Join Johnny Stanton and co-host Travis Reaves as they welcome Dropout star Grant O'Brien to Athletics Check and see what happens when a comedian and a former college football QB get together to talk sports and nerd culture.  We welcome the incredibly funny Grant O'Brien and discuss Grant's love for Ohio State football (even though he kinda hates them 😅), the art of improv, and the surprising parallels between performing and playing sports.  

Johnny also shares some big life updates, including his upcoming video game, Scrub Squad!

Whether you're a sports fanatic, comedy nerd, or somewhere in between, this episode proves that passion transcends categories. As Johnny says, "nerdiness is just a synonym for passion" - and this conversation has plenty of both!
