A tall guy walks into a bar with a ginger mop on his head, one arm missing and says he wants to play Division I college hoops and perhaps even professionally. Bartender responds: "OK, let's see what we can do about that." And thus on Episode 12 of the Underbelly Sports Podcast we meet former Manhattan Jasper center Kevin Atlas, one of the most inspirational figures you'll ever come across. We also dish our fare share of NFL free agency talk, debate whether Duke has what it takes in 2019 and much more. So grab a seat and settle in!

The sports industry and the challenges faced therein are a microcosm of everyday life. Success, failure, domestic violence, love, hate and the list goes on. In all professions and walks of life, people make mistakes and the sports world is littered with them as well. Thus we dig into some of these issues in Episode 11 of The UnderBelly Sports Podcast - from the lawsuit settlement between Colin Kaepernick and the NFL to Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown and his knuckleheadedness to the NBA's previously unscathed Anthony Davis or the PGA Tour's Matt Kuchar - it's kinda going around. All of that and we also sit down for a fascinating chat with George Atallah of the NFL Players Association. So buckle up for Episode 11! 

The Oscar-winning film "Back To The Future" was groundbreaking because it explored the reality of its present-day time along with the challenges of the past through the eyes of a 5'4 inch actor, Michael J. Fox. And while Episode 10 of the UnderBelly Sports Podcast does not have Mr. Fox nor supporting actor Christopher Lloyd, we have been able to create an episode that both previews and reviews Super Bowl 53. Indeed, that's right - before and after! That's technology people. Plus, we bring in the Rams very tall and all-time leading passer Jim Everett for a look at the Super Bowl, talk big game ads, Maroon 5's halftime debacle and more. Quality broadcasting people. Let's do it. 

Smoking hot yet feeling sluggishly sluggish, the UnderBelly Sports Podcast returns for its semi-epic Episode 9 and welcomes hockey super agent Allain Roy - who reps more goalies in the NHL than any other agent - for a lively conversation about the league's youth movement, how the agent game has changed and the best hockey movies ever. Jamie Martin and Dr. Aaron Perlut also compare college QBs and delve into the Tua vs. Trevor debate, talk up the Tampa Bay Rays removing their upper deck seating due to their pitiful plight, examine the complexities of the NFL coaching carrousel, and debate whether Zion Williamson is the next LeBron James or Blake Griffin. Hold on for a semi-solid yet totally underwhelming ride! 

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up people! The NFL regular season has come to a semi-spectacular conclusion and the storylines have been, well, semi-spectacular.

We also delve into the meltdown in Washington as the Redskins, the NBA artists formerly known as the Bullets and Nationals had less-than-glorious 2018 campaigns; Pop Queen Jamie Pesek educates the boys about the Netflix sensation Bird Box and associated memes, as well as a whole lot more. Hang on for a fun ride. 

Should a professional sports franchise care about what are perhaps the poorly informed rantings of its fanbase? St. Louis Cardinals President Bill DeWitt joins Episode 7 of The UnderBelly Sports Podcast and addresses this topic - with a surprising take - as well as other key issues impacting the club past and present in a fascinating conversation. In a lively show, Jamie Martin and Dr. Aaron Perlut also delve into whether Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray is making the right choice by pursuing a baseball career, discuss whether Sports Illustrated's "Sportsman of the Year" honor should be reserved for individual humans and not teams nor horses, pop queen Jamie Pesek talks Hallmark movie stars, Coach Murray Ross drops in and much more. 

Does a 22 or 23-year-old man who makes a mistake deserve a to have a job or be banished from their desired profession? In the wake of the Washington Redskins signing of Reuben Foster after his arrest for domestic violence and the Kansas City Chiefs dispatching of Kareem Hunt when video surfaced of him physically assaulting a young woman - all while Colin Kaepernick cannot get a job for kneeling in support of his beliefs - we discuss this hot topic. Jamie and Dr. Aaron also talk to the man behind the most accurate quarterback in NFL history - New Orleans Saints QB coach Joe Lombardi, get a visit from legendary hoops coach Murray Ross for his "You Gotta Be Nasty" segment, a pop culture lesson on influencers from Jamie Pesek, fair weather fans, dog show coverage and more in a lively show taped in front of a live, all-nude studio audience.
