This episode exists to expel the idea that brown CEOs only exist in tech. The new CEO of Starbucks is Indian. CEOs of South Asian descent are crushing it in every industry, with 30% of Fortune 500 companies being led by one. Nav and G thoughtfully break down possible reasons for this, how to shift perception away from being tech-centered, and why we don't know these ballers' names. The last being a perfect advertisement for why you need to listen to the Brown Ballers podcast.
For this week's episode, I choose Survival of the Fitted when JJ Redick joined the boys. A masterpiece of an interview where Joe met his idol JJ Redick and got to clear the air on his fandom. From the ultimate maaaaaaaan to one of the greatest to ever dawn a Blue Devil jersey. This was also an episode where I think Joe showed how great he was at this craft. Duke fashion, NBA career and a lot more to break down with JJ Redick as dawns his presence on one of the funniest podcast episodes to ever grace our network. Duke fashion, NBA career and a lot more to break down. Hope you all enjoy one of my favourite episodes and a legendary discussion.

From Morgan - for this week's TLP submission, I chose Jordan Nixon’s episode on Get With It called “Addressing Mental Health and Turning Pain into Power”. I chose this because I found that what Jordan had to say really hit home for me. As a former athlete, you always hear coaches drill into their players the idea of “Mental Toughness” and the connotation that if you can’t handle the environment your in then you’re mentally “soft”. Young Athletes need to hear, more often, athletes like Jordan talking about how important it is to prioritize your mental health! The stigma surrounding the topic needs to be beaten!

Tidal League team submission from Rohit: The reason I chose this episode is that this was very early in the Tidal League career, and to have such a big name in the NBA come on our show just validated who we are and what we do. I remember the day when I first listened to this episode and I just got to sit back and say "wow, we truly are on to something" and the guests since then have never ceased to surprise me, but this show really was the beginning for me personally.
