When it comes to sports in Seattle, very few people have had an overall impact that compares to Tod Leiweke. Jon and Tod dropped the metaphorical puck at the Kraken Community Iceplex to talk about Seattle’s NHL team; how Tod’s upbringing shaped his approach to leadership; Tod’s favorite sports memories; his connection with Pete Carroll; the return of the NBA to Seattle; the plans for Memorial Stadium and more. Join us for Seattle City Makers with Jon Scholes and guest Tod Leiweke.
