The Twisted World of Media Tycoons

A Succesion-esque story of media power.

By

The worlds of media tycoons are often so strange and twisted, it’s hard to believe the stories aren’t fiction. In Unscripted: The Epic Battle for a Media Empire and the Redstone Family Legacy, authors James B. Stewart and Rachel Abrams chronicle the dramatic story of one of the most powerful media dynasties in history. Join Steve Hayes as he interviews Stewart and Abrams on the history of the Redstone family and their rise to power.

    This was a fascinating interview Steve! I actually bought the book and started it as soon as I finished listening to it. Steve, I know you are super-mega busy, but I sure enjoy when you host podcasts. I wish you could make time to do a "Remnantesque" Steve Hayes podcast?

    Interesting podcast, and supports my suspicion that the caricatured evil corporations depicted in TV shows and movies is an extrapolation of what writers and producers have been seeing in their industry.

    Great change of pace, Steve! Added advantage of making Pod jealous. You deserve, at least temporarily, a seat at the culture nerd table, something you must have been longing for.

    Are you considering a different name for this podcast to distinguish it from the weekly round table ?
