CEO Sarah Personette is blunt that she has no interest in becoming an events company, warning that "over-rotating" to events is how media brands lose their identity. Puck runs a limited slate—two premium ticketed summits, insider breakfasts in DC and Hollywood, and partner-driven dinners—but only when they reinforce franchises and margins. The goal is to use convening power strategically, not let it become the business. Sarah joined me to discuss this and other topics, including why podcasting is more about relationships than revenue, how Airmail now brings Puck to over 100,000 paying subscribers.
