    E389: MUNICIPAL Co-Founder Harry Arnett

    Welcome back to another episode of The Chasing Daylight Podcast! Today, Matt sits down for an exciting interview with Harry Arnett, the founder of the rapidly growing lifestyle and apparel brand, Municipal. After a legendary career navigating the golf equipment space, Harry took a leap of faith to build a brand meant for the modern, active lifestyle.  Harry details his fascinating journey, from starting out in sports radio while making $8 an hour to leading marketing powerhouses at TaylorMade and Callaway. We dive deep into the philosophy of Municipal's "sport utility aesthetic," what it’s like co-founding a company with Mark Wahlberg, and why golfers need gear that performs just as well on a hike or in the gym as it does on the course.  In this episode, we cover: - Harry’s early career transition from sports radio to becoming a leading marketing mind at TaylorMade and Callaway.  - The exact moment Harry decided to leave his comfortable position in golf to bet on himself and launch Municipal in 2019.  - How Municipal was built to support a modern, multi-hyphenate life rather than just fitting the traditional "golf aesthetic".  - The success of Municipal athletes on tour, including Wyndham Clark's back-to-back U.S. Open victories while wearing the gear.  - Harry's thoughts on the current landscape of golf content creators and the importance of unique storytelling.  - Behind-the-scenes insights into working alongside co-founders Mark Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson.
