Goat Talk Sports
Goat Talk isn’t your average sports podcast. Your host, James Chapman, is currently a finance and marketing major at Mississippi State. Despite looking like he is in the pipeline for the finance world, he’s a lifelong sports fan with big ambitions to work in the sports business and media world. Goat Talk brings a fresh, next-gen perspective to the games, stories, and moments that matter. Expect sharp analysis, bold takes, and real conversations, where passion for the game meets a drive to shape its future. Here on Goat Talk, we are also followers of Jesus Christ. We recognize the importance of our faiths and look to incorporate it into sports.

Meet Your Hosts
I am one of your co-hosts, Luke Pine. I grew up in Houston, but now I am studying Business with a minor in Sports Business and Analytics at the University of Texas at Austin. I am a die hard H-Town (Houston) and Longhorn fan. At the same time, I am a believer and follower Jesus Christ, and my faith is my #1 priority.
Meet Your Hosts
I’m James your other co-host. Being from Mississippi, we have zero pro sports teams, so mine are spread out. Ranging from the Vegas Golden Knights out west, to the Cowboys and Astros in Texas, and finally in the east with the Atlanta Hawks, I’m a ride or die fan from sea to shining sea. I’m attending Mississippi State University pursuing a double major in Finance and Marketing while forming new connections and growing my faith in Christ.
