Rob Jay Show

I've never used these words before when it comes to my podcast but I’m confident in calling this interview an Instant Classic. Carlos Hurt is a legend, a Houston basketball prodigy who’s basketball feats are still remembered to this day. A former McDonalds All American who terrorized opponents. Considered by many Houstonians as one of the greatest offensive talents ever seen at the high school level. Self described as un athletic and slow his secret weapon was one that can’t be quantified on a stat sheet or seen with the naked eye. Carlos Hurt was fueled by a love of the game.

While it seemed he was on the fast track to the NBA, mistakes and costly decisions of his youth led to a once forgone conclusion slipping away. Not one to run from his truth, Carlos Hurt opened up for a candid conversation and shared his story. More than a basketball player, he is a basketball historian full of almost unbelievable basketball stories of himself and many other greats. An ultimate team player who to this day enjoys sharing credit with his teammates. He possesses a superb memory an can recall his teammates going back to when he was 7 years old. I could listen to him talk basketball all day.

A solid brother and good dude. He came on my podcast as a guest and left as a friend. #ballislife

Sean Falyon Be Everywhere is the most fitting nickname that I've ever heard someone have. An Artist, DeeJay, Nightlife Advocate and co creator of Get Brunch amongst other things. Originally from Philly and now residing in Atlanta, his consistency and willingness to travel to wherever he needs to be have broken down doors and created lanes for him: first as an emcee and now behind the 1's and 2's. A world class networker, he has the unique ability rapidly build authentic connections with influential people. He's also a local pioneer of what I've dubbed "the second life". Where you have a crew, friends, revenue streams and a growing network in a city that you don't reside in. Though based in Atlanta he's built a tribe so strong in Houston that people think he resides there. I caught up with Sean to discuss his journey through music, his strategies for relationship building and much more. The Bul delivered and sprinkled a lot jewels in throughout this jawn
