Listen "Cancer Awareness, Comedy Legends, and NFL Glory"
Episode Synopsis
This special episode of The Neil Haley Show features three compelling interviews showcasing philanthropy, entertainment excellence, and athletic achievement. Host Neil Haley, alongside co-host Caregiver Dave, welcomes guests from diverse backgrounds who share their passions, experiences, and life lessons. The first segment features Ryan Serhant from Bravo's Million Dollar Listing New York, who discusses his role as the 2021 National Ambassador for the American Cancer Society's Real Men Wear Pink program. Serhant shares his motivation for joining the campaign after learning that 41% of Americans delayed medical care during the pandemic and discovering that one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. He emphasizes that breast cancer affects men too, though at much lower rates, and encourages listeners to visit serhantswearspink.com to join his team and help him reach his $75,000 fundraising goal. Comedy legend Rich Little takes center stage in the second interview, conducted alongside Greg Hanna from Celebrity Interviews Live from the Grotto. The master impressionist discusses his re-released book "People I Have Known and Been," available on Amazon, which chronicles funny encounters with celebrities throughout his decades-long career. Little performs spot-on impressions of presidents including Ronald Reagan, Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, and Jimmy Stewart, while sharing touching memories of his relationships with Hollywood icons and political leaders. He reflects on the challenges of modern comedy in an era of cancel culture and reveals that his audience at the Tropicana in Las Vegas, where he performs Sunday through Wednesday, is now predominantly conservative. The final segment features former Cleveland Browns running back Eric Metcalf, a three-time Pro Bowler who followed in his father Terry Metcalf's footsteps to NFL stardom. Despite being considered undersized for the position, Metcalf dominated at every level from youth football through his professional career, earning first-round draft status. He shares candid memories of his time with the Browns, including the heartbreak of losing the 1989 AFC Championship game to Denver despite believing the team was Super Bowl-bound. Metcalf discusses the unique challenges of being a smaller running back in an era that favored larger players and expresses how he would thrive in today's spread offense systems that value versatile backs like Christian McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara. Throughout the episode, Caregiver Dave adds personal perspective by sharing his own caregiving journey after his wife suffered a stroke, highlighting the shocking statistic that 30% of caregivers die before their loved ones. The conversations emphasize themes of perseverance, using platforms for good, and the importance of health awareness, creating an engaging and meaningful listening experience across sports, entertainment, and philanthropy.
