This morning, the Pac-12 officially announced a historic partnership with CBS Sports — marking a bold new chapter for a conference on the rise. And today on Y-Option, presented by our founding partner 76, we welcomed back Commissioner Teresa Gould for her first full-length conversation since the deal was made public.Make no mistake — this is a monumental move. Starting July 1, 2026, when the new league officially launches, CBS becomes the anchor partner of the new-look Pac-12. That means college football and basketball — including the conference title games — will air across CBS, Paramount+ and CBS Sports Network, joining the same lineup that once featured the SEC and now hosts Big Ten games. And soon, the Pac-12.“This wasn't just about a TV deal,” Commissioner Gould told me. “It was about exposure, economics, and transformation — and CBS checks all three boxes.”Inside the CBS Deal:From our exclusive conversation, here's what stood out:✅ Broadcast + Cable CoverageCBS will carry premier Pac-12 football and men's basketball matchups, alongside CBS Sports Network for expanded programming. The conference championship games will be aired nationally.✅ Strategic AlignmentThe Pac-12's media rights journey didn't just attract interest — it created competition. CBS was among the first to reach out after the conference announced its reformation, and ultimately, their values and vision aligned.✅ The Power of ProductionThe decision to retain Pac-12 Enterprises was key. “Our ability to produce content efficiently and at a high level was a major asset,” said Gould. Expect the Pac-12's in-house production capabilities, led by Senior Vice President of Business Development and Studio Operations Michael Molinari, to power even more content — from live games to NIL opportunities for athletes.“We're Building an Unconference Conference.”Commissioner Gould called it a “blank slate” — a chance to build something new without the constraints of legacy deals or outdated models.And she's doing just that.From the media rights rollout to adding new member schools, the strategy has been deliberate. This phased approach is redefining how a conference is built. With CBS now officially locked in, the next move? Finalizing an 8th football member by 2026 to fulfill FBS requirements and to bring the new league to nine schools overall.“There's no playbook for this,” Commissioner Gould told me. “We're not just rebuilding. We're reimagining.”More from Our Conversation:

Instead, we had one of the most honest conversations I've ever had with a woman who's quietly—and bravely—acknowledging that her current chapter is over.

Rob Howden is the Director of Business Development and Series Announcer for USF Pro Championship Racing. Known as “The Voice of the Series,” he has been a fixture in motorsports media for over 30 years. He's also the founder of Howden Media Group and eKarting News, where he continues to cover karting events across North America. Rob's passion for racing started in go-karts and has evolved into mentoring and following drivers from childhood through to professional careers in IndyCar and beyond. In this episode… Motorsports is not just about speed — it's about precision, development, and community, from grassroots karting to elite IndyCar races. Many young drivers begin their journey as early as age five and ascend through a structured ladder system that prepares them for pro racing. What makes a winning driver in such a competitive and mentally demanding environment? According to Rob Howden, who directs business development and announces races for USF Pro Championships, success comes from more than just talent and equipment. Confidence and momentum are intangible but crucial elements that often separate the good from the great. Through decades of experience, Rob has witnessed countless young racers transform their skills and mindsets en route to top-tier success. On this episode of Gain Traction, Mike Edge welcomes Rob for a conversation about the business and culture of USF Pro Racing, how tire dealers and shop owners can get involved, and what it takes for young racers to reach the IndyCar level. Rob also shares personal insights into his career, favorite race tracks, and where to find the best pizza on the road.

Guest: Tom Wardach Guest Bio: After serving for a few years as an officer in the US Army, I ventured into the business world, and that wasn't even my original plan! After almost 35 years in my current industry, I never thought that I would be in it for that long. And yet after more than 3 decades, here I still am. I have had the capacity to work for some great companies and wonderful teams in sales, personnel, customer service, product, and information management. Key Points: Background and Career Path · Tom attended a military college in South Carolina and served in the Army. Leadership and discipline learned there laid the groundwork for his career. · Transitioned to sales through a connection his wife had with Georgia-Pacific, where he began as an inside salesperson. · Emphasizes the importance of connections, not burning bridges, and seizing opportunities. Military Lessons Applied to Sales · Experience in leading teams in the military helped him lead sales teams. · Military discipline translates well to self-motivation and accountability in sales roles, especially in remote work settings. Egger Wood Products Role · Initially hired for a key account manager role, was later promoted to lead the U.S. sales team as part of a succession plan. · Tasked with building the U.S. sales team essentially from scratch. Building a Sales Team · Before hiring, he and the company identified what traits they were looking for in candidates. · Uses a collaborative approach to hiring, incorporating feedback from other team members and HR. · Emphasizes collaboration, input from colleagues, and a structured onboarding process. Hiring Philosophy · Candidates must have a proven sales background. · Prefers candidates with a short learning curve on the product side due to immediate business needs. · Ideal hires have both sales and some industry familiarity (e.g., OEM experience). · Doesn't hesitate to make quick decisions when it's clear a hire isn't a good fit, unlike companies that wait too long. · Acknowledges the emotional difficulty of letting people go, even when necessary. Sales Team Expectations · Key account managers are expected to both acquire new business and grow existing accounts. · Sales at Egger involve long sales cycles and complex conversions (e.g., product switching or manufacturing changes). · A key priority is expanding Egger's brand presence in the U.S. since its local manufacturing started in 2020.

