What better way to kick off a sports movie podcast than a movie that isn't technically about sports?
Welcome to Running it Back! In this week's episode we're talking about (sports) Forrest Gump, a film about a man we'd *correctly* argue to be the best three-sport athlete of all time (that's four if you count his pro wrestling career). Hosts Jeff Nowak and Yourgo Artsitas dive into the film about the former Alabama football All-American who really wasn't that good at football, then instant ping pong phenom, then casual ultra-ultra-ultra marathoner. He also likes chocolate, but apparently throws away the handy map under the lid.
Enjoy! Remember to rate, review and subscribe -- and let us know your suggestions on movies to hit going forward!
