EPISODE SUMMARY

This week I talk to Chris Willis about his latest book, Bronko Nagurski: The Legendary Story of the Greatest Two-Way Fullback.

Bronko Nagurski is one of the names most often referred to on the Sports History Network when it comes to the yesteryear of the gridiron. I even highlighted Bronko in my 7th episode of the podcast, way back in the summer of 2018.

You can catch the first episode and a full transcript blog post here.

AUTHOR BIO

Chris Willis has been the Head Archivist at NFL Films (since 1996). He is the author of eight books on pro football history including The Man Who Built the National Football League: Joe F. Carr and Red Grange: The Life and legacy of the NFL’s First Superstar.

Willis won an Emmy for his work on HBO’s Hard Knocks and was a member of the Blue Ribbon Panel that selected the NFL’s 100th Anniversary All-Time Team (2019).

THE FOOTBALL HISTORY DUDE BACKGROUND

The Football History Dude is a show dedicated to teaching NFL fans about the rich history of the game we all know and love. I’m your host, Arnie Chapman, and I’m just a regular dude that loves football and is a nerd when it comes to learning about history. I created this show to share the gridiron knowledge nuggets I gain from researching various topics about the history of the National Football League. Each episode I welcome you to climb aboard my DeLorean to travel back in time to explore the yesteryear of the gridiron, and yes, that’s a reference to the Back to the Future Movies.
