THE GAME PLAN is a new podcast highlighting athletes’ business ventures beyond the field of play. We will speak with professional athletes past and present to discover the ways they leverage their public platform to unlock the value of their cultural influence outside the world of sports.
In addition to chatting with retired players about the transition into their post-playing careers, we’ll speak with current athletes, from rookies to veterans, about how they prepare for the days after they hang up their cleats, and how they plan to define the next chapter.
Our goal is for fans, other athletes, and future business partners alike to see our guests in a new light and to understand what makes them “more than an athlete”.
