11. Warner Bros. Discovery and legacy baggage, career advice, and the monumental importance of putting things in writing
06/27/22 • 48 min
Building on their streaming discussion, this is amazing: CABLE CHANNELS are now considered LEGACY BAGGAGE....in some ways more than the three networks. We are watching an entire platform, possibly two in cable and network channels, vanish before our eyes!
Also, a great exploration of the contrasts in expectations for success that Jeff and Alan were brought up in.
And the extraordinary value of writing something down.

10. Innovating Baseball Broadcasts, Cataloging Streaming Services, & Some Career Advice
This week Jeff and Alan discuss streaming services and ask the pointed questions: why is it so hard to find the content you're looking for and why can't we stream EVERYTHING? There is still nothing near a comprehensive streaming curation service — 5 years into the age of streaming and we still have no TV Guide, no way to set appointment TV, no public facing way to tell what’s good or what’s popular!!! The answer as to why is dark and cynical —but is also an opportunity that no entrepreneur has leveraged.
In addition, they also follow up on the conversation they had with Mike Sargent and share some thoughts on success and how to find and engage with a mentor.
