Matt Adams & Andrew Zellmer

I wasn’t a farm boy but I like to think that I was.


This week the Moonlight Graham Show goes all the way from A to Z. Matt Adams and Andrew Zellmer that is. These former athletes and sports fans sit down with Tim on a Friday afternoon to talk a little about sports and a lot about Iowa. Matt and Andrew are two of the top dogs for Peoples Company out of Clive. This podcast is an opportunity for buddies to catch up and drain the batteries on the microphones. 


Matt Adams and Andrew Zellmer are locally grown products. Both guys come from farming families and grew up helping uncles and grandparents on their farms with walking beans, working pigs, and so much more. A lot of formative experiences that helped prepare them for careers in farmland real estate and auctions today. 


It wouldn’t be the Moonlight Graham show if they didn’t talk a little sports. They get into some of their high school sports careers, Matt’s time on the UNI football team, and Zellmer’s rugby career. These guys loved playing sports and have a lot of funny stories.

Much of the Moonlight Graham Show has been about telling the stories of former athletes. We have spent 274 episodes looking back on glory days and telling the stories that either made the highlights or shaped the person in the jersey. But this week, we look at a sport that is bringing athletes back to life while it grows on a national stage. Pickleball has been growing in popularity over the last decade. Today, names as big as Lebron James are involved as investors and sponsors. The game has gone from junior high PE classes and retirement communities to deserving real attention.

Kevin Negaard - Raising Money for The Miracle League by Playing Catch

Every listener to this podcast knows that a game of catch is rarely just a game of catch. Playing catch is an opportunity to connect with someone, whether you spend that time in conversation or just listening to the pop of the ball hitting the leather. Few understand this more than this week’s guest, Kevin Negaard. Negaard’s journey is nearing his goal of 365 consecutive days of catch. This endeavor has connected him with hundreds of partners, has spanned two continents, and led to two injections in his shoulder.

This week’s Moonlighter is an underdog, but the hardwood he plays on is more likely to be found on a stage than on a basketball court. Like most of our guests, he is a former athlete, but unlike many of our guests, he walked away from the game instead of the other way around. Griffin House has spent the last 20+ years with a guitar in his hands, recording, touring, and turning out songs that thousands of us love to sing along with.

The college basketball season is about to hit full swing. A lot of the attention in Iowa is on the Hawkeyes and the Cyclones and where they might fall in the top 25. But, lucky for us, we also have two top-tier Missouri Valley Conference teams in the state. Almost every February, there is talk about how many of our big 4 teams can get into the tourney and who can make a run. This week we welcome one of the best Drake Bulldogs to ever put on the uniform, Reed Timmer. Timmer’s career included many records, and he was part of the transition from a few rough years into the upshot that Drake has been on for the last several seasons.
