Host Andrea Kremer takes us back to 1999 when NFL Films Steve Sabol interviewed Hall of Famer Jim Brown. In Part 2 of the interview, we dive deeper in Jim's life as an athlete, actor, and activist. Jim talks about his friendships with sometimes controversial figures and his admiration for them not following the status quo. Foreshadowing current events, Jim reflected on his respect for the Country and the National Anthem that played before every game. Jim explains how he believes sports can exploit athletes and ultimately divert an athlete's impact and resources away from the very problems they should be helping with. On a lighter note, Jim transitions to his acting career and discusses his historic love scene with Raquel Welch. Jim wraps up with his love of football and why he decided to retire after nine seasons.
