Brandon Marshall OPENS UP on the I AM ATHLETE breakup… | Funky Friday with Cam Newton

[@tjellsw]

Cam Really showed why he was a successful QB in the NFL. Trying to lead an Coach, while letting his brother in arms get everything off his chest. Cam’s an underrated Leader

This was a good episode. I wish the best for B Marsh and his platform and for the Pivot podcast. There’s room for all these Black men to succeed.

[@ViolentMLG]

Brandon messed up by being selfish though. Yeah, I understand the other dudes didn't want to invest early on, and he had to prove it was a good idea. I also understand that he didn't want to give up a larger slice of his company for pennies on the dollar. That's fair. But ultimately, if they had invested early on, he would've had nothing to disagree on later on, so realistically its nothing to get hung up on. Sometimes you have to prove people wrong. The thing he had that was valuable was all of the different personalities. They built that podcast, without them, it doesn't exist. So you have to pay them, or your business loses value, simple as that. A decent portion of their audience DISLIKED Brandon, its not like he could carry it on his own. They realized they could leave, start their own podcast, and make bank. At that point, Brandon accepts 25% of millions, or, 100% of nothing. I think Brandon, with his sky-high ego at the time, with 100% ownership, being prideful, felt the risk was worth it. He probably saw more to gain than what he could lose. He made a choice, he lost, it is what it is.

Man business is business and they should've invested money in the beginning... It's different if nobody invested because Brandon is wearing 2 hats... Matter of fact more hats than that... He's working like them and investing... How are they equal? I'm coming to work just like you and I'm financing the business and you believe we all should be the same. So I'm the employee and working the same hours as you at work... Then I'm finding the sponsorships... And then I'm financing and making the business deals... And I gave all y'all an opportunity to invest in the beginning and you think we are all the same? Nigga ish... Then Fred Taylor admits he was too drunk and high to make a business meeting about his finances and he just says we could've done it another time? And cats are alright with that?

@@CoachQ773 thats what it is. BUT theres like a unwritten rule with our people. Your word is bond. Business wise he was totally correct but he knows how we operate. Had he stepped up and verbally expressed he wanted everyone to make the same effort around the board I believe theyd still be on the show. Instead they felt he told them one thing and tried to get rich off of them. This is why the say family and business dont mix. You have to be upfront and sometimes ruthless

Channing told him explicitly he didn't believe in the vision and he just wanted to get paid... What do you do when somebody tells you that? And then once it takes off and my idea works now you think the investment is the same? They're all millionaires... Why didn't they just put up the 100 thousand then... It's no longer 25 thousand because now I'm in the hole... BS... You actually think it's the same 25 thousand from 1 year ago? Really? Why you always got to baby ni$$@z ...

@@Gardenstategreat1225 That's exactly what he did, he went back on his word. You can't tell someone we are all equal partners (25% each) then come back a year later when the show has blown up and basically say I want to put everyone on salaries while I retain ownership. Very snakish but in the business world it happens all the time which is why you have to have the paperwork in place day one.

Then he says he took meetings without them, switched it up, and pulled the show into his brand. Unbeknownst to the other 3. Then I heard him say his idea was to spin off shows for each of them, under HIS umbrella. He dreamt this up in his head and sprung this on them when they expected 25% of the show.

He was vulnerable, he was at times “raw”. It seems like that wasn’t enough for many. I LOVE LOVE LOVED this episode for so many reasons. We got to see 2 brothers have an open conversation about love, life, loss and SO much more. Cam/Boogie (they both showed up) narrated this interview with the skill and mentality of a QB, sincerity of a brother and honesty of a friend. They will both go far. Hats off to Brandon for being willing to be vulnerable and as open as possible. Hats off to Cam for being brave enough to step in to your purpose. You DID that Beloved. Congratulations , The show is AMAZING. ❤️🙏🏾❤️

Cam Newton is that young uncle that always have wise advice and I love him for that! Mr Newton you are truly a gem 💎❤

[@LisaMcClendonMusic]

The way I love me some B Marsh!!! And I am such a Cam fan!!! This interview showed such a beautiful side of Cam. Loved it. And Brandon... I totally understand his position when people try to "stick it" to you because they know your vulnerable spot. Mental health is a serious thing, and it hurts when people try to use your challenges against you when WE ALLLLL have challenges. B-well B-Marsh!!! We celebrate your journey. Keep doing your thing, Sir Newton!!!

Much respect for both these guys!!! Everyone does not have to work together. They all need to have Cam bring them all in, and have a make up session.

[@Zgrandle787]

Bro, been a Steelers fan all my life but have appreciation for Cam and all he did in football. Now to watch him evolve into media with such power and presence is awesome. I could listen to this dude all day. And his ability to communicate and keep the convo flowing in interviews is amazing. Keep it up Cam!

This is the realist podcast to ever drop. Props to these man to bring awareness to mental and emotional health.

