In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Andrew Petcash—former college basketball player, venture capitalist, and one of LinkedIn's most insightful voices on the business of sports. Andrew shares his journey from building a massive NBA YouTube channel as a teenager to founding Profluence Capital, a sports-focused venture fund that connects founders, investors, and cutting-edge sports businesses. The conversation dives deep into Andrew's strategy for breaking down sports industry segments, sourcing valuable market data, and building authentic, action-oriented thought leadership (or, as Pete calls it, “action leadership!") He unpacks how his personal brand has become a powerful engine for attracting investment targets and shares why transparency in the investment process can spark even more opportunities in the ever-evolving sports landscape. Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or just interested in youth and collegiate sports—including the ripple effects of NIL—this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how major trends are being identified, funded, and built from the ground up. Petcash also offers candid advice for aspiring investors about the best ways to get involved in early-stage sports deals. On their investment aproach, Petcash states, "Most of our companies have said we're their most helpful investor because we can also get them a lot of attention from our channels from a marketing lens. We also just have a huge network to get them more investment or to get them more customers or whatever." Key themes discussed Building credibility through content and thought leadership. Action-oriented investing in sports and health sectors. Market research and sizing sports investment opportunities. Navigating early-stage venture capital and due diligence. Challenges and opportunities of NIL in college sports. The value of networks and relationships in sports investing. A few key takeaways: 1. Content Creation as a Market Differentiator: Andrew leveraged his expertise in content creation to position himself as not just a thought leader, but an “action leader” in the sports and VC world. By sharing insights and market analysis on platforms like LinkedIn, he built trust, credibility, and created a network effect that brings founders and opportunities directly to him. 2. Unique Approach to Market Sizing and Research: Andrew highlights his process of identifying investment opportunities in sports—especially youth sports and the impact of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) changes. He combines feedback from industry contacts, exclusive data access, and his own proprietary database, blending qualitative and quantitative insights not widely available elsewhere. 3. Innovative Venture Capital Model: Profluence goes beyond the typical VC approach. They split their portfolio between more predictable, linear investments (e.g., sports teams/events—what he calls “layer one” assets) and higher-upside venture bets. This aims to balance risk and ensure strong fund returns, even if only a few high-risk investments succeed. 4. The Value of Strategic Partnerships and Advisory Networks: Petcash also emphasized the importance of surrounding himself with subject matter experts and private equity partners as both LPs (limited partners) and advisors. This adds significant strategic value when evaluating deals and managing portfolio companies, helping Profluence "punch above its weight" in deal selection and support. 5. Advice to Investors-Use Funds Over Angel Investments: Both Pete and Andrew caution against direct angel investments into early-stage companies, unless you have professional oversight and industry-specific expertise. Instead, they recommend investing through established funds with strong governance and a relevant network—offering better diversification, professional vetting, and an increased chance of success.

God has, in some degree, made us in His image and according to His likeness. There is no definite statement made in Scripture as to what this means, but we can infer some of the things it must mean from what the Bible tells us about mankind. First, being in God's image must include sharing the holiness of His character. Second must be the fact that man was not intended to die. Third, we are persons capable of having a person-to-person relationship with God. This is not to say that we are in any way divine. We are not. We are creatures made from the ground like the other animals (Ge 2:7,19), yet God gave us the capacity to converse with Him, love Him, worship Him, obey Him, etc. to such a degree that a human could be deemed a "friend of God." The fourth way in which humans share God's image and likeness is that we were intended to share in the process of extending God's authority over the other forms of life on this planet. Listen to find out why God would make us like Him and what that tells us about how we are to treat others.

