  • Progressively less interesting

    David has great guests but then proceeds to ask them silly questions more akin to People magazine. It’s like he doesn’t prepare for these interviews. Anyways, if that’s your jam, he’s your guy.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Clara Wu Tsai
Q: Do you see a path to owning more teams in the future?
Yes, selectively; live experiences and anti-AI considerations aside, sports remain a valuable asset class with long-term investment potential.
Clara Wu Tsai
Q: How do you balance the visibility of players' political expressions with a diverse community in New York?
We support players' self-expression while fostering an environment for respectful dialogue and open conversation across differing viewpoints.
Clara Wu Tsai
Q: What were the first steps you took to turn the New York Liberty around?
The first step was relocating the team to Barclay Center, followed by investments in health, performance, management, and facilities, plus recruiting top players to build a championship-caliber roster.
Clara Wu Tsai
Q: Did you ever expect growing up in Kansas that you would become a major sports owner?
Absolutely not; it was not envisioned for me to own a team, and the path was shaped by opportunities, curiosity, and a willingness to pursue a broader impact beyond basketball.
Raj Subramaniam
Q: What's the biggest shift you've implemented as CEO compared to the previous leadership?
Consolidating four operating divisions into a unified FedEx network to improve efficiency, scale, and consistency across the global business, while maintaining a people-first culture.
