Khary Payton & Ned Donovan are Waiting For Travis To Come Back From Best Buy - Athletics Check Ep 9

Athletics Check with Johnny Stanton IV

Johnny Stanton IV hangs with with TTRPG stars and the incredible actor Khary Payton, known from The Walking Dead and DC's Cyborg, and producer Ned Donovan from Encounter Party. Khary and Ned share their love for sports and nerd culture and how those things have interwoven throughout their lives. From chasing the highs of performing in front of others in basketball (Khary) and lacrosse (Ned) to finding the same feelings of shared goals and team camaraderie in D&D later in life, this episode shows that playing games as a kid can lead to a career if you have enough imagination. Make sure you stick around to see how Khary & Ned's nerd-to-jock ratios changes over the episode!
