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.

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?

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.

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.

Fred needs to talk more I love what he has to say‼️

Fred and Channing were the Flavor of IAA B’Marsh and Chad were the Face the guest brought the excitement!

[@edtrexler5021]

Respect that decision 100%. Organic. They just wanted to bring the boys together for a podcast and chop it up. Brandon wanted cultural impact BY speaking and stressing certain topics every so often. Opposite of organic conversation. Where Channing be talking about crabs and Freaky Fred can change gears instantly yet still bring up whatever topic whenever they want. They’re trying to have fun and make the most out of it. Brandon trying to leverage the opportunity to become a brand w a message. Nothing wrong w either.

Why they got Ryan in the corner like he's at the kids table? 🤣

[@toorude4u]

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.

Thank Fred, Channing, and Rhyan for speaking Truths in a Respectful way. Thank you Beef for the Boys for having them on your show! Awesome!!!!

[@mommatia6095]

WOW. Turned a damn school 🚌 into a lucrative business. And those guys from The Pivot Podcast showed their humility and respect towards others. That's whats up.

[@canetmann]

B marsh overlooks that we been wanting to hear fred taylor talk since the 2000’s lol

[@MAXPRESTIGEEE]

Unfortunately I look at BMARSH differently now. I’m happy Fred and Channing took the high road and started their own thing. Keeping it classy is a lost art. For what it’s worth I hope BMARSH remains successful and both sides can collaborate in the future.

[@ChillRichard]

Why are you looking at him differently?

[@edubbz1987]

This situation mirrors the Joe Budden Podcast breakup so much.

[@annegreene7690]

I really enjoy The Pivot,God Bless.👏🏽👏🏽

[@michaelwilliams7803]

Grown men business! Love the way Fred kept it 💯we can all eat, just on different plates! He really doing it for the fans and comardery!!

[@julian354]

One thing that sucks about all this is that, it’s much easier to have this perspective (prioritizing business goals and outcomes over simply the product) in hindsight. Often, if you are trying to get something creative off the ground, you can get wrapped up in the business side and the actual thing that you are making, in this case a podcast, can be underwhelming and not as successful as it would have been otherwise. Definitely a delicate balance

[@det4ever94]

This is a common situation like 90's rap groups. It's all good at the beginning before the money start rolling in! Then different individuals feel they deserve a bigger cut because they feel they put more in at the beginning.. It breaks friendship up unfortunately

not a good look for b marsh they not trying to salt his name but...

Love the Pivot

[@keva6303]

I thought it was the other way, like Channing was like nah contracts ain’t right. But happy Fred said something and they created their own. Ain’t no hard feelings Brandon ain’t gotta speak on it. It is what it is
