"Mouthpeace with Michael and Pele Bennett," the fourth weekly podcast series from Lemonada Media, launched its official trailer Friday. Hosted and executive produced by Michael Bennett, a NFL defensive lineman for the Dallas Cowboys & author and his wife Pele, food advocate and co-leader of The Bennett Foundation, the series explores topics ranging from love, sex, parenting, the NFL and politics. The first episode will be available on January 31, with a new episode every Friday through the spring.

"A podcast seemed like such a natural next step for us. We've been around the country with the NFL, written books, started a foundation, and had this intense life together, and we have a set of perspectives and experiences that we want to share and explore with Mouthpeace listeners," said Michael.

"That, and we have questions. I'm excited for people to hear from our guests about topics like retirement, protest, drug policy, sex and marriage, everything we want to talk about," added Pele.

"Michael and Pele joined us for a taping of our podcast 'Good Kids: How Not to Raise an A**Hole' early on, and they were so thoughtful, funny, and had such incredible chemistry behind the mic that we knew they needed a show with Lemonada," said Lemonada co-founder and Chief Creative Officer Stephanie Wittels Wachs.

"With Mouthpeace, Lemonada and the Bennetts are creating a new space: where activism, sports culture, and relationships meet - that's this show. It's going to resonate far and wide because Pele and Michael are just so open and honest. So rarely do we get to know the intimate details of public figures who have had such an impact on American mainstream households," added Lemonada CEO and co-founder Jessica Cordova Kramer.

Michael Bennett is a Dallas Cowboys football player and Super Bowl Champion as well as a self-described feminist, activist, author and devoted husband and father. He's a best-selling author of "Things That Make White People Uncomfortable" and uses his platform to raise awareness about important social issues, weaving in his passion for social justice and education. Michael and his wife, Pele, run The Bennett Foundation with their children.

Pele Bennett is a passionate food advocate and a skilled Polynesian dancer who toured the world with her family growing up. She oversees The Bennett Foundation with Michael and their three daughters, who are homeschooled, a topic the couple loves to explore.