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of how this book actually came to life — spoiler: it wasn't perfect, polished, or carefully planned. I didn't wait until I had everything figured out. I didn't go off on a writing retreat or hire a fancy team. I just started — messy, scared, and in the margins of everyday life. I carved out time between real estate deals, nap times, and client calls. I used Google, podcasts, and trial and error to figure out what came next. Some days I wrote two pages. Some days I wrote one sentence. But I kept going — even when it was uncomfortable, even when I doubted myself. In this episode, I'm also inviting you behind the curtain: if you want early access to the book, bonus excerpts, and cut content from the editing process — sign up for the early access list in the show notes. ✨ You don't have to wait until you're ready to start.

Send us a textMelissa Steger returns to walk us through the building blocks of the unique Texas UT System workers' compensation program. While the program is self-insured, they use a third-party administrator (TPA) in a hybrid system where the TPA staff sit on-site with the UT System staff who oversee the program. Covering 160,000 employees and over 250,000 students, UT System uses a variable rating system and has set up a culture where the individual institutions within the system compete against one another to achieve superior outcomes. The results? Truly innovative and remarkable. During Melissa's tenure with the WC program, and through a system of healthy competition, they initially saw program costs of eighty cents per $100 dollars of payroll. When Melissa retired last year, it had fallen to 8.5 cents per $100 dollars of payroll. How did this happen? Melissa talks about some of the nuances of their program including an annual retreat, where the hybrid staff come together to improve communications, get focused on core program goals and learn how they could continuously improve their results. Join us as we talk to Melissa and learn how UT System achieved such amazing results.Melissa also talks about flunking out of retirement. She is now VP of Business Development at WorkCompCollege.com ¡Muchas Gracias! Thank you for listening. We would appreciate you sharing our podcast with your friends on social media.

My guest today is Milena Trevisani.Before becoming a coach, Milena worked for 20 years in the corporate world, and which took her to many different countries. Along the way, she met lots of extraordinary people who opened her eyes to the possibilities that we all hold within us. During her 10 years at The New York Times as a Director of Business Development and Sales, Milena had a coach who helped her and laid the foundations for her coaching passion. While at the NYT, Milena began to understand that to become a leader you have to train, and secondly, her coach helped her to see that a task is more than just a task. It's who we become while we are doing it that matters. She became fascinated with human behaviour and relationships and Milena shares that she thinks that's what led her to the life she has now.In our conversation today, Milena shares pieces of her story that shaped her life – losing her dad unexpected at 13 years old, being unable to afford university and creating a successful life despite that, and always holding a desire to study and get her degree. And now, she has started that journey, realizing it's not too late.We talk about how stories are contagious – for both positive and negative – so how can we recognize the stories our brains are absorbing? We discuss the importance of finding the good tension between our dreams and the practical necessities of life. And the power of choosing what we “feed” our brains.This conversation is deeply inspiring and I'm so honored to share it with you.Milena, thank you for your stories, your wisdom, your thought-provoking and eye-opening metaphors. I'm a better person for having met you and learned from you and I know that those who listen to this will feel similarly!To learn more about Milena and her work, please see the links below.Milena's Website: https://milenatrevisanicoaching.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/milena-trevisani-467b191/Make Life Less Difficult~ Support:buymeacoffee.com/lisatilstra

Mohamed “Mo” Massaquoi is a former NFL wide receiver best known for his time with the Cleveland Browns and a standout collegiate career at the University of Georgia. After a life-changing ATV accident in 2017 that resulted in the loss of his left hand, Mo’s story became one of resilience, transformation, and purpose. With a master’s in Industrial Organizational Psychology from UGA and executive development at Harvard Business School, Mo now leads as a consultant and coach, helping individuals and organizations navigate transition, and unlock their highest potential. His journey is a testament to the power of perspective, community, and relentless personal growth. Key Takeaways: Resilience Through Adversity: Mo’s journey illustrates how adversity, like his 2017 accident, can lead to profound self-discovery and transformation when faced with courage and a strong support system. Purpose Built on Service: Mo’s “because” is rooted in helping others through transition—recognizing that everyone faces challenges and that real strength is found in community, self-exploration, and service to others. Leadership Isn’t Lonely—It’s Collaborative: Mo emphasizes that leadership becomes isolating only when you refuse to let others in. The right team and open communication are essential to thriving as a leader or in any major life change. Sound Bites: “There is no individual hero… There’s a ton of people that are putting inputs in to kind of help you.” “Go within yourself—things that people are interested in may be the key to unlocking their gift.” “Leadership isn’t lonely, it’s isolated, because there’s a ton of people going through the same thing… you’re just not allowing other people to help.” Quote by Mick: “The game of sport is a business. And so now you go from being a player to having to think like a business person because you become a business yourself at that point in time as well.” Connect & Discover Mo: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ironmassaquoi/?hl=en Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mohamedmassaquoi/ Website: https://www.thevessol.com/ Website: Players for Good FOLLOW MICK ON:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mickunplugged/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mickunplugged/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mickunplugged LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mickhunt/Website: https://www.mickhuntofficial.com Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mick-unplugged/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
