This week on That Sober Guy Podcast , the #1 sober podcast for men since 2014 - Shane sits down with Kansas City Chiefs defensive coach and Super Bowl Champion Britt Reid, son of legendary head coach Andy Reid.
Britt opens up about his journey through some of life’s darkest valleys: the devastating car accident just days before the Super Bowl that nearly claimed the life of a 5-year-old girl, his time in prison, and how he stumbled across That Sober Guy Podcast while behind bars. What started as a lifeline in a cell has grown into part of his path toward sobriety, redemption, and rebuilding his life.
The conversation also digs deep into Britt’s family history, including the heartbreaking loss of his older brother to a drug overdose, a story that is now also featured in ESPN’s brand-new docuseries “The Kingdom”, directed by Kristen Lappas (of The Last Dance fame). The six-episode series chronicles the Chiefs’ run to Super Bowl LIX and their global impact on football, but it also shines a light on the real-life struggles behind the highlight reels, including Britt’s.
As always, Shane keeps it authentic, raw, and even light-hearted at times. From gridiron glory to gritty sobriety work, this episode is about far more than football, it’s about second chances, personal ownership, and finding freedom.
👉 Actionable Takeaways from this episode:
-
No matter how far you’ve fallen, redemption is possible if you’re willing to put in the work.

Sobriety is a team sport, you can’t do it alone, but you can win with the right community.

Pain doesn’t have to define you; it can be the very thing that fuels your purpose.
