Speaker 1: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States
Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
Speaker 1: are here illegally, your next you will be fined nearly
Speaker 1: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will
Speaker 1: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
Speaker 1: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
Speaker 1: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,
Speaker 1: border and families will be protected.
Speaker 2: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
Speaker 3: I want to shift a little bit because we live
Speaker 3: in the world. Like you said, we can shape our narrative.
Speaker 3: We can control some of the media that we put out.
Speaker 3: I know you have a production company, Yeah, and we
Speaker 3: live in the world where content is king. And you
Speaker 3: did something very legendary, dow one thing most people even
Speaker 3: know about when you started acquiring content during the so
Speaker 3: called Brightest strike that you know, we just came out of.
Speaker 4: Can you talk about the legendary move that you made.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so so Doctor King and I and I love
Speaker 5: my sister to death because she we we ride together
Speaker 5: on all these deals and kind of like, how y'all
Speaker 5: do it? You know, y'all show up the tag team.
Speaker 5: And so Doctor King and I went and bought uh
Speaker 5: P three Media. And P three Media is another we
Speaker 5: own brand. You know, we take black investor dollars and
Speaker 5: we go buy a white production company.
Speaker 6: We stay on brand. This particular brand was there, you
Speaker 6: go so.
Speaker 5: Right, So we went and bought it because one we realized,
Speaker 5: I mean, what are you really buying?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 5: You want to buy the privilege, the access that comes
Speaker 5: in Hollywood for those companies that we don't normally have.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 5: So, this was a company that had the number one
Speaker 5: show on Netflix the year before. This is a company
Speaker 5: that created the show Suits, which you know, Suits is
Speaker 5: not what the most streams show in the history of
Speaker 5: streaming at this point, So you know, Gene Klein, who
Speaker 5: created Suits, is now our content director. So we went
Speaker 5: and bought the best of the best team to say,
Speaker 5: all right, we need a vehicle by which we can
Speaker 5: promote the stories of our community and get the access.
Speaker 6: And the key for us was.
Speaker 5: This company was being incubated inside of Disney. So what
Speaker 5: it did for us immediately is when you acquired this company,
Speaker 5: now we got real estate inside of Disney on Burbank
Speaker 5: in LA right there next to Marvel, across the hall
Speaker 5: from Pixar.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: So that is the access we wanted to create so
Speaker 5: that we can get past where we think Hollywood is broken.
Speaker 6: Hollywoods broken right now, if you're a content.
Speaker 5: Creator and you've got the greatest idea of the greatest story,
Speaker 5: by the time you get in front of the right people,
Speaker 5: somebody and some middleman, some agent has Nicolin dimes, you
Speaker 5: do we only probably got five or ten percent left
Speaker 5: of your IP because you had to give away everything
Speaker 5: just to get in front of somebody. Right, we're cutting
Speaker 5: through all of that. We have access directly to the buyers.
Speaker 5: Disney has a first look, so Disney gets to take
Speaker 5: a look at it. So if your content comes to us,
Speaker 5: we can get it to Disney. First, Netflix is on deck,
Speaker 5: Second HBO Showtime. We cut out all the middle people
Speaker 5: and just bring us to content so we can preserve
Speaker 5: those economics to make it so black creatives can create
Speaker 5: more wealth without having to go through all the middle people.
Speaker 4: Can I just do a follow up real quick?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Just do so your acquire suits, right, you guys own it.
Speaker 3: This is a show that was on from two thousand
Speaker 3: and nine to I believe twenty nineteen. As you start
Speaker 3: to see it climb in its viewership, what do you like?
Speaker 3: What's the how do you guys feeling as you're seeing
Speaker 3: this happen?
Speaker 6: Well, you know, it was funny.
Speaker 5: I talked to Gen gen Klin, who works as Gen
Speaker 5: Now we're having this conversation in Miami a couple of
Speaker 5: weeks ago. And you know, for the people that created
Speaker 5: it originally, they thought it was iconic then, and I
Speaker 5: think now the big shock is people don't even know
Speaker 5: how old this show is.
Speaker 6: People watch it on Netflix and.
Speaker 5: The only reason people start figuring out how old it
Speaker 5: is when they pull out the blackberries.
Speaker 6: They're like, oh damn, what does a BlackBerry? You know?
Speaker 5: Until you see don't use a cell phone from two
Speaker 5: thousand and seven. You know, people don't know, so it's
Speaker 5: been exciting. It's been great for us because you know,
Speaker 5: we're able to tell people. Look, the talent they created,
Speaker 5: this iconic show is right here and now they're at
Speaker 5: you know, a company with black leadership and the world
Speaker 5: is wide open right now. Man, like we sent. I
Speaker 5: tell content creators all the time if you have good ideas,
Speaker 5: we're doing really good.
Speaker 3: This episode is brought to you by P and C Bank.
Speaker 3: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,
Speaker 3: and sure they definitely can be, but understanding of professionals
Speaker 3: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,
Speaker 3: day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank.
