Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlin

This week we have a Super Bowl MVP joining Dadville. Nick Foles recently retired from the NFL after an 11-year career that had him breaking more records than a caffeinated bull in a vintage vinyl shop. He joins the fellas to discuss the finer points of coaching his daughter's flag football team, transitioning to life as an ex-player, and his new DAD SZN brand. Join us: http://dadville.substack.comAG1 - Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D3K2 AND 5 free AG1 Travel Packs with your first subscription at http://drinkAG1.com/dadvilleMethodical Coffee - Receive 20% off your first bag and 10% off all subsequent bags.
