Today's guest is our producer and editor. He has a silky smooth jump shot and a dry sense of humor. He is a huge Lakers fan, which is evident by the fact he only has one hat as his piece of merch to show off his fandom. He's helped the pod in so many ways and I'm forever grateful to him. Please welcome... Gabriel Granillo.

In this episode, I talk with Gabriel about growing up watching the Lakers and how a sports journalism class in college got him back into basketball. We also talk about the future of the The GoldenPod and what listeners can expect moving forward. Then we cap things off with a freshly tailored START, BENCH, CUT: Lakers Jerseys Edition!

Today's guest is the owner and chef at Dinger's Deli in Portland, Oregon. He's the type of guy that calls out a screen he's setting so that he doesn't hurt anyone. I'm thrilled to welcome...Brian Steadham!

In this episode we talk about Brian's varied NBA upbringing, which introduced him to the likes of the Seattle Supersonics, the New York Knicks, and the Portland Trailblazers. We also talk about his vegan sandwich shop in Portland called Dinger's Deli, as well as possible locations for an NBA expansion team.

Today’s guest is an awesome tattoo artist with a laid-back attitude and a great sense of humor. He doesn't take himself too seriously but he's seriously a great guy. He’s the co-owner of I Heart Tattoo in Portland, Oregon. The one, the only...Austin Fillmore!

Today's guest is someone with great insight into the NBA and the production value that we as fans experience. He's masterful at his craft, yet modest and approachable. He's the studio producer for the Portland Trailblazers broadcast team. Here is episode 5 with Kyle Ratoza!

I recorded episode 4 with today’s guest, Ian and although the content is great, the audio didn’t come out well. I strongly suggest still listening to that episode, but we have recorded another episode together to give you the experience you deserve. Here is episode 4.1 with the man behind our logo, Ian Vanderhill.
