#552- Giuseppe Rossi, Puppy Sandwiches, and Winter Skeletons

from Verbal Shenanigans · host Verbal Shenanigans

"Pepito" joins the cast! From Teaneck, NJ to the top of the world. Today’s guest is a world-class talent who redefined what it meant to be a modern striker. Whether he was finding the back of the net in the Premier League, La Liga, or Serie A, he did it with a style and intelligence that was purely his own. We sit down and discuss the journey to Parma at 12 years old, playing for Sir Alex Ferguson at  Manchester United, reaching a "flow state" at the top of his game, the resilience to battle through multiple surgeries, and now life as a dad,  the Head of Soccer for the Cosmos, and the transition from player to coach. Let’s get into it with the one and only, Giuseppe Rossi.   We also discuss the fake outrage over the halftime show, discuss a former guest linked to the Epstein Files, dive into a true Olympic controversy, and discuss holidays decorations left up for way too long.  A great week of the show.
