    Saban runs to Trump! Will they end NIL Deals?!
    Apr 3 2026
    NIL stands for Name, Image, and Likeness.

    It allows college athletes to earn money through sponsorships, endorsements, and personal branding.

    In this episode of Cash Room Convos, Karim Webb and CJ Mac break down what Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) really means for college athletes—and who’s actually benefiting from it.

    From football programs to major universities, NIL has opened the door for athletes to finally get paid… but is the system truly fair? Or is it just a new version of the same old game?

    We get into:
    • What NIL deals actually are (in plain language)
    • How college athletes are making money today
    • Who controls the money behind the scenes
    • Why some communities are still being left out
    • The bigger play: power, ownership, and long-term wealth Subscribe for weekly conversations breaking down money, power, and politics:

  • California's Governors Race Heats Up!

    California's Governors Race Heats Up!
    Apr 2 2026
    Everybody wants to be governor… but nobody’s coming south of the 10.

    The California governor’s race is getting crowded, especially on the Democratic side. Republicans may actually win if the Democrat don't get strategic.

    On top of all that, communities south of the 10 freeway, some of the most politically and culturally important in California are being overlooked.

    No real presence. No real conversations. No real engagement.
    You can’t lead people you don’t show up for.
