Description: Today, we are excited to introduce another new show made possible by the new NIL rules: the Grace Berger Show, presented by Farrall Wealth.

This episode begins with an intro from Jerod, who explains how the show came about, what you can expect, and why Coach Jeff Marlow from our community was the obvious choice to host this show.

Then, around the 6:00 mark, Coach Marlow’s first discussion with Grace begins.
