    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    On this episode of The Pitch, Andy, Drew, and Dom discuss using touring sports weekends to add fan-facing “shoulder programming” and new commercial inventory, sparked by MotoGP’s San Marino GP partnering with FIBA 3x3 for a free Thursday street-court event featuring riders as team captains. They explore how F1 and Liberty Media could replicate this by inviting challenger sports (padel, flag football, virtual golf) or creating owned IP (e.g., an “Apex” run club tied to the F1 movie) to drive spon

    Read excerpt

    On this episode of The Pitch, Andy and Drew welcome new co-host Dom, who arrives with a big opening pitch focused on an “honors system” for fans, built like a Hall of Fame for the people who actually create sports culture on the ground.

That pitch opens into a wider co
