Nuthouse Sports (formerly Coast Productions) is an American sports entertainment company founded by former New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman and Assaf Swissa. It produced the 2019 Showtime documentary 100% and produces the podcasts Games with Names and Dudes on Dudes with Gronk and Jules, the latter co-hosted by Edelman and Rob Gronkowski.[1][2]
History
[edit]Edelman and Swissa launched Coast Productions, a Boston-based company, in June 2019 alongside the Showtime premiere of 100%.[2][3] Before the launch, the pair had made comedic YouTube videos featuring Edelman, including "Burger Tyme" and "Smoothie Tyme".[3]

In October 2024, Coast Productions was renamed Nuthouse Sports. The company was spun out of Superdigital, the creative agency founded by Swissa.
