In this episode, Nathan is joined by John 'Jabo' Burrow and Kathleen Bachynski to talk about the horrific run of football-related deaths at US schools. Nathan explains what has transpired before jumping in with Jabo to discuss his reactions and how they relate to his own experiences in and observations of football. Then Kathleen joins to help relate the current issue to her research in No Game For Boys To Play about the history of youth football and public health. The three then try to dig deeper into the social, cultural, and political implications.

John “Jabo” Burrow is a former offensive lineman at Vanderbilt University who retired during his successful career as a starter due to the consequences of head injury and incredibly astute analyst of the harms of football. Kathleen Bachynski is Assistant Professor of Public Health at Muhlenberg College and author of the definitive book on the history of public health and youth football: No Game For Boys To Play: The History of Youth Football and the Origins of a Public Health Crisis.
