Keith Hernandez (not the Mets guy!) is Founder and Partner at Launch Angle, and Host of the podcast The Changeup (again, not a baseball reference!). His prior jobs include Bleacher Report, Slate Magazine, and Buzzfeed.
We discussed:
- How often people mistake him for Keith Hernandez of the Mets, but how it works in his favor when making restaurant reservations
- Shift in content creation from his time at Bleacher Report to 2022
- Athletes building their brand away from sports, and did it all begin with LeBron James?
- Considerations for branded content and athletes, what is working and what isn’t
- Thoughts on NIL (Name, Image, Likeness)
- His career arc, how he got an internship and started in the industry
- His firefighter stories… no, really
- What he’s up to now with Launch Angle
