"Baseball is the background of summer." - Todd Radom

Independent designer and sports visual historian Todd Radom joins Adam on episode 4 to discuss his 20+ year career designing for professional sports brands.

The two touch on the importance of sports brands in a global economy, as well as the lost art of the game program and ticket. What is happening to them in this digital age?

Todd also shares his passion for the visual aesthetics of baseball and why it is so much more prominent amongst mainstreams fans in that sport in relation to other professional sports.
