The Big Podcast with Shaq
Shaq & ‘Zo Open Up On Their NBA Beef, Becoming Besties & Talk Kidney Health Challenges
Season 2, Ep. 39
•
On today's episode of The Big Podcast, NBA legends reunite as we welcome basketball legend and kidney health advocate, Alonzo Mourning, to the show. Between Shaq and ‘Zo’s battles on the court, their contrasting lifestyles (wait until you hear about ‘Zo’s diet vs. Shaq’s!), and other stories from back in the day, these two legends have plenty to laugh about. But it’s not all jokes—Alonzo shares his powerful journey with APOL1-mediated kidney disease (AMKD) and his mission with Power Forward (www.PowerForwardTogether.com) to educate others about this rapidly progressive kidney disease. Tune in for an inspiring conversation and some classic Shaq-and-’Zo banter you don’t want to miss!This episode is sponsored by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated. Alonzo Mourning is a paid spokesperson for Vertex Pharmaceuticals.
