E221 | Jack Crawford: A 10-Year NFL Vet’s Take On What Makes a Great Coach, Learning From Failure & World Travel

Jack Crawford isn’t your ordinary 10 year NFL vet… and this just might be one of the most interesting episodes to date. 

On today’s show, Jack takes us on a journey from his childhood playing cricket and the *real* football in the streets of London to gorilla trekking in Uganda (with a few stops in professional football along the way). 

We discuss everything from his unconventional views on good coaching to becoming self-aware at a young age, learning from failure, navigating politics on social media and even the experience of going to the same high school as Harry Potter (aka Daniel Radcliffe).
