Official Preview: Ready for launch!

This short episode introduces Courtside, a basketball podcast built around real conversations and real perspective from inside the game. Host Marc Israel is known for his fandom, sitting courtside at Houston Rockets games. He's bringing that same energy and love of the game to this podcast.

Courtside isn’t about headlines or hot takes. It’s about context — the people who play, coach, cover, and shape the sport, and the stories that don’t always make it into a broadcast or box score.

In this teaser, we outline what the show is, why it exists, and what listeners can expect going forward. This episode is also part of setting up the workflow and feed ahead of the full launch.

Full episodes coming soon.

Thanks for being early.
