710 ESPN Seattle has announced that morning host and former NFL and College Football Quarterback Brock Huard is launching a new podcast titled Above and Beyond – The Intersection of Faith and Sports. The podcast will be presented bi-weekly, and the debut episode is now available (click here to hear it) and features former Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck as Huard’s first guest.
“I am thrilled to get to share my life and faith in a way I never have before, through the medium of podcasts, and even more so through relationships that have shaped my journey,” said Huard. “Through my years as an athlete, in real estate, and now in the media world, I have always thirsted for deep rooted relationships. These podcasts will dig into those encounters with athletes like you’ve never heard before. I’m grateful for the support I’ve received from both Bonneville and Compassion International.”
“710 ESPN Seattle is proud to collaborate with Brock using the powerful platform of a podcast,” said VP/GM Dave Pridemore. “This endeavor is enriched by our partnership with Compassion International, a Christian humanitarian organization, dedicated to the long-term development of children living in poverty around the world. Ultimately our goal is to be the inspiration for the sponsorship of at least 1000 children by the end of 2017.”
