Sean Maddison does not understand the term "offseason." He's the leader producer for the San Jose Sharks television broadcasts on NBC Sports Bay Area. Then after the grind of a grueling season, Maddison makes documentaries. Not simple easy documentaries, but emotional stories about the intersection of sports and society.In episode 10 of the "Life Around the Seams" podcast, we find out why Sean Maddison won't just rest and enjoy the offseason. He's produced over 10 documentaries, but we'll focus on three: OUT, the Glenn Burke Story; TOMBOY, elevating the conversation about gender in sports; and LETTERS TO 87, a tribute the late 49ers legend Dwight Clark.
We also discussed why he moved to New York when his producing career was just getting established in the SF Bay Area, producing VH1's "50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs" and how that experience shapes his work to this day.
