Sharing Passion and Purpose

Sports and pop culture go hand-in-hand, and Amy Siegfried, co-founder of Last Night’s Game, is eager to connect you with both. She has made it her business to watch from the sideline, so others don’t always have to. Her goal is to educate people about the wide world of sports by connecting them with trending topics to maximize conversations that people engage in throughout the day, including those around the water cooler.

Through this endeavor, she is working to help level the playing field for those who don’t have time or interest in following athletics by providing a quick dose of content on trending topics through her podcast, Sports Curious.

In addition to this, she and her husband, Raegen, have a son who Amy lovingly refers to as the “tiny human” on her social media. In this visit, you’ll learn a little more about how she defines success, her interest in helping others and how she got to be a master of small talk!