NIL sent shockwaves through college athletics when it was signed into law in 2021. Now student-athletes could earn money off of their name, image, and likeness. But there weren't any guide-rails to help student-athletes navigate the new NIL landscape. Enter Kim Whitler. She co-wrote Athlete Brands: How to Benefit from Your Name, Image and Likeness. And: In 2020, Sha'Carri Richardson was barred from representing Team USA at the Tokyo Olympics because she tested positive for marijuana. Jo Morrison says there are many other elite athletes like Richardson who've had their reputations tarnished for taking banned substances that have little to no evidence of enhancing performance. Later in the show: For runners, there's nothing like the freedom of lacing up your shoes and putting foot to pavement, logging mile after mile in the open air. Sabrina Little studies how running can hone virtues that are beneficial to life outside of sports. Plus: While golf might not be a high-octane contact sport like basketball or football, it's something you can play throughout your life and even into your later years. Carray Banks is on a mission to generate funding to field both women's and men's golf teams at all HBCUs in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.

On today's episode of The SaaS CFO Podcast, I sit down with Luke Arrigoni, founder of Loti, a trailblazing SaaS company using AI to help individuals, celebrities, and brands find—and remove—content that doesn't belong on the internet. Luke brings a fascinating background, moving from academic math and early data science roles to building cutting-edge machine learning products well before “AI” became the buzzword it is today. We dig into the story of how an unusual client project turned into a fast-growing business now protecting everyone from concerned consumers to household-name celebrities to major intellectual property holders. Luke doesn't just share the Loti origin story, he also gets real about the lessons learned in raising $24 million in venture capital, how their go-to-market evolved, and why the company is now laser-focused on market share over pure revenue growth. Whether you're curious about using AI for digital protection, want to pick up fundraising tips, or just love real stories from SaaS founders in the trenches, this conversation delivers actionable insights and some seriously honest founder wisdom. Plus, Luke teases a big expansion for Loti on the horizon—so you'll want to hear what's coming next.

If you want to understand one of the biggest power shifts happening in sports and branding right now, look no further than the WNBA. In this episode of Brand Slam, Steve Rosa and Joe Kayata sit down with Connecticut Sun President Jen Rizzotti to break down the rise of women's sports, and why it's not just a moment, but a movement transforming the industry. Rizzotti, a trailblazer who led UConn to its first national title in 1995 and went on to win two WNBA championships, shares her unique perspective on how the narrative around women's sports is evolving, it's a branding shift with staying power. The conversation kicks off with Jen's reflections on how cultural momentum, increased media visibility and next-gen stars like Caitlin Clark have helped transform women's basketball into a mainstream powerhouse. The trio digs into the “branding tsunami” that's hitting the WNBA, where increased attendance, stronger TV deals and bolder brand partnerships are redefining what success looks like for a professional women's league. Listeners get an insider view into how the WNBA is marketing its expansion by adding teams in Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia over the next five years, and how smart city selection and community engagement are core strategies. Jen also opens up about the Connecticut Sun's own success story, including selling out TD Garden and what Boston's market could mean for the franchise's future. Beyond the court, the episode explores the rapidly shifting dynamics of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) in college sports and how it might have changed the game for Jen's era of players. She highlights how today's women athletes are now more empowered than ever to build their personal brands and secure meaningful partnerships. This is essential listening for any brand looking to align with purpose and momentum—because women's sports aren't just rising, they're rewriting the playbook.

