Hosted by Bram Weinstein, the podcast features interviews of sports and tech industry leaders discussing the modernization of the sports experience -- from branding, team building and connectivity, to fans and content creation.
\r\nOn this week’s episode, Matt and Tori discuss Caffeine and Ballislife’s recent partnership and why the two believe the future of sports content is through connected social experiences. Other topics explored include the changes in the media ecosystem, what’s missing from traditional media (hint: it’s the harboring of creator authenticity), and so much more. You can catch the full conversation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Audible.
\r\nThe podcast is dropping right ahead of Ballislife’s upcoming winter event, live from Florida and streaming for free on Caffeine. Featuring streetball legends like Slim, Duke Skywalker, Austin Mills, Zach Hodskins, Tim Carter and Niven Glover, the BIL East Coast Squad is taking on ZONE6, made up of Cam Wilder, RyanTheCrashDummy, DriftyJayy, JDub, Brandon Belot, Jayden Belot, and Marc Stephens. The two teams are playing best of 5 to see which elite squad takes home the $10K prize.
\r\nTune into Caffeine on Saturday starting at 3p PT / 6p ET to see what the hype is all about!