Speaker 3: It might seem boring to safe plan and calculated decisions

Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christine nom the United States
Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens.
Speaker 5: Have been arrested.
Speaker 1: If you are here illegally, your next you will be

Speaker 1: You will never return. But if you register using our
Speaker 1: CBP home app and leave now, you could be allowed
Speaker 1: to return legally. Do what's right. Leave now. Under President
Speaker 1: Trump America's laws, border and families will be protected.
Speaker 2: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
Speaker 6: Great right now.
Speaker 5: If you look at the because of the strike, we've
Speaker 5: also leaned in there. We always take a chaos and
Speaker 5: create an opportunity. Because of the strike, there's no new content,
Speaker 5: so we've really dug into getting great stories that we
Speaker 5: can turn into docu saries and I'm gonna put one
Speaker 5: on here at EYL that y'all can check out, so
Speaker 5: y'all get to hear it here first, even though we
Speaker 5: got a Vanity Fair article coming out on the next
Speaker 5: couple weeks.
Speaker 6: We just finished.
Speaker 5: We just finished the first unscripted television show filmed at
Speaker 5: the White House around the release of American hostages around
Speaker 5: the world, and most of them are people of color.
Speaker 6: So we took you take.
Speaker 5: What happened with Brittany Grinder, and you say, you know,
Speaker 5: for the people that wanted Brittany out, you didn't understand
Speaker 5: why it was taking so long. You didn't understand why
Speaker 5: people were meeting with her spouse. And then when she
Speaker 5: did get out, the other side was like, oh, you
Speaker 5: did too much. You traded her for Satan. Now it's
Speaker 5: all that and so that whole dynamic we felt the
Speaker 5: American people needed to understand. So we just finished the
Speaker 5: show called The Return that's going to come out this winner,
Speaker 5: where we go into the Venezuelan prisons to record behind
Speaker 5: the scenes, to record at the White House, behind the scenes,
Speaker 5: to record their families, behind the scenes, to see the
Speaker 5: release of people of color from foreign prisons that people
Speaker 5: don't know about. This is the power of telling a
Speaker 5: narrative because there's black and brown people in foreign prisons
Speaker 5: right now who never bounce the ball, who have no
Speaker 5: fame or notoriety, that the world needs to know about
Speaker 5: because their freedom is it should be just as paramount
Speaker 5: as anybody else. These are the stories that I think
Speaker 5: doctor King and I know need to be told, and
Speaker 5: we think it can have a profound impact on the
Speaker 5: conversation around black lives in a holistic sense, because you know,
Speaker 5: who's worthy of coming home is a serious conversation, and
Speaker 5: I think the American people need to understand what goes
Speaker 5: into that.
Speaker 7: In the media space, we've seen a dramatic fall of
Speaker 7: Netflix last year. Spotify is going through issues. Podcasts are
Speaker 7: in trouble, Disney's in trouble. What's broken in American media?
Speaker 7: From a business model perspective, I'm interested to hear it.
Speaker 7: Hear Take Suits is one of my favorite shows all time.
Speaker 7: But what do you see in a business model that's
Speaker 7: broken that you feel you can fix And what's your
Speaker 7: outlook on media companies in the publicly trading market, like
Speaker 7: over the next five or six years.
Speaker 5: You know, in my mind, man, we're looking at the
Speaker 5: negotiated death of Cable. That's what you really are seeing.
Speaker 5: They're negotiating the end of Cable because at the end
Speaker 5: of the day, these streaming services, obviously Netflix is.
Speaker 6: Okay, but the rest of them are second win.
Speaker 5: And when they're negotiating with actors and they're negotiating with writers,
Speaker 5: and they know that they want a percentage of the revenue.
Speaker 5: As an impossible conversation if you're not making money to
Speaker 5: share with somebody a negative, right, But the problem is,
Speaker 5: if you're Disney, theoretically, why do you want people to
Speaker 5: have to go through Charter, are At and T to
Speaker 5: get to you when you can sell your apps straight up.
Speaker 5: So right now, and you saw this happen in the Midwest,
Speaker 5: Disney jumped off of Charter. They jumped off for two
Speaker 5: months just to prove a point, and so Charter took
Speaker 5: off ABC, Disney off of all of its platforms. The
Speaker 5: point is for streaming to make money, they're going to
Speaker 5: have to get the middleman out of the way, and
Speaker 5: that's Cable. So what you're seeing right now is the
Speaker 5: negotiated death of Cable, so that Cable will go back
Speaker 5: to doing what they're originally we're doing, which is provide
Speaker 5: a phone service or internet service, but get cable out
Speaker 5: of the content industry. So if you're looking at you know,
Speaker 5: I thought it's on publicly traded companies, the cable's going
Speaker 5: to take to hit the O.
Speaker 6: These companies are going to bounce back. But if you're.
Speaker 5: Looking at the internet services that have been making money
Speaker 5: off of cable, old school, that day is coming to
Speaker 5: an end quickly.
