The NCAA Influencers Are Coming
On today’s episode, Rachelle and Madison turn the show into a sports podcast. First, they discuss the recent news in college sports that allows athletes like Sedona Prince to finally make money off their personal brands, a major shift after years of schools profiting off of students without compensation. Then, they talk about how even though the Olympics haven’t begun, they’re getting an early start on TikTok.
Olympic athletes to follow:
Women's rugby player Ilona Maher
Men's volleyball player Erik Shoji
Paralympic swimmer Anastasia Pagonis
Skateboarder Heimana Reynolds
Women's rower Kenny Chase
Podcast production by Daniel Schroeder and Derek John.
