Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Brett Johnson [#87] - Why the USL Could Offer a Strategic Opportunity for MCOs
Q: What are your thoughts on the MCO model and its role in US sport development?
I'm bullish on MCOs and expect the trend to accelerate as global clubs expand their portfolios. A US club with a strong stadium and location is a logical extension, and the promotion/relegation framework in USL will help develop talent and create meaningful competitive pressure, driving long-term value for investors.
Brett Johnson [#87] - Why the USL Could Offer a Strategic Opportunity for MCOs
Q: At a high level, how do you structure asset ownership across teams and real estate developments?
Rhode Island FC, Ipswich Town, and related stadium and real estate ventures are kept structurally distinct, but I pursue synergies across them. Investors in the football club also invest in the stadium, ensuring aligned interests and shared upside, while allowing flexibility to optimize each asset separately. Partnerships with pension funds and families are used to scale capital and governance.
Chris Sice [#85]: How ICONS Series' is Approaching Content ⛳️
Q: How important is the role of the players in shaping the content?
Players aren't just participants; they are content engines whose charisma and passion for golf drive authentic storytelling, with the talent team ensuring content aligns with what excites them and their audiences.
Chris Sice [#85]: How ICONS Series' is Approaching Content ⛳️
Q: What makes ICONS Series disruptive in the golf space?
The format blends four days of golf with two sessions in a compact, two-day structure, adds a match-play twist with double-point holes, and incorporates voting-driven audience participation and pro-captain support to deepen engagement.
Mark Shannon [#86]: How the DP World Tour is Navigating the Future of Digital Products 📱
Q: What sparked your move from consultancy to a product-focused leadership role in golf?
Mark explains a gradual pivot driven by passion for golf and a desire to shape fan experiences through technology, aided by a digital project role that evolved into leading digital product initiatives.
