EPISODE SUMMARY
This week I bring on Jeremy McFarlin, host of the Football Is Family podcast. He is a special guest, because he has been there since the beginning for me in my podcast journey. Jeremy was the first "non-freind or family member" that reached out and said he listened to the show, and he's been along for the ride ever since.

Growing up in Middle Tennessee, I didn’t have a pro football team that was close enough to me to feel a part of. My first memory of pro football was Super
Bowl 22. I picked the Broncos to win, and, even though they didn’t win, I followed them from that point on.
John Elway was (and is) my favorite player. I have played as the Broncos on Tecmo Bowl, Tecmo Bowl Super Bowl, Madden, and 2K Sports. I fondly remember the moments when the Broncos won Super Bowls 32 and 33.
Around this time, the Oilers came to Tennessee. I was hooked. I finally had a team just down the road from my home town of Bon Aqua. Oiler (and later Titans) mania hit this area. Jerseys, hats, footballs, merchandise, and several autographs later, I’m a Titans fan through and through.
THE FOOTBALL HISTORY DUDE BACKGROUND
The Football History Dude is a show dedicated to teaching NFL fans about the rich history of the game we all know and love. I’m your host, Arnie Chapman, and I’m just a regular dude that loves football and is a nerd when it comes to learning about history. I created this show to share the gridiron knowledge nuggets I gain from researching various topics about the history of the National Football League. Each episode I welcome you to climb aboard my DeLorean to travel back in time to explore the yesteryear of the gridiron, and yes, that’s a reference to the Back to the Future Movies.
