GREEN BAY - What happens when you sit a couple of redheads down together in a Lambeau Field suite to talk football?
The inevitable Minnesota Vikings joke, of course, but if it’s 68-year-old Green Bay Packers president and CEO Mark Murphy in one chair and 9-year-old sports whiz Beckett K. in a suit and tie in the other, they also cover the kind of ground that might make seasoned interviewers take a few notes.
For the newest installment of its “Shortz on Sportz” podcast that dropped Monday, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Bay & Lakes Region snagged the Packers’ “head honcho” to sit down with member and host Beckett, who also goes by "Bex," for a 32-minute chat that ranged from Murphy’s NFL playing days with Washington to the Packers’ free agency moves to golf, grandkids and their shared hair color.
