Chuck Todd
For 20 years, Chuck Todd has been a ubiquitous face of politics in the United States, most visibly as the host of Meet the Press through the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations. Now, as traditional media struggles to keep up with the digital age, he's left it behind.
On South Beach Sessions, Chuck unwraps the influence of his father on his career - that's where his love of politics (and sports) came from - and explains why, growing up, he never thought he'd be a journalist. He and Dan also discuss the frailty of our current media ecosystem, reminisce a bit about the (better) old days, and what's next. Listen, watch, and subscribe to "The Chuck Toddcast".

Max Greenfield
It's hard not to love Max Greenfield. Max talks to Dan Le Batard about going from being a struggling student in school to more than a decade of "slumming around the gutters of Hollywood" trying to make it as an actor... and nearly calling it quits after becoming a father before his big break on the beloved show, "New Girl". The star of "The Neighborhood" also shares how fatherhood changed his approach to life and acting, the importance of appreciating the little things, why he was so terrified to work with Ted Danson and Mike Schur, and how the pandemic led him to becoming a children's author.
