In his newest venture, Alex Rodriguez will host an interview series on ESPN

Since retiring from baseball in 2016, Alex Rodriguez has had a busy professional life. He has his own investment company, A-Rod Corp, regularly appears on Shark Tank and calls games on Fox and ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball. On Tuesday, ESPN announced that he is adding another venture to his rapidly-growing resume: A four-part special series.
In "Pivot with Alex Rodriguez," A-Rod will host current and former athletes "to lead an unfiltered, dynamic discussion about the changing phenomenon of life in the public eye and to help these athletes share their side of the story regarding their challenges." He is also the producer of the show.
"I know firsthand how challenging it can be to turn the lens inward while living life in the public arena," Rodriguez said in a statement. "I'm looking forward to uncovering personal stories the world deserves to hear, while sharing the lessons I've learned-sometimes through the hard way."
The series will air in the coming weeks on both ESPN and ESPN Deportes. In March, A-Rod was on Saturday Night Live and stressed that athletes should think about their next step.

It sounds like he may have been thinking about his own.
