Free Agents: A Pod about Sports, Culture, and Being Unemployed

I was once a human being who found fascination in others, in believing in them; in knowing what or what things made those people what they ended up being. I used to love that way, relate that way to others

Welcome back to the Free Agents Podcast! This week, we are so thankful to have been joined by Colin Cosell, the public address announcer for the New York Mets and Riptide, while also being a renaissance man in his spare time. Learn about Jeff McNeil's favorite word, working during and "post" pandemic, and how managing an East Village bar brought him to Citi Field.

As mentioned in the episode, any NYers should check out a Riptide game! Link is here for tickets. 

Another week, another fantastic guest! We welcome Leah Chansky, the Director of People and Talent at CSM Sport and Entertainment, to the pod to talk all things jobs, hiring, and honey on pizza (?!). Last 15 minutes are an incredible listen for anyone who is still looking for a job, or wants to learn more about what goes into hiring a candidate! Tl:dr, ONE page resumes only...

No non-guest episode, but thankfully we are joined by the always fun Michael Gallagher! From UVA Football practice injuries, to NYU Grad School, to finding your place, and working at a startup, this episode is a fun one.

For this weeks guest, we are joined by sports broadcaster/jack of all trades Dana Grey, who gives us the inside look at how he became the broadcaster for the best team on Earth: the Brooklyn Cyclones. From how he got into broadcasting, what his day job at B/R is all about (spoiler: it is very cool), and some great parting advice for anyone trying to enter the sports industry. Thanks so much for your conversation and wisdom Dana!

After some scheduling difficulties, the Free Agents are back and have some major announcements! Spoiler: the name of the pod might need a change... Other topics discussed include contracts, expectations vs. reality, Delta, the future of college, and what we should have learned in school.

The Free Agents welcome their first guest of Season 2, NYU Associate Professor, Athlete Story Teller, and Unicorn, David Cooper. Lots of great stuff on how to get your career started, learning from failures, women in sports, and how to always be grateful. Really grateful to have Coop on, and hope you all enjoy!

Happy (belated) 4th of July! The Free Agents give a quick rundown of their extravagant plans from yesterday (spoiler: not a whole lot), a deep dive into scheduling email, and the roast of group projects. Leave us any questions on our Instagram @officialfreeagentspod!

After two of the Free Agents fell ill, there was another short break, but health permitting, we're back!

Resume packed episode: from revising what you have, to deciding what to keep on/leave off, and the greatest question of our time: picture or nah? Also some audience questions and flight horror stories to start the pod off on a positive note.

Any questions that arise, ask away on our IG! We will try to answer them in the next episode.
