  • The company has already released a documentary on the Bucks superstar, and is working on a heist movie and a cooking show.
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports

Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo has a new production company with aspirations beyond the athlete stories one expects to see from similar ventures. After releasing a documentary about Giannis himself, the company is working on a heist movie set in Greece and a cooking show, among other projects. Jonathan Stern, the CEO of the company, Improbable Media, joins the pod to talk about the vision for Improbable Media and why more and more sports media is athlete-driven.

Plus, there is unrest at the MLBPA, Shohei Ohtani now has his own logo, and a new NIL deal offers every woman in March Madness $500.
