This week we get a behind the scene look at all things NBA bubble from the babysitting program Dan worked at to how he got some alone time with the Larry O’Brien trophy. Dans mission growing up was to always be around sports and from hearing about his journey you can tell he was destined to be in this position. During the episode we get a chance to ask Dan about his specialty in terms of sports injuries. We dive into the myth of being “injury prone,” and the seemingly superhuman healing abilities of some athletes. This was another long distance zoom session but with Dan bringing the energy It all came together. hope y’all enjoy it.
