Fantastic Storyteller (Sports Life)
I’m really enjoying this podcast! Joel is a gifted storyteller, and I love his cadre of guests. I don’t have a sports background, so I really appreciate the insider view. Even more impressive is the way Joel connects sports themes and topics to business and life. Really great stuff here! Off to listen to another episode.
