During this episode of the Grim Drive Podcast, where we explore mental health through the lens of professional sports and athletes, we discuss Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and relationships.

Dynasties don’t happen very often, and aside from a few select haters out there, everyone can acknowledge that the 20 years and six championships won by the head coach and quarterback combo of Bill Belichick and Tom Brady qualifies as a dynasty.  But 20 years together in any relationship is difficult and has ups and downs, particularly when the pair has to spend a lot of time together AND is attempting to achieve greatness.  Belichick and Brady are no different, and in this episode we discuss the many challenges that relationships pose, both personal and professional, as well as some of our guesses as to what may have helped this duo ride off into the sunset together instead of parting ways (yes, we break our speculation rule here, please no jokes about rule breaking).

*The Grim Drive Podcast is a way for people to learn about mental fitness, mental health, and mental illness, through the lens of sports. We want to do our part to further reduce the stigma associated with mental health by highlighting the athletes who have shown strength through vulnerability, spoken up, and spoken out.  We want to provide listeners with mental health education, to raise awareness and reduce risk, maximizing the path to mental fitness.

As a reminder to listeners/viewers, please leave us a review on apple podcasts, or comment on one of our youtube videos with any thoughts.  We guarantee we will respond to all comments and would love the chance to have a dialogue about some of these topics with anyone who is interested to discuss.
