This week, Jason is joined by four time Super Bowl champion, five time NFL Pro Ball selection, 11 year NFL Veteran, future first ballot football Hall of Famer, Rob Gronkowski!  

Rob is regarded as one, if not the best, tight end to ever play the game. He spent 11 years in the NFL playing for the New England Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers while earning a combined $70+ million in just NFL contract money. Contrary to the stigma of professional athletes going broke after their playing career, Rob put together a financial plan throughout his career that allowed him to strictly live off the money he made from endorsements, other revenue streams, and successfully invested his contract money for the future. 

Gronk gives insight to why he believes in playing all the sports while growing up and not specializing in one sport until college, how he knew he always wanted to be a pro in some sport, when and why he decided to cut back on partying, how he handles nervousness, and why he wanted to ensure that he could live off his NFL income for the rest of his life. Rob also reveals how he was a troublemaker growing up, why he's glad he didn’t go to a college with a bigger football program, why he doesn’t want to take anything for free, how he prefers to be low key when traveling, and how he ended up falling asleep on the floor during his pre-draft visit with New England. Who did Gronk predict would win the Super Bowl? Which misconceptions does Rob clear up about himself? When did he know that he was going to attend University of Arizona? What year did he not play football in college?

This week, Jason is joined by renowned talk show host, Steve Wilkos! 

Steve is best known for one of two things; being head security for the one and only Jerry Springer, or as the host of the long standing talk show, the Steve Wilkos Show, or both. What may not be known is Steve is a United States Marine Corps veteran and was a Chicago Police Department law enforcement officer for 14 years.  He has established himself as an authoritative figure and is known for his abrasive, yet constructive approach to helping guests on his show settle disputes and better themselves moving forward. 

Steve gives insights on the importance of being prepared when transitioning jobs,  how he balanced his police career and working security for Jerry Springer simultaneously, how he ended up getting his show due to Jerry Springer going on Dancing with the Stars, and working with his wife as his executive producer. Steve also reveals what role his father played in his decision to join the military and later law enforcement, why he decided to leave the police force, what kind of contract he had, and how the Steve Wilkos show stands apart from all the other talk shows on air. Does Steve make more revenue through the show or social media? Which security job did he turn down to stay at Springer? Which Survivor cast member helped Steve get higher pay while working with Jerry Springer? How much of an impact does he have on the whole production on his show as a host?
