Customer Reviews
Interesting guests, great conversations
Discovered Richard’s podcasts initially from his days at Sports Illustrated. As someone that works in the sports media I’ve always found them interesting, entertaining and educational.
His new venture on his own has seen the standard remain just as high - we hear from people that have been there and done it on all sides of the media, and Richard asks the questions you hope he will ask.
