These days, many people have created fun and informative podcasts, including soap opera stars who enjoy talking about their interests. The days of our lives stars are no exception. Greg Vaughan and former The Young and the Restless Star James Hyde collaborated on a new podcast and shared it with fans.

Old friends, new games

Vaughan, who plays Eric in DAYS, spoke to Digital Journal about his new adventure with his old friend, James Hyde — Y&R villain Jeremy Stark. “Sport is very important to James Hyde and myself, and we get along very well with them, as do our children. Culturally, sport is important because it allows young men to become better men,” Vaughan explained.

He credited Hyde with coming up with his podcast concept, called College football trash talk with James and Greg. And he noted that the two men have enjoyed a great friendship for three decades. “I thought it would be great, and we decided to do it for fun on our social media platforms,” he said, adding: “We’re trying to keep that high energy that we have and the hype .” He cited college football as their favorite topic to talk about. It is fortunate that they can reach men and women of all ages.
