Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

JoAn Scott - NCAA VP of Men’s Basketball
Q: What stands out most from JoAnne Scott's time leading the NCAA Tournament?
She highlights the evolution of fan experience, the importance of leadership that tells the truth, and the ongoing transformation of the tournament's branding, logistics, and player-centric elements.
Tom Fletcher - Founder & President of Momento, Sports Broadcasting HOF'er
Q: What do you see as the future of sports broadcasting and fan engagement?
Technologies will get smaller and more capable, enabling more angles and AI-driven enhancements; the industry will rely on data analytics to tailor experiences, and big media deals will shape what fans see and how they pay for content.
Tom Fletcher - Founder & President of Momento, Sports Broadcasting HOF'er
Q: What inspired Momento and how does it connect fans with moments from games?
The idea came from my son, who asked why there wasn't technology to capture the fan moment; we built a system indexing every seat to deliver personalized images and even allow teams to sponsor photos, turning memories into memorabilia.
Tom Fletcher - Founder & President of Momento, Sports Broadcasting HOF'er
Q: How did you become interested in cameras and revolutionizing sports TV coverage?
I started with a background in photography, moved into lighting for TV, and then built smaller, remote-controlled camera heads to place cameras in novel positions like behind the backboard and near the shot clock, working with directors to expand the angles viewers see.
Peter O’Reilly - NFL EVP Club Business, International & League Events
Q: How does Anheuser-Busch approach Super Bowl ad planning?
Todd Allen explains that planning begins about 12 months in advance, focusing on consumer engagement and maximizing reach.
