In this episode of On Stage, two visionary leaders—Mellody Hobson, Co-CEO and President of Ariel Investments, and Ted Leonsis, Founder, Chairman & CEO of Monumental Sports & Entertainment—share the stage at SBJ's Dealmakers Conference in Washington, D.C., on November 30, 2023. Hobson, a nationally recognized financial executive and advocate for financial literacy, speaks candidly about how Ariel Investments approaches long-term value creation, why patience is critical in both markets and leadership, and how she's worked to open doors for underrepresented groups in business. She also reflects on lessons from serving on the boards of major companies like JPMorgan Chase and Starbucks, and the importance of making investment decisions that align with values as well as returns. Leonsis, a longtime entrepreneur, sports owner, and investor, brings the perspective of a dealmaker who has navigated growth across technology, media, and sports. Together, their conversation touches on what makes partnerships endure, the responsibility of leaders to connect business with community impact, and how innovation is reshaping both finance and sports. This dialogue is both practical and inspiring—grounded in real-world lessons while offering a vision for how business and sports leaders can drive growth with purpose.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Daniel Pollack-Pelzner, cultural omnivore and author of Lin-Manuel Miranda: The Education of an Artist, is back for round two and the deep dive continues! This week, Daniel tells us all about the time Stephen Sondheim visited Lin's high school dished the dirt about West Side Story with a room full of teenage theatre kids. That's where Lin learned that not even Sondheim nails it on the first try, and the messy process can lead to something even better than the original. That could be its own episode but hell no there's so much more going on this week! Among other things Daniel talks about what *he* learned while writing the book, the power of a great cliffhanger (seriously, you'll get chills!), and the importance of finding your field of other people in bee costumes. Ahem... I trust you'll understand the reference to the 90's lore without my having to name that tune. Plus, Daniel fills is in about his work on Mary Kathryn Nagle's upcoming (and currently untitled) documentary film on tribal consulting tribal sovereignty in law and theater, and the often-overlooked epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW).

Description:This episode of On Stage takes us deeper into the SBJ archives than ever before, revisiting a keynote interview from the 2016 Intercollegiate Athletics Forum with Paul Tagliabue, the longtime former commissioner of the National Football League. Tagliabue, who led the NFL from 1989 to 2006, oversaw one of the league's most transformative eras: four expansion franchises, high-profile franchise relocations, and landmark decisions that reflected the NFL's influence on culture and society—from postponing games after 9/11 to moving a Super Bowl over Arizona's refusal to recognize Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2020, his impact continues to shape the sports landscape today. In conversation with SBJ's Publisher and Executive Editor Abe Madkour, Tagliabue reflects on leadership, governance, social responsibility, and the business of sports during his time at the helm. Listening now, nearly a decade later, provides unique perspective: a reminder of how far the industry has come and how timeless lessons in integrity, vision, and adaptability remain. This is the beauty of On Stage: giving important conversations from SBJ's archives new life, showing how they continue to inform the issues and debates of today.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Description:In this episode of On Stage, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred joins SBJ Senior Writer Joe Lemire for a candid conversation on the business, challenges, and opportunities shaping professional baseball. Recorded on April 22, 2025, at the CAA World Congress of Sports presented by Sports Business Journal, this keynote captures Manfred's perspective just months before major headlines about MLB's labor landscape and new national media rights negotiations. While the news cycle has since moved quickly—with fresh updates on his talks with players over the next labor agreement and signs of progress on a new media deal—this conversation offers an evergreen look at the commissioner's leadership priorities and long-term vision for the league. Topics include: Labor Relations: How MLB approaches dialogue with the players' union and lessons from past negotiations. Media and Distribution Strategy: MLB's vision for its next rights deal and the role of direct-to-consumer streaming. The Business of the Game: Expanding MLB's global reach and deepening engagement with younger fans. Competition and On-Field Innovation: Balancing tradition with changes that improve pace of play and overall fan experience. Leadership at the Helm: What it takes to guide a century-old league in a rapidly evolving sports landscape. It's a valuable snapshot of the commissioner's thinking—one that's as relevant today as when he stepped on stage.

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has set the Latin music scene abuzz in the past few days with a whirlwind of headline-making activity. Rolling Stone reports that the breakout star capped off July by dropping a new single titled Gervonta, a luxe anthem referencing boxer Gervonta Davis who even promoted the release on his own Instagram story. This marks Peso Pluma's first major release since his album Exodo, and once again spotlights his signature blend of extravagance, fame, and Mexican musical roots. On the business front, Variety highlights his meteoric rise with the upcoming release of his new album Genesis, a project he has been developing over the past year in partnership with Double P Records and Prajin Music Group. Peso's genre-spanning collaborations draw in heavy-hitters from Mexico and Puerto Rico and have helped secure his place among Spotify's most-streamed global artists.However, Peso Pluma's fame isn't without its controversies. Parriva reports that on July 25, he received public warnings regarding his songs' alleged links to organized crime, raising ongoing discussions about the cultural influence and social responsibilities of regional Mexican music's leading lights. While these warnings have reignited debates on censorship and artistic expression, there is currently no evidence of official action against Peso Pluma.The singer's personal life has drawn as much attention as his music. According to People and AOL, Peso Pluma's relationship drama with Argentinian singer Nicki Nicole has been splashed all over social media this week. After footage surfaced of Peso holding hands with another woman at a Las Vegas casino during Super Bowl weekend, Nicki Nicole released a pointed Instagram Story about love and respect, all but confirming the end of their high-profile romance. In the wake of the breakup, AOL notes that his relationship with model Hanna Howell has become increasingly public, starting to make headlines in their own right.Onstage, Peso Pluma's dominance remains clear. The Fresno Bee covers his recent arena tour stop, describing a production that elevates Mexican corrido culture to new heights of mainstream visibility and impact. Clips circulating on Instagram show fans dissecting streaming numbers from his most recent album and reminiscing over past collaborations, underscoring how every public move makes waves in the music community.As Baja Beach Fest draws near with Peso Pluma in the headline mix, his past week reflects both his superstar allure and the persistent scrutiny of public life at the summit of Latin music. With chart-topping releases, headline-grabbing relationships, and the scrutiny of cultural watchdogs, Peso Pluma's every step keeps fans and critics glued to the latest from música Mexicana's hottest name.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
