George Peters created the Industry Game Podcast as a way to bring listeners closer to the people who shape the worlds of business, sports, entertainment, and culture. Each episode features a different guest sharing the path that took them from where they started to where they stand today. The conversations cover the highs, the lows, and the in-between moments that rarely make it into headlines.

Peters draws inspiration from a line by Theodore Roosevelt that has stayed with him over the years. “It is not the critic who counts; the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the Arena.” -Theodore Roosevelt. That sentiment runs through the spirit of the show, which centers on people who are actively building, competing, and creating rather than commenting from the sidelines.

The Story Behind Industry Game

George Peters spends most of his time working alongside his family in their manufacturing business, an industry he grew up in and remains deeply passionate about. Manufacturing has been the foundation of his professional life, and that hands-on experience has shaped how he thinks about business, work, and discipline.

Outside of manufacturing, Peters has also developed an interest in real estate investing and a long-standing passion for business, networking, and meeting people who operate at a high level. His curiosity for how successful people think pulled him toward conversations far outside his own field. Over time, those conversations turned into relationships, and those relationships became the foundation for a podcast.

Industry Game was born out of a simple desire to share what those exchanges had taught him. Rather than keeping the stories in private rooms, Peters wanted to give listeners an inside look at the mindsets, decisions, and turning points that define people doing meaningful work across a range of fields.

Conversations That Cross Industries

The show brings together guests from very different walks of life. Entrepreneurs sit at the same table as professional athletes. Creators and entertainers share space with founders and executives. The diversity of guests is intentional, because Peters believes that the most useful lessons often come from outside one’s own world.

Each conversation is shaped by curiosity rather than a script. Peters asks the questions he genuinely wants the answers to, which gives Industry Game a tone closer to a one-on-one dinner than a formal interview. Guests open up about the work they do, the obstacles they have faced, and the experiences that have changed how they see things.

The show is also a reflection of Peters’ own range of experiences. Over the years, he has been invited to events around the world, from Super Bowl parties and Grammy parties to the Cannes Film Festival. Those gatherings introduced him to athletes, entertainers, founders, executives, and other influential figures, many of whom have since appeared as guests on the podcast.

A Network Built on Genuine Connection

What makes Industry Game different from other interview shows is the foundation it rests on. Peters values relationships that run deep, and he prefers meaningful conversations over surface-level exchanges. Guests on the show are often people George has built genuine relationships and rapport with over years of travel, attending events, and shared interests, not just contacts brought on for a quick promotional appearance. The podcast also serves as a platform to connect with and learn from new guests George looks up to, finds interesting, or genuinely wants to build relationships with across business, entertainment, sports, entrepreneurship, and culture.

For George, the podcast has become a great tool to sit down with people he finds interesting, wants to connect with, and genuinely learn from while continuing to expand his network and relationships across different industries.

Beyond the podcast, Peters continues to invest in personal development, travel, and time with friends and family. Those interests inform the show in subtle ways, shaping the kinds of questions he asks and the kinds of topics that resonate with him.
