Episode 456 of "SI Media with Jimmy Traina," features two interviews. First up is ESPN college football analyst, Greg McElroy.
McElroy talks about getting promoted to ESPN's No. 2 crew where he will work with Sean McDonough and call a national championship playoff game. McElroy also discusses working with Joe Tessitore and Dave Pasch in past years, why he has to be overprepared to call a game and how long it took him to get comfortable in the booth.
McElroy, who played at Alabama, also talks about what makes Nick Saban tick, how the Crimson Tide will do this season, which team could surprise some people in 2023 and which college football quarterback is flying under the radar. McElroy closes out his appearance on the podcast with a hilarious Tim Tebow story.
Following McElroy, comedian Jared Freid, who has a Netflix special out, "37 & Single," joins the podcast. Freid talks about the business of comedy, how he puts together a special, using his parents for material, his favorite comedians, whether Bill Belichick is funny, what's funny about college football and much more.
