Episode 109: Jamie Munson

Seattle sports fans likely know Simply Seattle as the go-to spot for shirts, jerseys, hats and some of the city’s most iconic apparel. But owner Jamie Munson’s story is also one of entrepreneurship, brand building and betting on Seattle’s sports culture. Jon and Jamie talk about Jamie’s path from general manager to owner of Simply Seattle; the growth of the business since purchasing it in 2015; the impact of the Mariners and Seahawks post-season runs; the lasting passion for the Sonics and what renewed NBA expansion buzz means for Seattle; and Jamie’s newest venture, Out West Trading Company, with locations across the Northwest and another opening soon in Suncadia. Join us for Seattle City Makers with Jon Scholes and guest Jamie Munson.

Episode 108: Kevin Martinez

Kevin Martinez grew up in a baseball-loving family in New Jersey, and the love of the game propelled him to a career in the big leagues. An opportunity with the Seattle Mariners sent him across the country in his early 20s, and after a brief stint back east, a love of Seattle and its MLB franchise lured him back. After spending decades directing marketing with the Mariners, he became president of business operations in 2025. Jon and Kevin talk about how going to a Yankees game led him to Seattle; his experiences with Ken Griffey Jr., Ichiro and others; the excitement for the 2026 season after last year’s post-season run; how technology is changing the game; the Mariners position in the community; how the team handled the Ichiro statue reveal and much more. Join us for Seattle City Makers with Jon Scholes and guest Kevin Martinez. This episode is sponsored by MCNW Advisory Partners and DSA members Matt Van Beek and Chris Jay. Join them as they host their inaugural Seattle Summer Soirée on June 4. Request access here: https://partiful.com/e/C7TNvm4KLOL4w0HnllFi
