The CUSP Show

418: Dan Roberts on Front Office Sports, Digital Media Growth, and Private Equity Investment in Sports


Listen Later

Joe is joined on Radio Row by Dan Roberts, Editor in Chief at Front Office Sports, for a discussion into the evolution of sports media and the business trends shaping the industry. They discuss the rapid growth of Front Office Sports, the importance of covering what’s interesting—not just what’s new—and the challenge of converting social media viewership into engaged readership.

Dan also shares insights on the increasing private equity investment in international sports and the current state of NIL in college athletics. A Columbia alumnus, Dan began his career at Fortune Magazine before moving to Yahoo Finance. He later served as Editor in Chief at Decrypt and Variant in the crypto space before joining Front Office Sports.

The CUSP Show is hosted by Joe Favorito (@Joefav) and Tom Richardson (@ConvergenceTR) and produced by Karthik Iyer (@bykarthikiyer), Freddie Walker (@freddiewalks), LJ Holmgren (@LJ_Holmgren), and Danny Hagenlocher (@DhColumbiaSPS), with social media efforts led by Pragna Prasanna, Breah Banks, and Lissa Ruiz.
