The AA Podcast returns after a bye week to ring in the beginning of a new NFL season with Fox NFL Sunday host Curt Menefee. Curt took over the reigns of America's #1 pregame show full time in 2007 and has been instrumental in the continued success of Fox NFL Sunday. Curt has also been more involved at Fox Sports in hosting the network's UFC and international soccer coverage. AA chats with Curt about numerous topics including...

-How important off-air relationships are to on-air chemistry.
-The keys to Fox NFL Sunday's continued success and how other pregame shows have duplicated their blueprint.
-What a typical 12 hour Sunday is like during the NFL season.
-The advice from former Fox Sports chairman David Hill when taking over the pregame job.
-His expanding role and Fox Sports into soccer and UFC versus being seen as an "NFL guy."
-Fox's longterm vision with global soccer.
-What we learned from the Saints, Redskins, Packers, and 49ers in Week 1.
-Is the buzz surrounding replacement refs an overreaction?
-The one player under the radar right now who may enter the dreaded "elite quarterback discussion" with his play this season.

All in all, a great podcast with Curt that touches on a variety of topics on the media side and in the sports world that's definitely worth your time.
