On this episode of Behind the Mic: Powered by REVOLT Podcast Network, we sit down with Chanelle Reynolds — host of not one, but two podcasts on the network: The Success Playbook and The Double Dose Podcast. From her work in the NFL to her passion for podcasting, Chanelle is carving out space for Black stories and Black excellence in every room she enters.

She talks about her journey in sports, navigating major transitions at the Washington Commanders, and how mentorship and DEI work are central to her identity both on and off the mic.

B-Sides Track of the Week

Chanelle takes it to church with Marvin Sapp’s “Praise Him in Advance.” A gospel pick that keeps her grounded, uplifted, and aligned — especially as her name continues to rise.

“You can’t take DEI out of sports. It didn’t start with us, so it’s not gonna end with us.” - Chanelle S. Reynolds
