Kevin Clancy — better known as KFC from Barstool — went viral last week with a video about his eight-year-old son Keegan's baseball journey, and the reaction from parents across the country told him everything he needed to know.

In this episode, KFC sits down with Greg Olsen to unpack the full story: putting his kid on a travel team where the competition was elite but the fit was wrong, watching his son lose confidence and nearly walk away from the sport entirely, and the tryout his ex-wife convinced him to attend that changed everything. They get into the real tension every sports parent faces — competition versus confidence, pushing versus backing off, and knowing when your kid needs to be the star versus when they need to be the role player.

Greg shares coaching advice he's carried for years, KFC talks about wanting to step into coaching as a divorced dad looking for every extra minute with his kids, and they both get honest about the part of youth sports nobody warns you about: it's always the parents, never the kids. Watch their conversation here:

Greg also kicks things off with a fun game of "Would you Rather?" and wraps with listener questions.
