Tipping The Scales: Real-life perspective - Draymond Green & Jordan Poole
Tidal League
This one is relevant to my industry. It's a common topic of talk amongst all sport enthusiasts and leagues. Fighting is something that happens often, it builds hype and gives onlookers a chance to critique. I wanted to hear what Tee and Shea thought, their perspective and how honest and risky they would be with the topic. Tee's views were honest - she spoke on it from a mothers viewpoint and businesswoman viewpoint. Great convo - truthful and honest.

WSLAM - Addressing Mental Health and Turning Pain into Power
Tidal League
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...

Phil Handy the Champ and NBA coach who trains the best in the game.
Tidal League
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.
info_outlineWhen Tidal League hosted an episode of the podcast “Inside the Green Room” in Halifax in 2018 it was then Toronto Raptor Danny Green’s first welcome to Canada. As the show celebrates year 2 we are joined from L.A. by Executive Producer Amjed Osman, who talks about the show, the story behind it, how he and Danny met, the start of the podcast, how it has grown and how he grasped the opportunities that came his way and made their vision a reality.
Amjed shares his thoughts about how the collision of COVID and the Black Lives Movement has resulted in a perfect storm for making change and how he’s using his voice to make a difference, inspiring the next generation and empowering youth by equipping them with the skills to succeed.
Amjed talks about the restart of the NBA season and while he’s excited to have basketball back, not wanting it to take away from the Black Lives Matters movement and how to use this opportunity with everyone bubbled in Orlando to bring people together and to ensure these important issues continue to remain front and centre.
We also touch on the death of Kobe Bryant and the legacy he’s left behind, and what it’s meant to him and the world, to lose such an icon. Lots of great listening so tune in to not miss a moment!
