. U guys R on the real with ur guest & ur show. Fellas, keep it up man n continue to strive for more great shows. Thanks Again. God Bless!!!

    Love seeing Ryan build himself to be the person he is today! He was so young, back then; we all would have thought we were the shit too and not had the mental capacity to deal with our "bad days". Anywhere this guy speaks, just to hear his story and to have seen some of what he went through, I hope young people can listen and take some guidance from him! Bravo! Amazing conversation and epi!

      It always stands out to me when I hear somebody say they had a certain impression of somebody else, until they heard their life story and then thought better of them.. that should be a life lesson for us all to seek more understanding in life and try our best to understand somebody else's experiences before judging them. Peace and blessings to you
