468. The Story of Aaron Rodgers with Ian O’Connor

This week on Sports With Friends:

Aaron Rodgers is the subject of a new book. Rodgers will go down in history as one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the NFL. He is also one of the most controversial figures in sports today. Ian O’Connor is a longtime reporter and author of five previous books, including four straight New York Times bestsellers. His new book “Out of the Darkness – The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers,” is released the same week as this episode.

In this episode, O’Connor details the over 250 people he spoke to putting this book together. He also told the story of his meeting with Rodgers after completing the first manuscript. He covers his football greatness, but also Rodgers’ controversies including his anti-vaccination stance during COVID, his comments about comedian Jimmy Kimmel, and his potential running for office with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

O’Connor is making his third appearance on the podcast. His first was episode 166 promoting his Belichick book and episode 407 on the reported PGA-LIV golf merger.
