Description

Norm Hitzges sits down with billionaire entrepreneur and former Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban for an unfiltered conversation about life after selling the team, walking away from Shark Tank, and why business still feels like the ultimate sport. Cuban opens up about family life, his growing company Cost Plus Drugs, and his view of American politics—spoiler: he’s not a fan of either party.

In classic Norm fashion, the chat flows from heartfelt reflections to sharp insight, with plenty of humor along the way. From fake pharmaceutical studies to pitch emails gone wrong, this is Mark Cuban at his candid best — confident, self-aware, and always one step ahead.
