Lily Shimbashi, creator of Sportsish and ESPN’s newest content creator, joins Front Office Sports on Radio Row to explain how creators are reshaping sports media — and why storytelling matters more than ever.

In this interview, Lily breaks down:

  • Why she built Sportsish as “not your boyfriend’s sports news”
  • How ESPN is partnering with creators to reach younger and female audiences
  • Why Taylor Swift changed NFL fandom forever
  • How the Super Bowl became America’s biggest cultural event
  • What creators understand about sports storytelling that traditional media missed
  • As sports leagues chase new fans, creators like Lily are becoming the future of sports coverage.

 

Matt Iseman takes viewers beyond the scoreboard, inside the deals, and face-to-face with the personalities shaping sports.
