Jason Romano spent 17 years at ESPN, producing for SportsCenter, NFL Countdown, and College GameDay. In Part One, he shares what it was really like behind the scenes—walking the halls with legends, geeking out with Darryl Strawberry, and spending a surreal day escorting Will Ferrell through the studios. He also opens up about the identity struggle that came with the job and how a question directly from Coach Tony Dungy started to change everything. This is a fun, thoughtful, and deeply human episode you won’t want to miss.
