Show Notes
Daman has two public roles: Helping out Ben Thompson with Thompson’s world-beating tech newsletter, Stratechery, and troll-fully supporting the Lakers on Twitter. He’s a brilliant guy, with a mind trained for optimization, so I hit him up when I have business questions. This discussion is in that vein. In it, we discuss:
* Why do tech bros love narrated articles?
* How Daman trained his mind to listen to pods at super fast speeds
* Why are journalists afraid to go subscription model?
* Going for Likes vs. Going for Dollars
* Who’s winning the streaming wars?
* On whether the Binge Model was a mistake
* How does the NBA create events within its regular season?
* On if ESPN is too big (a monopoly on tv rights) to fail
* The NFL bullying the NBA
* Is Woj too big to fail?
* LIV as player empowerment in golf
* Could LIV happen in golf?
* Daman vs. Kevin Durant on the concept of leadership
* Did Deadspinism kill the concept of character in sports?
* KD as man without a country
