Podcast Hell with Erick Hellwig

Mike McMahon was a fun QB to watch, period. 3-11 in his 14 starts, but he was a scrambler who had 3 come from behind victories. Forged in the flames of the football mecca known as Rutgers, McMahon carved out a NFL career that would make most 5th round draft picks jealous. Dude almost caused the Lions to pass on Joey Harrington. What a sliding doors moment that would have been, no? Did you guys like Sliding Doors? We also cover Jeff Garcia baby, Star Wars nerds, and plenty of other stuff I already forgot. Plus, who are the California Redwoods?

Chase Daniel is a great guy. Family man. Follower of The Lord. I'm not, but that's not the point. Dude dominated in college, brought Missouri to the next level, and has been in the NFL for 14 years. This guy has netted 42 million dollars throwing only 8 TD's. Chase Daniel is needs his chance. We discuss his comeback against the Lions, his competition this year with the Chargers, eating boogers and more. Plus some NFL and college power rankings. This is an episode you don't want to miss, unless you do, in which case get out of here. No one's holding a gun to your head, it's a podcast.

Who doesn't love a good YouTube video? On this episode of Bring In The Backups, I talk to no guests, chat about the criminally under-rated Matt Flynn, and most importantly, record the entire thing on video and post it on my YouTube page. The fans and guests have been on me for a while now to start recording these bad boys, so I finally did it. This will be the norm moving forward! Matt Flynn is a great topic for the show. Cowboys comeback. 6 TD game. Super Bowl champ and a National Champion at LSU. This guy made the most of his talents. You should watch me talk about him by subscribing to my YouTube page!

Curtis Painter works for Indiana Liquor Group. Before that, he worked for Mustard Seed Gardens. And before that, he was a NFL quarterback. On this podcast, we cover all three in a deep dive on the man that once held off Dan Orlovsky for 8 glorious weeks in 2011. Dude had a cannon. Boilermaker for life. The Curtis Painter story is a tale worth telling. Liz Galalis drops in on the podcast for a bit to help field some voicemails from Backup Nation. I also take some time to talk about filming a short stand-up special last week, the latest Blake Bortles snub, Dwayne Haskins, Matty Ice, getting too high and why people who put chips in their brain aren't relatable. A quick hour with some big laughs. Hope you check it out.
