In Part 1 of Meet the Hosts, Nippy, Kyle and Chris sit down to talk about their shared history and how Spinning It got started.
Nippy and Kyle played together as quarterbacks for Brown University and reconnected later in life following Nippy’s role in the HBO documentary, The Vow. A little while later, Kyle introduced Nippy to Chris in an effort to get him involved at Quarterback Universe, where Kyle and Chris worked together. Over time, the three friends began planning and forming the concept behind Spinning It.
This episode explores both Nippy’s experience as a former member of the NXIVM cult and being a college athlete. The life lessons he learned from football: dealing with adversity, protecting your team, and confronting the highs and lows of each day gave him the tools he needed to exit the organization. He also played an instrumental leadership role in taking down the cult’s founder and other key NXIVM members.
