This week, hosts Kyle Bunch and Don Povia are joined by Lang Whitaker, an author, host, and editor who now serves as GM of Grizz Gaming and contributes with Grind City Media with the Memphis Grizzlies. Lang talks about forgoing college to pursue a professional career when the opportunity arose; how maintaining connections and hustle lead to a spot at SLAM, launching their digital platform, and the creative freedom that came with the opportunity; transitioning from that culture-based environment to more structured ones like GQ and NBA.com; and how he’s made the leap to esports in Memphis, working with a team and applying lessons learned throughout his career; and more.
