Aaron Rodgers Listening To Extra Podcasts To Prepare For Possible VP Nom

MONTCLAIR, NJ — Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s campaign announced on Tuesday that Aaron Rodgers was a leading candidate to be his running mate and vice presidential nominee, and in response, the New York Jets quarterback announced that he has recently started listening to “way more” podcasts than usual.

The NFL veteran, who has compiled an impressive 1-4 record in conference championship games, insists he’s taking the possibility seriously.

“I’m committed to this one hundred percent,” Rodgers said. “It’s not something to take lightly, and I’m prepared to do whatever I need to, just like a football game.”

Rodgers said he’s now listening to podcasts for an hour or two a day, “at a minimum.”

“It’s about educating myself,” he continued. “I’m only a heartbeat away.”

Podcasts are not the only source of information Rodgers uses to bone up on the issues.

“You can also learn a lot from YouTube,” he said. “You have to be open-minded about where you get your information. Podcasts are great for learning because they sound like an audiobook, so it’s almost like reading.”

Rodgers emphasized that while listening to extra podcasts was a bit of a personal sacrifice, he was willing to put in the hard work to serve the American people.

“It’s for the good of the nation,” he said. “And easy to do while I’m working out or driving.”
