Podcast appearances and mentions of todd boehly

There's always turmoil - tariff volatility is just today's I've been doing this at TicketManager for going on 18 years. I can't remember a period longer than 30 days when there wasn't some crazy turmoil in the world. It's a selling point for the news and something people say to each other all the time to justify whatever they're looking to justify—whether it's anxiety, poor performance, or a lack of vision for the future. Since we started this company, we have had a Global recession, a Series A squeeze, a global pandemic, the city around our HQ burned down, a Covid bounce, a white-collar recession, historic inflation, and on and on. Today, it's the tariff volatility Tomorrow it'll be something else. That's the game. As an entrepreneur, complaining about it and yearning for certainty is a waste of time. If it were easy, everyone would do it. There's nothing better than thriving through those things. It brings a sense of accomplishment I didn't understand going in. StubHub pulls its IPO as the ticketing darlings of the mid-2010s are cratering. When I left StubHub in 2007, I had drinks with a couple of executives there. They couldn't believe why I was leaving. I told them, simply: I don't think you have any defensible moat. Eventually, the content providers, tours, bands, and teams are going to find a way to get back control of what they're selling. And I believe they should have that control. Then what? It turns out I was very wrong about how long it took, but we're here now. The primaries are stronger than ever. Ticketmaster and Live Nation are thriving, Tickets.com is doing well, and AXS is growing and has found its market. All three are monetizing their tech and including secondary in their offerings. The secondary, however? Behind the scenes, there are a lot of phone calls from investors and weary CEOs looking for homes for companies that were supposedly worth hundreds of millions or “billions” just a few years ago. StubHub can't find a way to service its debt Vivid Seats' market cap has dropped to under 600 million, making it nearly impossible for them to go private. Meanwhile, investor Todd Boehly is getting heat in London for his involvement in the secondary. The list goes on and on. There are many other darlings who raised too much money and still can't turn a profit. If they stop paying for CAC, the numbers get terrifying (StubHub is in this boat - anyone who read their S1 saw the inefficient marketing spend). The spigot has closed. And some big names are starting to look like they're about to become zombies if someone doesn't pick them up on the cheap. I believe there will be at least two transactions and two CEO scalps by Q2 2026. Augusta further proves the big are getting bigger. The Masters market went bonkers this week. It's a trend that's been happening recently with major events that have a static home. The sought-after events that have a regular home are becoming increasingly powerful, while events and teams in smaller markets are struggling. Companies are still spending; they're just moving the spending around as they become more sophisticated. I had lunch with a mentor several years ago, and he said something that still bothers me today. He was talking about how AI is coming and it's probably going to wipe out the middle class. He used the example of truck drivers, thousands of whom were going to be out of work in the near future. He told me, "You have to get on the other side of the fence before there is no middle class, because that's how it is in most of the world" (he is not from the United States and does not live here). That gap seems to be growing in live events right now. People can't get enough of the top events, like The Masters, The Kentucky Derby, The US Open of Tennis, and The PLAYERS; they're all thriving. There seems to be no end in sight to their hospitality offerings. The customers can't get enough. To that end, our team on the ground is reporting a number of broken StubHub orders. Customers coming to us asking for help after they went to pick up their badges and were turned away. Augusta is going to shut down the secondary market. And we're here for it.

Since Chelsea's takeover by Todd Boehly and Clearlake capital, the Blues have spent - unlike any other club bringing in the likes of Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez and Joao Felix.

Today's guest is Infinite Athlete founder Charlie Ebersol. Infinite Athlete has been a sports business story since the brand suddenly appeared on Chelsea's shirt at the start of last season.It's a story with a lot of baggage: Ebersol is former boyfriend of Maria Sharapova and Britney Spears, and son of actress Susan St James and Dick Ebersol, the legendary NBC Sport chairman. IA is backed by Andreesen Horowitz, Silver Lake, Endeavour and Todd Boehly, the Chelsea co-owner. Insert the boring but important phrase ‘Associated Party Transactions'. All parties were asked by the Premier League about potential conflicts of interest and whether the sponsorship value of the shirt exceeded fair market value, which is a slippery concept in and of itself. The final sentence of this paragraph is: ‘The Premier League approved the deal after thorough scrutiny'.That story, or a version of it, is how many people talk about Infinite Athlete. Charlie Ebersol's responses to this narrative are really interesting, and I'll leave you to have a listen and judge for yourself.We then get to the other question, which is: WTF is Infinite Athlete?Using Chelsea as a use case, Ebersol is good on the big problem of sports tech, which AI is about to make worse.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

In dieser Episode widmen wir uns dem faszinierenden und oft kontroversen Chelsea FC. Die "Blues" haben seit der Übernahme durch das BlueCo-Konsortium um Todd Boehly im Jahr 2022 nicht nur wirklich positive Schlagzeilen gemacht, sondern für viel Skepsis und Unterhaltung gesorgt. Von einer überbordenden Kadergröße bis hin zu teuren Transfers und langfristigen Verträgen, bei Chelsea ist Chaos nie weit weg. Doch unter Trainer Enzo Maresca scheint sich die Lage zu stabilisieren: Die Mannschaft zeigt starke Leistungen in der Premier League und beeindruckt in der Conference League.

It's time for The Truth!Sam Tighe and Dougie Critchley take a deep dive on a transfer that stunned many observers last summer, when Chelsea spent £115, a British record fee, to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton & Hove Albion. Caicedo had been one of the Premier League's revelations the season before, but it took a while for him to get his feet under the table at Stamford Bridge. Many were quick to write the transfer off as another piece of business where Todd Boehly had spent way too much money on a player who was performing well at the time, but since 2024 began, Caicedo has begun to show exactly why Chelsea were desperate to gazump Liverpool for the Ecuadorian's signature. We discuss his impact on Enzo Maresca's resurgent Chelsea side, and what has changed for the Blues to get the best out of Caicedo since the turn of the year, as well as examining his sometime midfield partner Enzo Fernandez, and wondering if that partnership might be one that ends sooner rather than later with Romeo Lavia now staking his claim for a starting spot alongside Caicedo. Is Moises Caicedo on a trajectory to be one of the best midfielders on the planet, or is the fee still too high for a player who doesn't seem to have all that many goals in his locker, even if he's brilliant at everything else? The Truth is somewhere in the middle...  And remember, if you'd like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?

It's time for The Truth!Sam Tighe and Dougie Critchley sit down to discuss the hottest topic in the world of football right now - whether Chelsea's transfer strategy is a 4D Chess plan that will leave others in the dust, or a chaotic playground of excess that's destined to struggle for some time. Chelsea's additions of João Felix, Jadon Sancho, Pedro Neto, Tosin Adarabioyo, Marc Guiu, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Filip Jorgensen, amid others - caused some consternation on social media; whilst their outgoings of Conor Gallagher, Ian Maatsen, Thiago Silva and Lewis Hall depleted the squad further of homegrown talent and valuable experience. It led to a bit of an online firestorm regarding what Chelsea were up to under Todd Boehly and Clearlake, and whether the soul of the club was being traded in to allow for a blitzkrieg transfer policy to remain in operation. Is the whole thing a disaster, or could it be that Chelsea are just a few steps ahead of the rest?The Truth is somewhere in the middle... Hosts: Sam Tighe & Dougie CritchleyProduction & Editing: Jack Collins Studio Recording: Footwork Media And remember, if you'd like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?
