This is episode 2 of Behind The Pod. I flew out to Utah with my crew to spend a day with Ryan Smith. Ryan built a $10 billion company from his dad’s basement, bought an NBA team, and now he’s building his own city from scratch.
What’s interesting about Ryan is that he’s living every kid’s dream. I wanted to see what that really looked like. We woke up at 6am to meet his his secret basketball run, got the behind the scenes tour and, of course, recorded a podcast.
