Joe and Scott are joined by Christian Ponder, Former NFL Quarterback and founder of The Post. During this episode, Ponder discussed his personal transformation from a professional athlete to a thriving entrepreneur. He shares the path of establishing The Post, a networking hub and database for former college or pro athletes turned business people. The Post's objective is to offer a sense of belonging to athletes after their playing careers and to create a robust leadership network for individuals who have honed their soft skills through sports. Ponder stressed the importance of aiding athletes in their transition by developing a strong sense of community, which many often yearn for after retiring from sports.
