Episode 6: Kenny Beecham & Mark Titus | “Welcome to the podcast world”

The Long Shot with Duncan Robinson and Davis Reid

It's a double-dose of entertainment this week, as the guys welcome in not one but two guests to the show: YouTube sensation, fellow podcaster, and the content king Kenny Beecham and then author, creator of Club Trillion, and Ohio State Buckeye Mark Titus. To kick things off, Kenny sits down and digs into several topics, including how he broke through the swarm of content creators to make his mark, becoming a voice in the basketball community, his new show “Called Game,” and the weaknesses in NBA 2K. Following that, the hilarious Mark Titus joins the show and let's it all hang out as he breaks down just how the "benchwarmer" narrative began for him, how he was discovered by Bill Simmons, his viral tweet about Duncan that took the media by storm, his hoop skills, and much more. It's a packed house this week, so take a seat and enjoy.
