Heed the Call expands partnership
Underdog Sports, “the best place to play fantasy sports including Pick‘em, Best Ball, and Daily Drafts”, and Backyard Ventures, a leader in sales representation for creators across podcasts, YouTube, social, and newsletters. The two companies are coming together once again to work on Dan Hanzus and Marc Sessler’s new show “Heed the Call”. Underdog Sports will produce the show, while Backyard Ventures will handle ad sales support.
Heed the Call is a new podcast with familiar faces. They say that “Heroes never die — they just change platforms.” This new show will take a deep dive into the NFL where the hosts will cover every game and storyline while having fun along the way. Dan, Marc, and occasional special guests are giving their audience exclusive information that you won’t be able to hear anywhere else.
Backyard Ventures and Underdog Sports have been continually expanding their partnership adding new shows to their client roster. Their past success with shows like Gil’s Arena, The Underdog Football Show, and Third Time’s the Charm prove that this is a partnership that works and creates lasting results. Both companies are excited to add “Heed the Call” to the list of shows they work on together.
Tim Livingston, VP of Content with Underdog said: “Having Backyard Ventures as our podcast partner for ‘Heed the Call’ and all shows on Underdog Content Network has been very rewarding. The whole BV team understands sports podcasting, the importance of cultivating and maintaining an engaged audience, and the future of the medium more broadly.”
Matt Cisneros, Founder and CEO of Backyard Ventures said, “We’re excited to once again be expanding our partnership with Underdog Fantasy on ‘Heed the Call’. We’ve had such a successful partnership with the Underdog Fantasy team and look forward to continued success together as we both grow.”
