Cedric and Kojo immerse themselves in constructive intelligent dialogue on a variety of topics. The 2 former athletes turned business leaders will share their insights, opinions and experiences on a wide range of topics.

The show will be filled with compelling anecdotal narratives, along with statistical analysis, facts and interviews with experts and industry leaders. The theme of this show will always look to enable, empower and activate people from diverse communities, backgrounds and all walks of life to reach their unlimited potential. Helping ordinary people, trying to live extraordinary lives!
DABU (dei·byou) is an acronym as well as verb and noun. Here is a simplistic breaking down of "DABU" acronym.
We will be addressing various topics with the perspective of being:
"D - Diverse" individuals that have experienced
"A - Athletics"at a high level with a successful transition to
"B - Business World". That leads us to the fact that your potential is
“U – Unlimited” if you are willing to put in the work.
That’s the D-A-B-U…DABU!

Leadership Series: Kath McLay - CEO Sam's Club US
As we get into the meat of our second season, we have another heavy hitter guest for all of you today! Kathryn McLay is the Chief Executive Officer at Sam's Club US and is an inspiring leader whose wisdom we cannot wait to share with our listeners. Kath was promoted to this position at the company just before the pandemic hit and we get to hear all about her journey leading up and during this period.
Kath unpacks the strategies and actions that have helped her and the team manage and take advantage of the uncertainty we have all faced before we get into deeper thoughts on leadership, gender, and race. Our guest also talks about her earlier years, time spent at Woolworths in Australia, and the roots of her business and leadership philosophy.
We like to think of Kath as a humble unicorn, someone firmly grounded in bringing authenticity and grace to her role. Listeners can expect to come away from this fantastic conversation with some wonderful insight into the inner workings of a high-level professional and her organization, as well as some inspiring ideas on what it takes to get the most out of a team during tumultuous times.
