The Road Trippin' Show teams up with Backyard Ventures in partnership with Rain Delay Media
Backyard Ventures announced today that The Road Trippin’ Show has entered into an exclusive partnership with the company, in collaboration with Rain Delay Media. Backyard Ventures will serve as the official representative for premium brand partnerships across the show’s podcast, YouTube, and social platforms, while Rain Delay Media will continue leading production, distribution, and digital strategy for the show.
Hosted by NBA champions Richard Jefferson, Channing Frye, Kendrick Perkins, and Emmy-winning broadcaster Allie Clifton, The Road Trippin’ Show is the longest-running athlete-led podcast in sports. Since launching in 2017, the show has become a trusted voice in basketball media, delivering unfiltered NBA stories and insider perspective.
Current brand partners include Fanatics Sportsbook, SeatGeek, Fabletics, and Huel, reflecting the show’s strong positioning within sports and culture.
“The Road Trippin’ Show has always been about authenticity - real conversations and real chemistry, ” said Matt Cisneros, Founder and CEO of Backyard Ventures. “What Richard, Channing, Kendrick, and Allie have built over nearly a decade is rare. We see a tremendous opportunity to continue elevating the brand through thoughtfully integrated, premium partnerships that match the quality and credibility of the show.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Backyard Ventures and continue building on a record-breaking year with Rain Delay Media, ” said Jordan Harris, Chief Business Officer of The Road Trippin’ Show. “This collaboration allows us to stay focused on delivering authentic content while expanding our reach and impact with brand partners. It’s an exciting next chapter for the show.”
The timing of this exclusive partnership aligns with a major content expansion for the show. With a new Southern California studio and a move to a live, twice-weekly format, The Road Trippin’ Show is providing more touchpoints for fans and brand partners than ever before. The upcoming launch of solo series featuring Kendrick Perkins and Channing Frye further diversifies the show’s portfolio, offering unique, targeted opportunities for premium brand integrations.
“Backyard Ventures has been everything we were looking for in a sales partner for The Road Trippin’ Show, ” said Peter Moses, Co-Founder and CEO of Rain Delay Media. “Ambitious and practical, they’re not just out there beating the pavement on behalf of the show - Backyard shares in the vision, growth, and ambition of the longest-running athlete podcast. ”
