“I still can’t believe it, and I was one of three people that was asked to be a guest for Twitter Spaces, right? So these two other ladies and I are going to be permanent guests. Like we were reached out to from Twitter, they were like, can you be a permanent guest for us. I signed a contract with Twitter & Twitter Spaces to do a series of Spaces talking about growing community and doing different things. That led to one of the other girls being on and talking about some of the things that she does with ‘The White House,’ and she asked me to be on. It’s crazy; I’m chopping it up about college basketball for one minute. The next minute, I’m legit in the space with thousands of people talking to ‘The White House’ about NFT policies.”
Payne host numerous Spaces, such as one where he allows prospects to pitch themselves to coaches around the country and allows them to get scholarships. He also hosts a space called Hoop Therapy, which is not recorded, and people can go in there to tell their stories. These spaces are weekly on Wednesday and Thursday.
