Brett Favre: The Greatest Gunslinger of All-Time | Sage Steele Show | EP 71

I sat down with Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and we covered just about everything.

Brett opened up about the lessons his father taught him, what it was like to grow up in a modest family, and how that foundation shaped the way he approached football and life. He shared powerful memories about the night after his father passed away, when he played one of the most unforgettable games of his career, and how that moment still defines him today.

We talked about the toll football took on his body, his battle with Parkinson’s disease, and why he refuses to let it define him. Brett also addressed the controversies that have followed him, the Netflix documentary, and the ongoing civil case in Mississippi.

But beyond the headlines, he spoke about family, faith, and what he hopes his legacy will be, not just as a quarterback, but as a husband, father, and friend.

This was Brett Favre at his most honest, funny, candid, and unfiltered.
