Host, "Nothing Personal with David Samson". - 2019-present>1. It's been an interesting road for you to arrive at doing a podcast and regular radio appearances, through law school, entrepreneurship, investment banking, and baseball. Was getting in front of people as a host/entertainer always something you wanted to do, or did it just evolve that way? What was your career plan from the start, and was what you do now part of that vision?

I have had and continue to have an interesting, lucky, fun career and the key is that I have never planned my next step. I just remained open to different opportunities.
