Episode 372 of the "Sports Illustrated Media Podcast" hosted by Jimmy Traina is a roundtable with Al Michaels and Tom Rinaldi to discuss the career of John Madden.

Michaels, who was Madden's partner for seven seasons, and Rinaldi, who was a director on the recent FOX Sports documentary on Madden's life, talk about Madden's unusual popularity, what he was like to work with, his fear of flying and his use of the Madden Cruiser bus, his partnership with Pat Summerall, joining FOX instead of 'Monday Night Football' after CBS los the NFC package and much more.
