Based in Los Angeles, Miranda and Ellis produce the most listened to football podcasts in the world. The two found time between traveling to football games and their three weekly shows to take a tour of Carney on Sunday morning and attend the Jacksonville Jaguars - Tennessee Titans with the Sailors of USS Simpson (FFG 23).
Arriving early in the morning with Cmdr. Ed Kaiser, USS Simpson commanding officer, the two sports fans were given a tour of Carney by Lt.j.g. James Hostetler. This was their first visit to a U.S. Navy warship and they said they were impressed with the professionalism of the crew and the awesome capabilities of the ship.
"They seemed pretty interested in all we did on board. It was great to be able to give a tour to these guys. They really seemed to enjoy it" said Hostetler.
They visited with several Carney Warriors along the way and on the Messdecks. The finer points of the NFC East were discussed, as well as the Jaguars chances to beat Tennessee. The tour included a stop at Carney's Ship's Store, which is all decked out in Jaguar teal, and the barbershop, with has a college football theme. Both were appreciated by the football experts, who thanked the crew profusely for their service and sacrifices.
