  • Every Things, Everywhere, All at Once with Dan Shipper - [Making Media, EP.61]
    May 16 2024
    Our guest today is Dan Shipper, the co-founder and CEO of Every. Every started at the beginning of the pandemic as a bundle of business newsletters written by different authors. While writing is still at the heart of the business, the model has shifted focus to a daily newsletter that is an essay on technology, productivity, or AI. Dan and his team have also built adjacent business lines and even incubated a startup called Lex that they spun out last year. We talk through the evolution of Every, which really gets to the core of what's both great and challenging about media companies. He goes into detail about his entrepreneurial spirit that started way back in fifth grade, how he's become laser-focused on AI recently, launching a great podcast on the subject, and chatGPT specifically. Please enjoy this conversation with Dan Shipper.

    This week, we bring you two titans of the podcasting world, Tim Ferriss and our very own Colossus chairman, Patrick O’Shaughnessy.

Mike worked on that show alongside Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe, and others as the main line producer.

And, more recently, he has launched his own business working as an adviser to digital media companies and connecting investors & content producers. We tap into all his experience in a discussion around personality-driven media businesses and how that has evolved both at a national scale and for independent creators.
