    E4: Shantel Hansen

    On this weeks episode of Prior to the Snap, we take a different approach to the game of football as Mallory interviews the producer of Her Turf, Shantel Hansen. As an Anthropologist, Hansen's background in football has always been of a spectator, but in this short documentary, she follows three different female officials working their way up the ranks. We break down what the role of females look like in administering a game and what unique challenges they face. Females in sports, inspirations, future of different genders in football, and how important it is to share these women's stories are all topics expressed in this episode.

    E3: Steve Fifita

    What would you do when you put all your eggs into one basket....a basket that requires ALL your mental/physical/spiritual toughness...and then someone drops it to the floor right in front of you and all the eggs shatter? For Steve Fifita, my guest this week on the podcast, that was his exact reality when he went un-drafted for the NFL. Steve and I discuss his childhood and being the first child in his family born in the continental United States, his path to football proficiency, finding a way to pull yourself back up after falling down, and how crucial it is to have people in your corner that believe in you. Steve is an inspiration on not giving up what you love just because it didn’t go the path you wanted. Check out his new organization @im.press.on and all the movements he is making to rally behind mental health and overcoming the insecurities that haunt us all. Listen. Follow. Share.
