JuJu Smith-Schuster on Free Agency, Steelers Fans, and More, Plus Former Fighter Pilot Glenn Gonzales on Jet It | The Lefkoe Show

5/14/2021
33%, nowhere else in the podcasting world will you get two back-to-back interviews more different than these two, but we found both to be equally illuminating and fascinating! First, we've got young wide receiver stud JuJu Smith-Schuster of the Pittsburgh Steelers, talking about everything from Charmin toilet paper to why he took (significantly) less money to return to the Steelers after a divisional rival offered him quite the hefty sum. And then, we've got former college basketball standout turned US Air Force fighter pilot turned entrepreneur Glenn Gonzales, who regales us with his fascinating journey to founding a new company that provides shockingly affordable private jet rides to his clients. It's the NFL offseason, 33%, and we will always strive to find new, interesting, off-the-beaten-path guests that we all can learn from. Hope you all enjoy!
