In addition to being co-host of the Light Years podcast, Saam is tasked with running Creator Growth at Playback, an interactive sports streamer app. This means that a lot of this millennial’s waking hours are spent on trying to figure out the sports viewership habits of Zoomers.
This is the foundation of our conversation in this pod: What’s up with young people? What programs are they gravitating to and why? And are their habits upending traditional notions of what “mainstream” media even is? But first, true to Bay Area form, we start with expressing our annoyance at the conventional takes of Purdy-hating, “NFL Film Watchers.”
Topics include…
* “Film Watchers” don’t have an edge on the data
* Is NFL Twitter worse for the fake smart takes than NBA Twitter
* How the beat writer has to pretend to not care if the team loses
* Ya, I cared when the Warriors lost
* My regret over my ESPN the Magazine Draymond “hit piece”
* How ESPN cut the Nike loses Steph Curry article from the Magazine
* Will Compton farting at the Washington Post over his Bussin’ with the Boys Trump interview
* Legacy media trying to recap these Trump and Harris Youtube show interviews
* The filming over everything makes athletes more paranoid in the locker room now.
