Chuck Todd Dec 04, 2025

Show notes

For 20 years, Chuck Todd has been a ubiquitous face of politics in the United States, most visibly as the host of Meet the Press through the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations. Now, as traditional media struggles to keep up with the digital age, he's left it behind.

On South Beach Sessions, Chuck unwraps the influence of his father on his career - that's where his love of politics (and sports) came from - and explains why, growing up, he never thought he'd be a journalist. He and Dan also discuss the frailty of our current media ecosystem, reminisce a bit about the (better) old days, and what's next. Listen, watch, and subscribe to "The Chuck Toddcast".

Max Greenfield Nov 20, 2025

Show notes

It's hard not to love Max Greenfield. Max talks to Dan Le Batard about going from being a struggling student in school to more than a decade of "slumming around the gutters of Hollywood" trying to make it as an actor... and nearly calling it quits after becoming a father before his big break on the beloved show, "New Girl". The star of "The Neighborhood" also shares how fatherhood changed his approach to life and acting, the importance of appreciating the little things, why he was so terrified to work with Ted Danson and Mike Schur, and how the pandemic led him to becoming a children's author.

Vince Wilfork Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

Vince Wilfork is a natural born leader.

The five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle, two-time Super Bowl champion, and BCS national champion never faced an opponent he couldn't handle on the field - a credit to his parents and the challenges his family had to overcome. Vince takes Dan through telling his parents he was gonna be an NFL player at an early age, to losing them in college, and what it was like to realize they'd never be able to see him accomplish his dreams. Vince and Dan also dive into the feeling of having Bill Belichick call him the “captain of the captains, the true leader of the team” and “the best defensive lineman I’ve ever coached - that's player, leader, on the field, off the field, practice player." Vince also talks about being a key part of the Patriots' dynasty, his relationship with Belichick and Tom Brady, and how in retirement, he's honoring his father with his own line of barbeque sauce, GHI75. To get your own bottle of Wilfork's signature, delicious, gluten-free barbeque sauce, go to TheGHI75.com
