Sports are the backdrop. Life is the conversation. He Said, Son Said is a father-and-son podcast where sports become the starting point for conversations that matter most. Every week, Matt and Nash explore the biggest stories in sports, reflect on life through the lens of fatherhood, and sit down with athletes, coaches, parents, and families whose journeys reveal far more than what happens on the field, court, or course. Together, they uncover the moments that shape us—the victories and setbacks, the relationships, the sacrifices, and the lessons that stay with us long after the final whistle. Because the greatest stories in sports aren't really about sports. They're about resilience. Leadership. Family. Purpose. And the people who help us become who we're meant to be.
