Ep. 50: Don’t Play on the Freeway

from Pass It Down Hosted by Natalie Silver, Mike Silver

Why did Natalie get cut out of the family group chat on draft night? Did Kyle Shanahan do Matt LaFleur dirty? Can the disconnect between Aaron Rodgers and the Packers be bridged? What did Mike and John Elway do on a hotel balcony a few hours after the legendary quarterback’s last NFL game? Did Kyle change his mind about drafting Matt Jones because he caved to public perception? Will Jeff Darlington’s dad kick Mike’s ass? What small request do your humble podcast hosts have for their listeners? You have questions. We have answers.

Fresh off his first significant work trip in 14 months--to Denver, where he covered the Broncos’ draft (and got caught smack-dab in the middle of the Aaron Rodgers drama and the 49ers’ pre-draft hysteria)--Mike has no time for wannabe media flexers, Kyle Shanahan’s secrecy, people who value winning over friendship, perpetually working from home and a whole lot of other things. With Natalie drawing him out on a multitude of topics, including Matt LaFleur’s predicament, the Niners’ attempt to trade for Rodgers before drafting Trey Lance and John Elway’s thoughts on the Rodgers/Packers feud, Mike empties the notebook, unloads the chamber and issues a warning to all those who might be shook by his return to in-person journalism.
