    Jay is a crusher. If you are in the media business, you need to listen to his podcast. If you aren’t, you will be fired because you are missing knowledge bombs from Jay.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Buy, Integrate, Repeat: Tim Hart on the Playbook Behind Arc's Roll-Up
Q: Tell me a little bit about the thread that connects your career and what you're particularly good at at these companies?
Tim explains that the through line is being an all-rounder who enjoys M&A, integration, and operating the business alongside a strong team, with a focus on applying a broad skill set across strategy, deals, and ongoing growth.
From Media Company to Crypto's Market Infrastructure: Jason Yanowitz on Blockworks' Transformation
Q: Why did you decide to cut the news business and focus on data and software?
Cutting the news arm was driven by a desire to reduce distractions and align the company around high-mmargin, recurring data revenue; external podcasts and newsletters were trimmed to funnel resources into engineering, data science, and product; the leadership believed this pivot would accelerate growth and competitiveness in a fragmented market.
From Media Company to Crypto's Market Infrastructure: Jason Yanowitz on Blockworks' Transformation
Q: What is the business model for the three core products (data, token transparency framework, IR platform)?
All three products are monetized through a three-sided revenue model: (1) issuers pay for initial and ongoing disclosures, (2) investors pay for data access or API/platform access, and (3) exchanges license data to trade on their venues; pricing is usage-based, shifting away from seed-based models as data consumption grows.
The Dispatch's Strategy for Growth: A Deep Dive with Mike Rothman
Q: Talk a little bit about that transition and why the shift from consumer advertising toward subscription-based business.
The shift was driven by a belief that a direct relationship with readers would better align incentives, support long-term growth, and enable a more creator-led, values-driven approach. The Dispatch focused on building a subscription-first model with a careful expansion into B2B and verticals to diversify revenue while preserving trust and independent reporting.
Building Value: Louise White's Vision for Sift's Growth and Transformation
Q: What was the hardest part of transformation from a sales perspective?
The hardest part was changing mindsets across teams—from transactional selling to a client-focused, outcomes-driven approach. This involved reorganizing around a go-to-market model, aligning sales with customer success, ABM marketing, and a two-track operation to keep revenue flowing while transforming the business.
