  • I AM ATHLETE is one of the biggest brands in the sports world right now. In this clip from Episode 136, find out why Channing and Fred ultimately left the show and started The Pivot.
    FULL EPISODE: • Why I AM ATHLETE Broke...
    -----
    Get on the bus with NFL players Will Compton & Taylor Lewan! The Boys are letting you in on their hilarious, high-energy (and often heartfelt) conversations. Topics range from exclusive stories to active player perspectives to out-of-left-field hot takes on things you and your friends only discuss behind closed doors. Sometimes they chat with a guest, sometimes it's just the two of them, but it's always a good time when you're Bussin' With The Boys.
    And yes, this is the podcast where Mike Vrabel said he'd cut his piece off for a Super Bowl.

    I maintain the I Am Athlete podcast gave fans what they always wanted. Uncensored big name players talking about ball, life, and experience. And now The Pivot is delivering that exact content we want. We never wanted gyms, or branding. We wanted the stories, personal experiences, and advice while also laughing our asses off.

    Fred spelled it out. They weren't getting paid what they agreed upon but they were cool with it and B Marsh used that money to grow the podcast. Fred thought that meant when it came time to really get the paperwork done the money he never received would give him certain equity in the company and BMarsh disagreed that it should be less. BMarsh wanted them to share in the profit but not actually have a piet of the business. It's the same thing Joe Budden did to Rory and mal.

      It's called the Joe Budden podcast so I can't believe that Rory and Mal would believe they had an ownership stake in that? If they did, why allow the change of name? Owning and creating something is a little bit more than co-hosting too. Maybe it would be good to do what Swiss and Timbo did with negotiating stock for artists who participated but I believe that is in Triller, the things that is really making some money. But I don't think turning up to co-host means you own it. BM should have paid them what they were owed and got a loan to grow the brand further. If they didn't agree on the profit split then they did the right thing to end things amicably and I think they will do better doing their own thing. I just don't understand the expectation of ownership aspect unless you are actually fronting up money to invest in the growth?

IAA needs to also have the utmost respect toward the "PIVOT" as well. There's so much room for everyone to be a winner in this game. However, I did see a slight by Brandon of IAA when the lady chef was talking about her dream of owning a food truck, and she mention in gest the word "PIVOT" - Brandon wanted to feel some way about it as he sarcastically laughed is a demeanor not becoming of a friend to his fellow friends (Fred and Channing) and that made me take him down a few pegs. Come on "B" you gotta give Fred and Channing their flowers as well and keep it moving forward. RC is a great fit for the PIVOT, and I wish everyone nothing but the best.

    Sounds like they started as an outlet of brotherly love and neighbors during the pandemic and it grew from episode 1. Brandon always had the name and was smart to tie it into his training facility. So from an evaluation standpoint he put money upfront frost snd owns the name and others wanted even or close to equals equity. So I can understand why they left and I think it’s room for both sides to thrive. I think the biggest takeaways are having your business/paperwork together and the fact that they split amicably without throwing each other under the bus in public. That’s maturity and the definition of professionalism and I love to see this amongst Black men or anyone for that matter.

      I think Brandon put the initial investment into the podcast. I think for them to buy in at a later date, it was much more than Fred or Channing wanted to pay. Ideally, you would hope they could have worked it out, but Brandon wants to grow the business into several lanes. Fred and Channing didn't seem they wanted to do that. I believe everything worked out for the best. I think the mistake would be to think we have to choose sides. If you want to watch one podcast, you can, or you can watch both.

    I subscribed, followed, recommend and shares both of these shows since I discovered them. And this is why Fred Warner is a smart man. They broke up, and he took the high road and kept it professional because in the end there are enough fans who only want to see great content. Each show benefits from each other. For example, I found the Bussin with the boys simply because I follow The Pivot and IAA, and all I care about is content. Channing is the funny man on the Pivot, and Ochoa Cinco is the man on IAA.
