This is a very special episode, slices. Sarah is joined by Raiders running backs coach Deland McCullough, the co-author and subject of her new book, Runs in the Family: An Incredible True Story of Football, Fatherhood, and Belonging. They discuss the writing process, the sometimes uncomfortable act of excavating your past, reactions from Deland’s friends and family, his emotions ahead of launch day, and the serendipitous circumstances of his new job with the Raiders.
