Show Notes
Considering this is podcast focusses a lot on fitness, it's surprising this happened sooner; our first professional athlete joins the show in the form baseball legend Chase Utley.
The World Series winner and six-time All Star player discusses how he kept in physical and mental shape across his 16-season career with Philadelphia Phillies and the Los Angeles Dodgers and how he made the transition into retirement from the sport.
Given Before the Lights' background in film and TV it would be rude not to delve into Chase's acting career (two appearances in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is 100% a career) and how it lead to a disastrous trip to watch Rob McElhenney's Wrexham FC, before Josh, Dave and George find out about his new role with Major League Baseball.
