One of Barstool Sports’ most recognized and beloved personalities is leaving to begin his own production company.
According to a report from Caitlin Huston of The Hollywood Reporter, Barstool Sports “Sundae Conversations” host Caleb Pressley is taking his show and leaving to start a production company. The 32-year-old will get a significant boost off the bat, as he’ll work with Tom Brady’s Shadow Lion agency.
The former North Carolina Tar Heels walk-on quarterback joined Dave Portnoy’s company after graduating in 2015. After hosting several other podcasts/programs, Pressley began hosting “Sundae Conversations” in 2021.
More from Huston:
“Starting this month, Pressley will produce and distribute all of his content, including Sundae Conversation, through his newly launched company Bill Joe Productions. Pressley will partner with Tom Brady’s creative agency, Shadow Lion, on sales and talent production for Sundae Conversation.
The two will also work together on a sports series in collaboration with Underdog Fantasy.”
A former high school star athlete, the long-tenured Barstool Sports employee attended UNC from 2010 to 2013. He saw some action in the Tar Heels’ 66-0 victory over Idaho on Sept. 29, rushing the ball twice in the contest.
Pressley left UNC to attend the University of Edinburgh overseas in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was subsequently added to the Tar Heels’ football coaching staff, holding a position called “Supervisor of Morale.”
Another Notable Talent Departs From Barstool Sports
Like any major sports media company/website/network, Barstool Sports has seen several notable talents depart over the last couple of years. Just last January, longtime CEO Erika Ayers Badan resigned and became the new CEO of Food52.
Amid rumors of tension with her Barstool colleagues, “Plan Bri Uncut” co-host Grace O’Malley left the company in December. Now, Portnoy and company have a giant void to fill with Pressley deciding to take his talents elsewhere.

The Baltimore Ravens have announced that Zay Flowers will not be with them when they play the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs this Saturday.
The wide receiver is set to miss his first NFL game because of an injury after hurting his knee in Baltimore’s division-clinching victory over the Cleveland Browns last week.
“Zay Flowers is not going to be able to make it to the game this week,” Ravens head coach Harbaugh said on Thursday, per NFL.com. “So he’ll get started again next week and we’ll move forward with the guys we have and we’re excited about the guys we have, which is everybody else.
The second-year star made 74 receptions for 1,059 yards and four touchdowns during the season.
Rashod Bateman will step in as the main wide receiver option for Baltimore this weekend. Bateman had a career year in which he made 45 catches for 756 yards and nine scores. Only tight end Mark Andrews had more TDs this term.