Welcome to the third State of the Sport, where we will be taking a hard look at what is REALLY going on in various sports over the summer with a subject matter expert.Today, Friend of the Show David Profusek will be dissecting the current State of College Football.During the course of the last few seasons, College Football has undergone a dramatic change. Name, Image, Likeness, or NIL for short, has completely changed the game in college sports, but especially football. Now, players who would be sitting on the bench at a big name school have gone to smaller schools to play right away due to money. It has created a free-for-all in the college sports recruiting landscape that has caused head coaches like Lincoln Riley, Mario Cristobal and Brian Kelly to leave their roles at Oklahoma, Oregon and Notre Dame for USC, Miami FL and LSU, respectively. Starting last season, the Big 10 expanded to include USC, UCLA, Washington and Oregon while the SEC snatched Texas and Oklahoma from the Big 12, essentially eliminating the Pac-12 and creating two super conferences. Both conferences received new media deals, with the Big 10 securing contracts with FOX, CBS and NBC while the SEC went to ESPN/ABC. The super conferences also forced the expansion of the four-team College Football Playoff to 12 teams, which featured four first-round byes and first-round matchups at the higher seed's building.Changes in College Football continued to happen this offseason, as Bill Belichick joined the college ranks, along with former NFL General Manager Michael Lombardi, as they headed to Chapel Hill at North Carolina. The Belichick-Lombardi pairing sparked the beginning of the general manager-era in college football to help deal with NIL in this wild era of recruiting. Next to Deion Sanders at Colorado, there may not be a more anticipatory debut in the sport than Belichick at UNC. College Football is expected to implement more changes in the next few seasons. More playoff teams, a salary cap for NIL and more conference realignment are all on the table.And now ladies and gentleman, let me introduce to you, the man who is going to help the audience of Brandon's World understand the State of College Football. He is a College Football expert.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Superman Fans Go After Clay A fiery and humorous critique of Hollywood’s political messaging, with a sharp focus on the controversy surrounding the new Superman movie directed by James Gunn. The hosts open with a lighthearted jab at CNN’s Wolf Blitzer and his infamous Jeopardy performance, using it as a springboard to discuss media credibility and public perception. The bulk of the hour centers on the Superman movie backlash, where Clay Travis criticizes Gunn’s framing of Superman as an immigrant and the broader trend of injecting progressive politics into iconic characters. Travis argues that Superman should remain an apolitical symbol of universal values like truth and justice, not a vehicle for modern immigration debates. The hosts explore whether Superman is better understood as an asylum seeker rather than an immigrant, given his extraterrestrial origins and adoption by American parents. OH Rep. Jim Jordan Congressman Jim Jordan tout the recently passed Big Beautiful Bill’s middle-class tax cuts, investment in border security, and pro-growth reforms. They argue it will stimulate job creation, repatriate manufacturing, and shield Americans from inflation-driven tax hikes. The show also covers the evolving landscape of college athletics, focusing on bipartisan legislation to regulate NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) compensation. Congressman Jordan outlines a proposed federal framework to protect student-athletes, enforce agent transparency, and establish eligibility standards—aiming to bring order to what he calls a “broken” system. The interview wraps with President Trump’s rumored plans for a UFC fight on the White House lawn. TX Sen. John Cornyn A sobering update from Texas Senator John Cornyn on the devastating Hill Country flooding, which has claimed over 120 lives and left 170 missing. The hosts and Senator Cornyn explore the urgent need for improved flood warning systems and emergency preparedness, especially for nighttime disasters. Listeners are encouraged to support Texas flood victims through fundraising efforts promoted on ClayandBuck.com. The conversation shifts to a shocking ambush on federal law enforcement officers in Alvarado, Texas, where 11 suspects have been charged. Senator Cornyn condemns the attack and links it to escalating anti-police rhetoric, emphasizing the need for strong support of ICE and law enforcement agencies. Illegal immigration and border security take center stage as Cornyn praises the Trump administration’s efforts to restore control at the southern border. He highlights the renewed morale among Border Patrol agents and the shift from humanitarian overload to national security enforcement. Run Jasmine, Run! The high-stakes 2026 Texas Senate race. Senator Cornyn discusses potential challengers, including Ken Paxton and Jasmine Crockett, and the strategic importance of maintaining Republican control in a politically pivotal state. The hosts speculate on whether President Trump will weigh in on the primary, underscoring the national implications of the race.

In our Religion Block we share a new “Pastor Jack's Off” segment, this time hearing Jack Hibbs insist that all non-believers share a vehement hatred of evangelical Christians, but that the latter must endure that hatred out of love for God. Unfortunately for Pastor Jack, if he is in fact “hated,” it has absolutely nothing to do with his so-called faithfulness to Christ and everything to do with his politics.
