Lions News: Aidan Hutchinson teases his new podcast with Eminem story

Aidan Hutchinson appears to be launching a podcast, and the first clips tell a great story about his encounter with Eminem.

Professional athletes are starting to take control of their own public image through the power of podcasts, and it looks like Detroit Lions star defensive end Aidan Hutchinson is adding his name to the list soon.

On Instagram this week, Hutchinson shared a two-part video from the account “House Of Hutch ” where he tells a story about his encounter with Detroit-based rapper Eminem at the 2024 NFL Draft .

Here’s a look at Aidan discussing the story with his father, Chris Hutchinson:

At this point in time, it doesn’t appear that the podcast has officially launched. It’s not available on any podcast platform yet. There’s no direct mention of it on the House of Hutch website, but the Instagram page mentions a “HOUSE of HUTCH podcast.”

Additionally, Aidan’s older sister Mia said on her instagram to “get ready for lots of funny stories, football insiders, & life chats with the fam and guests.”

If you can’t get enough of Lions players talking ball and life, this should be something to keep an eye out for in the upcoming weeks. We’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, there’s always the St. Brown Brothers podcast.
