Mellinger Minutes For Your Ears: This KC native went rogue on NFL, created BLM video

This week we talk with Kansas City native Bryndon Minter, a 27-year-old creative producer with the NFL who was behind the push for last week’s video showing players — including Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Tyrann Mathieu — calling for change and supporting the Black Lives Matter movement. It became a viral social media hit. Listen here.

We also talk about the NFL’s team owners needing to treat fans better and answer questions about whether Mahomes should take less money in his looming mega-contract with the Chiefs, and whether the Royals have a competitive advantage in the way they’re treating their minor-leaguers.

We are constantly trying to think of new ways to deliver you information, entertainment or something else you won’t get anywhere else. Part of that is evaluating how you and I can connect. My hope is this can be one more way — a podcast you can listen to whenever and wherever you like.

Join us every Friday for behind-the-scenes access to interviews with Kansas City’s coaches, fans and reporters. We’ve talked with Bill Self, Mike Matheny and Mayor Quinton Lucas — and more. You can get all the episodes in one place right here.
