The most adrenaline-charged, fist-pumping moments in sports happen in the blink of an eye for fans.

But those moments are years in the making for athletes. And the impact of them can last a lifetime.

In the Moment is a new podcast from the people who brought you Man in the Arena. Every Tuesday, host David Greene takes you inside the mind of an athlete at a pivotal moment in their career. David combines his experience as the former host of NPR’s Morning Edition with the passion of a diehard sports fan to relive some of the biggest moments in sports.

1. Bucs WR Chris Godwin: Tampa Bay’s Chris Godwin is one of the NFL’s best wide receivers. But the career-defining moment that sticks with him…

2. Raiders TE Darren Waller: It was just a few years ago that Darren Waller wondered if he would ever get back to the game of football.

3. NFL Great Larry Fitzgerald: They were behind Pittsburgh most of the game until the last few minutes of the fourth quarter..
