Is Caitlin Clark Underpaid? | The Sagnik Show

Caitlin Clark is making $338,056 over four years under her contract with the Indiana Fevers. In contrast, last year's No. 1 NBA draft pick bagged a $55 million four-year contract. But is that all there is to the story? How much will Caitlin make through brand deals? And why exactly is there a disparity between male and female athletes?

About this podcast:

Being a creator today has no rulebook so the best you can do is ask people who are doing it right.

 Hey - my name is Sagnik and I have worked in the media industry for the last decade, ranging from broadcast news to YouTubers. Now I am hosting conversations with creatives and entrepreneurs driving the creator economy.

Welcome to The Sagnik Show — where politics, media, and identity collide.

Over the past decade, I’ve worked across legacy and new media, from FOX to independent platforms alongside people like Tucker Carlson, Saagar Enjeti, and Krystal Ball.

I didn’t come to the U.S. to cover politics—I just happened to fall into it. What followed was an unexpected crash course in the American political machine, taught by some of the sharpest (and most polarizing) voices in the business.

This show is my attempt to process what I’ve learned—and unlearned.

I also speak with creators and entrepreneurs building media on their own terms—people forging new paths outside the traditional gatekeepers.

I’m not here to sell you anything. None of this is monetized. I’m just grateful you’re listening.
