UP411 UP US: The North American Sports Business in 3 Stories

Unofficial Partner Podcast

We go deep in to the North American market today with Daniel Kaplan, one of the very best reporters covering the US sports business beat. I’ve known Daniel for over twenty years, first when he covered tennis and the NFL for SportsBusiness Journal, and then more latterly at The Athletic, Front Office Sports and Awful Announcing, the sports media news site.

We dissect three recent stories involving some of the biggest names in the US market: NFL, UFC, NBC and the Olympic Games.
This week’s Unofficial Partner Podcast is sponsored by Loughborough University London and the Institute of Sports Humanities
