  • From $90 A Week Underground To Co-Founding E! Entertainment | Larry Namer

    From $90 A Week Underground To Co-Founding E! Entertainment | Larry Namer
    Oct 9 2026
    Larry Namer is the Co-founder of E! Entertainment. He started his career splicing cable wires under the streets of Manhattan for $90 a week. A few years later he cofounded E! Entertainment.

    Everyone told him and his partner Alan Mruvka that regular people don't start TV networks. You had to be Disney or Fox. They heard no around 157 times.

    The going rate to launch a network back then was $60 to $100 million. After three and a half years, they got $2.5 million.That wasn't enough to buy real cameras, so they bought used sales training gear, hired 11 employees and 31 interns, and climbed the fence at the Academy Awards when they got denied press credentials. Three years later they had 1,100 employees. Today E! Entertainment is in 142 countries.

    What we covered:
    → How E! Entertainment launched on a fraction of what every other network spent
    → Climbing the Oscars fence and asking Tom Cruise about his shoes
    → Putting cameras in Howard Stern's radio studio while everyone laughed
    → The television.com failure where more viewers meant bigger losses
    → Why Larry is betting vertical video becomes the main way we watch by 2030

    Larry didn't know the rules, so breaking them never slowed him down. A lot of what E! Entertainment became started right there.

    If this episode got you thinking about where TV is headed, Larry wrote the whole thing down. His new book, Two Minute Television: The Future of Television Fits in Your Pocket, lays out why he's betting vertical video will become the main way we watch by 2030.

    Larry, thank you for taking the time to do this.

  • What Would It Take For You To Walk Away From A 6-Digit Career? | Marco Savone

    What Would It Take For You To Walk Away From A 6-Digit Career? | Marco Savone
    Oct 2 2026
    Marco Savone co-founded Scusa Media, a revenue agency helping home service and construction companies turn leads into closed jobs. Before any of that, he spent two years working with stage four cancer patients at the University of Michigan Cancer Hospital.

    He got into two medical schools after failing the MCAT twice. At the same time, his uncle's small liquor brand was starting to take off, and Marco had to pick one. He walked away from medical school. Years later, he turned down a six figure pharmaceutical sales job too, choosing the harder, less certain path both times.

    He bet on himself instead. He learned to sell the way a doctor treats a patient. Diagnose first, then prescribe. That mindset built Scusa Media into an agency getting contractors real, qualified leads and the systems to close them. One client landed 115 qualified leads in three months and got so busy they had to turn work down.

    What we covered:
    → Why Marco walked away from medical school and a six figure pharma job
    → The "selling like a doctor" framework that changed how he closes deals
    → How Scusa Media generates and converts leads for contractors
    → Why he believes we're moving from an attention economy to a trust economy
    → Building the 1% Event and bringing free, high level events back to Detroit

    Entrepreneurship is personal development wearing a business suit. Every fork in the road Marco talks about here came down to betting on himself before he had any proof it would work.

    Thanks to Marco for making the time and for being so open about every version of the plan that didn't survive contact with real life.

  • Why Nights and Weekends Aren't the Price of Success | Craig Ceccanti

    Why Nights and Weekends Aren't the Price of Success | Craig Ceccanti
    Sep 25 2026
    Craig Ceccanti built Pinot's Palette from one location in 2009 to 150 across the country, then exited the business in 2020. Now he installs the same operating system in other people's companies.
    For years he ran things by working harder than everyone else. He calls it "Craig OS." He held every title, head of tech, head of marketing, head of finance, and the business hit a ceiling because of it. It took a friend handing him the book Traction, and two years of actually running the system, before he'd admit the mess he'd built.

    Nine months into installing EOS, he watched his own company outperform the version he used to run himself, and he got his nights and weekends back with his twin daughters. Now he's an EOS implementer, one year in, still learning what he calls his own second job. Coaching founders through the same ego he had to let go of first.

    What we covered:
    → Why the founder becomes the bottleneck, and how to see it before your team does
    → Vision, traction, and health, the three things every EOS company runs on
    → Why buying an old, boring business beats starting a flashy new one
    → Asset sales, earn outs, and the deal terms that actually protect you
    → What private equity firms are quietly rewarding when they buy a company

    The founders who get furthest are the ones willing to admit they're the problem before somebody has to tell them.

    Craig, thank you for making the time and handing us this much value in under an hour.
