On this week's episode of Finding Certainty on VoiceAmerica Business, host Patrick Laing sits down with special guest, Matt Butkus, the second son of 51 ... NFL Hall of Famer, The Monster of Midway, Dick Butkus. Matt has carved out his own path while honoring his father's enduring legacy in football, business, and philanthropy. As the driving force behind The Butkus Foundation, The Butkus Award, and Team Butkus, Matt is deeply involved in the charitable endeavors that define their family's commitment to giving back. In this episode, Patrick and Matt discuss the incredible work of The Butkus Foundation, including the renowned Butkus Award, which annually recognizes the top high school, college, and NFL linebackers. They delve into the impact of the I Play Clean initiative, a campaign launched to promote a drug-free approach among young athletes, and the Butkus Takes Heart™ initiative, which advocates for early cardiovascular assessments to combat heart disease, a cause close to the Butkus family's heart. Matt also shares insights into their business, Team Butkus, and his podcast, Butkus Beyond the Line, where he explores the intersections of sports, business, and community. With stories from the field and beyond, this conversation offers a deep dive into the values that have shaped the Butkus legacy. To learn more about The Butkus Award, go to thebutkusaward.com.