Loved, Loved this episode. I've always admired B. Marshall and I was happy to see him be vunerable and open about everting with IAA!! Good Luck Brandon!! :)

[@JuniorUnruly]

The way Cam said "Dont say that" when he said he aint got nothing good to say about Fred Taylor really really shows how a grown man carry himself and his people

[@pkc11d]

Cam is so real with his emotions after the Super Bowl loss. I’m so glad he spoke this truth.

[@bobcalvin3687]

Cam got this internet content on lock. This dudes interviewing skills is off the charts. Like Brandon said, cam is reaching a new mountain, and climbing to the top. h

[@boomshakalaka8567]

Wdym, he's barely listening to him. Brandon had to repeat himself 3 or 4 times. Cam comes across as a moron.

I watched IAA during the pandemic & truly enjoyed it. But then I start to notice a shift in the series. I was happy when Fred & Channing started the PIVOT!!

[@currenttimes8500]

Cam did his thing. I hope more interviews like this happens. Especially with players being phased out the league. The NFL is truly not for long with new faces to market. It’s not about talent but new content / entertainment unless the league props it.

[@jwanbass]

Salute Cam for listening and sitting through all this even when he didn’t feel like listening. It’s clear he’s hurt cause he still can’t mention the pivot show. He maybe business oriented but hasn’t gotten over himself which is the biggest thing. 2 and a half hrs of listening to him talk of himself and what he’s done. Because of pride we never know what could’ve been.

[@joe103060]

I'm not a sports fan, but I saw a short about this episode that I found intriguing. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The conversations, with two astute businessmen chopping it up about opportunities, accountability, and feelings, were refreshing. I also feel inspired to write out my business plan for 2024 and beyond. Thank you for this candid conversation. Happy New Year to both of you.

[@dr.latifnurudeen9446]

Yo Cam this episode was so powerful. I watched it from the beginning to end in one session. I loved the conversation and the energy displayed. Happy I was able witness it, but even happier to see two black men winning. One love!

Cam I can listen to you talk all day. I learn so much about being a man thru the gems you speak.

[@brentwoods1401]

Phenomenal ep.. If you ever listened to the manner in which Cam answered questions, it was evident this was his lane. A very thoughtful individual. His time in the QC made for some of the most memorable moments. Truly happy for his evolution. And so they thought he was done. Smh.. B Marsh good stuff. Stay positive and watch as that turns into something incredible as far as your dreams are concerned. 🫡 to these brothers

[@a3_vizualz]

Great episode. I appreciate how Cam approached the subject of I Am Athlete without being messy and B Marsh was very transparent with his response.

[@jamesbradley8303]

Cam.....just want you to know i appreciate everything youve done for the sport and appreciate you even more for being who you are and not letting them change you. My son had 3 open heart surgeries and you are his favorite player. Everytime he gets through a surgery, he wakes up and does your superman celly. Thank you, sir.

[@mical2great]

This proves their points to me, when they first talked about leaving they said Brandon tried to MAKE them do more than one thing that they didnt wanna do. Channing and Fred just wanted to Pod and Brandon tried to make a Athletic Disney Channel with a foot in everything but at the end of the day just cause i dont wanna do all the extra stuff doesn't mean im not owed for makin this company what it is. They 100% were owed that 25% cause none of bmarsh other ventures happen without the crowd he got from the pod

[@clintinb5219]

I do think they were owed the 25 percent but I also understand Brandon because he took the risk. What if things went bad? He would have lost all his money. He is not wrong either they should have all put up equal money to begin but they did not believe. I don’t think anyone is wrong it’s just different opinions

[@TheRealist1.]

​@@clintinb5219they weren't due a quarter when they didn't put into it. I think Brandon was thinking bigger than the team, but they weren't there. They never bought into his full vision and they didn't need to. He should've kept things separate for them.

[@Ant-Man612]

@@TheRealist1. He told them 25% & didn’t ask them to come to all those meetings. You can’t go back on agreements with friends and expect it to go right. If he wanted them to put in money and go to meetings, he should’ve made that the agreement in the first place. Maybe change the percentage based on how much work people put in but all of that requires integrity and good communication. Brandon’s all over the place

[@TheRealist1.]

@@Ant-Man612 Fred was the only one interested in the meeting and he missed it. Brandon was busy wheeling and dealing, and that's the only thing I fault him for. He should've communicated not only his dream, but how he intended to achieve it. They weren't privy to the information he was gaining in the meeting, he thought they'd just get on board and they didn't. Trying to build a business around millionaires with their own businesses is tough, if there was other talent they could employ it would've worked. They only see the platform while Marshall was thinking bigger. They're rich and they're not driven to work or build, it was Marshall's idea and a hobby to all but Fred Taylor.

[@Ant-Man612]

@@TheRealist1. I can see that. That’s why you have agreements. Brandon should’ve taken a bigger cut to do all of the extra work along with Fred and everyone else can take a reasonable amount. But you have to be adults and set those agreements up before you get into business. I don’t fault Brandon and the guys for messing up along the way. But as an outsider, it seems to me like he’s not owning up to it and he still hasn’t fully grasped what went wrong. I hope they can move on and they can all do great things.
