In episode 12, Brian speaks with a college friend for over 40 years, Heather Mitchell, who played on George Washington's Women's Basketball team while he played on the men's team.

Heather is a trailblazing producer, creative director, and lifelong storyteller whose career has spanned iconic sports networks and international stages.

Heather moved to Fairfield from Bridgeport, Connecticut, at age 11 and later graduated from Roger Ludlowe High School. She went on to attend George Washington University (go Colonials!), where she walked on to the women’s basketball team and eventually became co-captain—an experience that laid the foundation for her future in media and leadership.

Heather began her media journey as an intern at WRC-TV for The George Michael Sports Machine. She eventually landed at Major League Baseball Productions, where she spent 16 years working from logger to senior producer. Highlights of her MLB career include:

• A one-on-one interview with President Bill Clinton
• Producing and editing a Jackie Robinson documentary that premiered at the Apollo Theater
• Serving as Producer/Editor for This Week In Baseball with Mel Allen
• On-location producing and editing for multiple World Series Films

For the past 22 years, Heather has served as a Creative Director at WWE. Her work has taken her around the globe, producing projects in China, Iraq, Rwanda, Australia, and beyond. She directed Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on various locations for the network special Once In A Lifetime and co-directed and edited Women's Evolution, a documentary tracing the powerful history of women in WWE. She also directed WWE Champion Kofi Kingston in the Ghana-based documentary Year of Return.
