Chris_Erwin ,

Fun to hear about the gaps in sports media!

Love how Dylan gets right into his story, and then weaves great startup tales in ~15 min chunks. Also really like the first episode, when he raised three main questions he needs answer as he starts his new biz. As an avid writer about the sports media ecosystem, excited to dive in more!
