Matt Zanellato, former D1 Penn State Football player, talks about how fucking awesome his family is, while I talk my dysfunctional family. We address strong women, particularly women in STEM and Matt discusses his aunt, Serena Auñón-Chancellor who is arguably one of the most bad ass women alive, as well as his mom.

We discuss 9/11 and living around/growing up in D.C., toxic masculinity and having younger sisters, and then of course, he fires me up about epidemiology.

We also touch on football culture and athlete star power in general, which will be built upon with the next episode released in which he is featured.

Hopefully he will let me include his entire family in future episodes because this was honestly so much fun to record. I was fed a delicious family meal MADE by a man (10/10–they belong in the kitchen) AND got to participate in a holistic family discussion amongst educated, civil minded folk who genuinely know what they’re talking about. It was glorious.

Here is the link to information about his Aunt:
