Media and the Machine

AI is the biggest technology shift of our lifetime. This show is about how to profit from it together.

Each week I talk with the founders and CEOs closest to AI and Content, the ones figuring this out in real time.

I’m also building an AI content business myself and share the lessons I learn along the way.

WHAT WE COVER

The Titans -- How companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and xAI are moving, and why their decisions matter.

The Incumbents -- How content giants like Disney, News Corp, Universal Music Group, and Reddit are responding to AI, and what it means for creators and publishers.

The Playbook -- Real lessons on AI business models, content strategy, creativity, IP licensing, distribution, and getting paid.

Family & Our Future -- Every episode ends with me asking my guest what AI means for our jobs, our families, and the next generation.
