Puck News co-founder and Ringer podcast host Matthew Belloni presents the most comprehensive view of whatever’s happening in showbusinss, both big and small picture. Naturally, I wanted his takes on the role of modern sports docs (Such as Quarterback on Netflix), ESPN, and the death of tentpole comedies post 2014. We got all that, plus a lot more, within a highly efficient podcast. Topics include but aren’t limited to:
* Should I paywall this?
* Is the much hyped Quarterback on Netflix actually good? Maybe not?
* Matt’s take on the new Steph Curry doc and what isn’t in it.
* Why is ESPN unable to afford sports docs that Netflix gobbles up?
* What’s ESPN’s future in this dark hour?
* How’s the NBA getting involved in streaming?
* Is the NFL on Amazon a success?
* The decline of comedy movies: How much does social media sensitivity play a role?
