    #74: Only .08% Make the NFL… Here’s What Happens After - ft. Chris Odom

    Text Shellda a quick review and he might post it on his IG story! Former NFL defensive end Chris Odom has lived a life that only 0.08% of high school football players ever reach... making it to the National Football League. His story goes far deeper than football. In this episode of The Shellda Podcast, Chris opens up about life beyond the field: the reality of playing in the NFL, the mental battle of tearing his ACL, and how he rebuilt his career across multiple professional leagues. We also dive into the most important part of Chris’s life — being a father. His daughter Cassidy was born with osteogenesis imperfecta (brittle bone disease) and has experienced over 100 bone fractures in her young life. Chris shares how becoming her father changed his mindset forever and gave him a deeper purpose both on and off the field. We also talk about Chris’s unexpected love for paintball, how the sport brought him back during COVID, and what it means to see professional paintball played inside an NFL stadium. This episode is about identity, resilience, family, and what it really means to use your platform for something bigger than sports.

    #71: 9X Marathon Winner Explains Life as the .001% of the world ft Joey Whelan

    Text Shellda a quick review and he might post it on his IG story! Out of 8 billion people on earth, less than 1% will ever run a marathon… and an even smaller number will ever win one. In this episode of The Shellda Podcast, I sit down with elite marathon runner Joey Whelan, the winner of the Austin Marathon, to explore the mindset, sacrifice, and obsession behind competing at the highest level of endurance sports. We talk about: • What runners actually think about during a marathon • The mental battle between miles 18–26 • Training through brutal winters and treadmill miles • Why winning a marathon still doesn’t silence self-doubt • Running as identity, therapy, and obsession • The moment Joey proposed to his wife at the Austin Marathon finish line If you're a runner, aspiring marathoner, or someone chasing excellence in any field, this episode will give you a raw look into what it takes to operate at the elite level.

    #70: Thank You Paintball

    Text Shellda a quick review and he might post it on his IG story! I think it's time. I've hinted at it for a few months.  After 70+ episodes inside the world of paintball, this is a conversation I’ve been wrestling with for months. Paintball gave me everything... my identity, my voice, my photography career, awards I never could have dreamed of, my best friends, and this podcast. But somewhere along the way, I realized this show became something bigger than the sport. In this episode, I share why I’ll be bringing on guests outside of paintball: entrepreneurs, creators, athletes, and high-level performers, and everyone in between; while keeping paintball at the core of who I am. This isn’t me leaving the sport. This is me expanding because of it. ---- Shop BFPGear here:  https://www.blackfridaypaintball.com Want 10% off on ProDNA gear?  https://infamouspaintball.com/SHELLDAPHOTOS Grab Shellda's Book here:  https://a.co/d/bG1hU8e ----- Support the show
