Jason Kelce, Elle Duncan, and Laura Rutledge: Living Out My Dreams at ESPN Media Day
In this episode from ESPN Media Day, I interview the beloved Jason Kelce, the iconic Elle Duncan, and the inspirational Laura Rutledge
In this episode, I recap my incredible experience at ESPN Media Day 2024 and interview Jason Kelce, Elle Duncan, and Laura Rutledge. In my conversation with Jason, we discuss how he was raised to be an emotionally available man, how he’s entering his first season of retirement, and what he’ll miss the most (and the least) about playing. In my conversation with Elle, we discuss how she got into sports broadcasting, how she brings her best self to work (in a male-dominated industry), and how she makes her voice stand out amongst others. In my conversation with Laura, she shares how she juggles everything, embraces the chaos, and remembers all the stats and information accurately.
