ESPN football analyst and Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III is getting into the podcast space.
RGIII announced that his new show, RG3 and The Ones, will debut on September 21. He has partnered with Wave Sports + Entertainment and Whispering Oaks Productions to produce and distribute the podcast. WSE is the company behind New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce and Podcast P with Paul George.
Griffin said the show will have new episodes roll out weekly.
“Every week, there are new stories in sports that deserve to be celebrated, championed, and clarified on a platform that puts athletes and their truth first,” said Griffin in a statement. “RG3 and The Ones is for anyone who isn’t interested in the thirty-second sound bites or untrue narratives but wants to dive deeper into the stories that make our favorite athletes our favorite humans.”
“Robert, the media personality, has become a household name across the internet, social media, and the big screen, mirroring his meteoric rise on the field as a Heisman Trophy winner, top pick, and NFL star,” Wave Sports + Entertainment founder and CEO Brian Verne said. “He is the perfect person to quarterback this show for us as we look to put up more big wins across the WSE Originals slate.”
