“We do have a lot of new football fans coming in,” Travis shared at the Cannes Lions festival. “So not just talking football like we would in the locker room, trying to, like, necessarily dumb it down or make it more simple so that everybody can follow along and still enjoy the show.”
Jason added that he loves that the podcast is getting more girls “to get involved in a sport where previously there wasn’t much interest,” while also bringing dads and daughters together.
