The Pivot Podcast On Shaking Up Athlete-Media, Unfiltered Banter, Mental Health Conversations + More

[@Msshayson1]

I transitioned from I Am Athlete to The Pivot like it was nothing. These guys banter is entertaining and enlightening at the same time.

[@GOATLAVISH777]

They all compliment each other’s personalities, RC is the mediator, Channing is the wild one that asks the non politically correct questions and then Fred asks the deeper more introspective questions

The reason the Pivot Podcast is SO DOPE and #1, is because of how AUTHENTICALLY themselves they are. Their genuine chemistry translates in the way they interview and interact with their guests and each other. They allow their guests have the comfortability to open up and SPEAK, without constant interruptions… Which in turn, makes for a great interview! Also, how “PIVOTAL” is it, that they will edit out whatever or even table a whole interview, if the guest wasn’t happy with what they said… EVEN THOUGH they have the contracts signed and money invested in the interview!!!! It’s the HONOR and RESPECT they show for ME!!! I admire these 3 men… You can absolutely tell it’s not about the money with them, it’s about being true to themselves and fair to each other and their guests!!! I could go on and on, but y’all already know. Lol

They all bring something to show which I love . Ryan has the best questions and knows how to open the guest up and make them feel comfortable and more authentic.
