This is The Admired Show. Hey, everyone. Welcome to my weekend special. I hope you enjoy the show. Be sure to follow The Ed Milet Show on Apple and Spotify. Links are in the show notes. You'll never miss an episode that way. Here's our first guest. Welcome back to the show, everybody. Today's special. It's not every day you sit across from a three-time Super Bowl champion, Super Bowl MVP. Let's just be real. One of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. One of the greatest athletes of all time. And by the way, ironically, I think actually one of the most underrated athletes athletes of all time it's a fact but actually as impressive as his football career was I like the fact that the dream didn't stop there and he was able to post football create an incredible brand an incredible career an incredible life post football so I just want to pick the brain of the great Troy Aikman Troy good to have you
Yeah, great to be on. Great to meet you. Been looking forward to this. You too. By the way, he's also an entrepreneur. We ought to just talk about that first.
He's in the beer business now.
Tell me about that a little bit. It's been an interesting year and a half or so. Actually, we started two years before we launched. We've now been in stores for a year and a half, strictly in Texas. But I worked for a distributorship in college. I like beer. I don't drink a lot. You don't look like you drink any. Yeah, no. But, yeah, I met my partners, and we started kicking it around and seeing if it's something that I might want to do. And, you know, I work out. I'm mindful of what I put in my body, all those things. And I said, well, if we can do something that complements my lifestyle, then I'm all for it. And so we spent two years coming up with the recipe. And what's unique about eight – which is the name of the beer, is that we're 100% organic grains.
We have no adjuncts and no fillers. So we're the only widely available beer that can say that. Every other widely available beer adds corn, rice, syrup, or sugar. So there's a lot of junk that's thrown in there. Ours has none of that, and yet we're still at 90 calories and just 2.6 carbs. That was my next question on those two things. It's been really good. I feel like we're a lifestyle brand, quite honestly, because the people who I've always been inspired by are the people who never settle and the people who do the work and all those things. And I feel like I'm one of those people, you know, and that's why I'm usually drawn to that. And so that's really who this beer was made for. Now, anyone who wants to drink it that wants a better for you beer will certainly accept.
By the way, you're in the right demo in this audience.
Yeah.
They can drink beer and be healthy.
Yeah.
And it's actually unique. They can get it anywhere? Where can you get it?
In Texas. Yeah, it's distributed across the entire state. Eventually, we hope that we'll move outside of Texas and be in other states.
Let's get it online so we can buy it online.
Yeah. I don't know what the restrictions are on that. I've been asked about that a lot. But it's done really well. So we just kicked off our second year, and a lot of good stuff is happening. Congratulations.
Yeah, thank you. Like I said, you've had this incredible life. I'm going to ask you hard stuff today, stuff that I don't think you get asked all the time. I had a chance a few weeks ago. I was with Brady for a few days at an event. And I've been blessed that I get to have been around some guys that played your position at a pretty high level. Woody John Elway's been a friend of mine for a long time. What's a through line for the great leaders in anything, but especially we'll just take quarterbacks now. What's a through line? And don't be humble today. between like a Troy Aikman, because you're different personalities, very different. Troy Aikman, a John Elway, a Tom Brady. What is the through line that made you all great leaders?
I know there's differences, but what's a through line?
Yeah, I think we are all different. We all lead in a different way, which is true of any field, of course.
