On this episode of The Fred Minnick Show Presented by BAXUS, Fred is joined by former NFL star Jared Allen.

Allen spent 12 seasons as a defensive end for the Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings and Carolina Panthers, racking up 136 sacks and earning four All-Pro honors. He played in the 50th Super Bowl with the Panthers and racked up more than 600 total tackles in his career.

During this episode, Jared and Fred discuss topics such as recent changes in the NFL, fake food, jiu jitsu (and getting choked unconscious), marzipan, tasting notes and plenty more. During the conversation, they sip Michter’s American Whiskey, Woodinville Sauternes Finish, Hard Truth Sweet Mash Wheated Bottled in Bond, a BAXUS barrel pick and the first-ever bottling of Stagg Jr.
