The Schrager Hour: Premier Episode with featured guest Sean Payton

The Schrager Hour, Peter Schrager's new ESPN/Omaha Productions produced podcast, starts with an in-depth interview with  Broncos Head Coach Sean Payton. Payton hits on high expectations in Denver this season, his thoughts on the Micah Parsons trade, his experience working for Jerry Jones in Dallas, and a revelation that he came very close to being the head coach of the Oakland Raiders back in 2003. Payton, just five days before the start of the season, hits on lessons from Bill Parcells, Jon Gruden, and the many men who helped influence him and his coaching style.

Plus, Peter sits with his longtime friend Logan Swaim, Chief Content Officer at The Volume, to discuss the latest in sports media, the crossover between sports and pop culture, and Peter’s big transition to ESPN. Logan and Peter then go through their season predictions for the 2025 NFL campaign.
