About this episode
NFL legend Sterling Sharpe joins Club Shay Shay for a powerful and emotional conversation with his brother, Shannon Sharpe — marking a historic moment between the first brothers to both be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Sterling opens up about their humble beginnings in Georgia, including growing up without running water, learning discipline from their grandfather, and how their grandma’s love and strength helped hold the family together. He reflects on the lessons their grandfather taught them — even though he never once said “I love you” — and why his passing was the most freeing day of Sterling’s life. At just $6 an hour, Sterling worked in the fields, often giving his paycheck to his grandma to help keep the lights and heat on. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
