The Playbook With David Meltzer

In today’s episode, I sit down with Larry Namer, the visionary behind E! Entertainment, to explore the ever-evolving landscape of media and technology. Larry shares his journey from the early days of cable television to the rise of social media, emphasizing the importance of passionate niches and the need to connect deeply with audiences. He discusses how MTV’s simplicity inspired his own ventures and the challenges of starting a network with just 11 employees and 31 interns. Larry also offers insights into staying ahead by embracing new technologies like AI and blockchain while maintaining a commitment to meaningful, socially responsible content.
