State of Sports Media: The Ringer
Manage episode 348532675 series 3137130
This week we dig into Bill Simmons's project, The Ringer. This website and podcast network bridge the divide between sports and pop culture. They also bring a certain amount of snark and humor to the conversation. They are also really leaning into the podcasting side, which is much more profitable for them. So, where does a media source focused so much on podcasts fit in? How do we feel about that mix of pop culture and sports? Is this model sustainable?
Further, we talk about the Women's World Cup, the Cricket World Cup and the French Open. Thanks for listening!
