Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mediaweek Newsmakers - RyanCap's Simon Ryan
Q: What do you look for when hiring talent for RyanCap?
A winning mentality, digital focus, senior client relationships, and a cultural fit that values urgency, collaboration, and the ability to work in a nimble environment rather than a rigid HR-driven structure.
Mediaweek Newsmakers - RyanCap's Simon Ryan
Q: What makes RyanCap faster or more agile than larger holdcos?
We operate with a lean governance model, rapid P&L reviews, and an ability to hire and deploy resources within 24 hours, free from the half-dozen daily directives that plague large networks.
Mediaweek Newsmakers - RyanCap's Simon Ryan
Q: Why do you view RyanCap as still independent given the acquisition by Cosmo Five?
Because Cosmo Five is privately owned and aligned with our culture and speed, allowing us to maintain autonomy in decision-making and execution while accessing capital and market reach through a strong private framework.
Mediaweek's Newsmakers: Broadcaster David Koch
Q: What is the advice for younger journalists now, or anyone with an idea to push ahead and change the conversation?
Koch stresses authenticity, building a distinct personal brand, and staying true to oneself rather than mimicking others, arguing that the audience can sense when someone is not genuine and that niche expertise can lead to lasting relevance.
Mediaweek's Newsmakers: The Atlantic's Hanna Rosin
Q: Do you see the current media landscape changing the way you approach storytelling or reporting?
Rosin discusses the need to resist noise and clickbait by grounding reporting in deep character-driven storytelling, taking months to marinate issues, and ensuring stories connect to people's lives beyond quick takes.
