Same Room 纽约华语播客节 纽约文化沙龙致力于拓展线下活动的公共性。我们主张众说纷纭而非整齐划一；我们拥抱多元视角而非标准答案。我们审视和反抗无意识的价值规训与随波逐流；我们冷酷地剖析自己的偏见，热忱地唤醒失落的维度。我们邀请每一颗寻找意义的心灵进入这个空间，真诚地感知、言说、倾听、理解。 这也是中文播客在这几年带给我们的力量之源。我们习惯于在异步时空中，独自聆听那些散落全球的美好中文——他们记录大时代、解构流行文化、观察城市与政治、想象参与世界的新方法……我们赞叹于那些独特的观点，并且渴望回应与共鸣。 于是我们决定：让这些声音在同一个空间回响。我们邀请来自 11 个播客的 12 位主播，从录音室出来，走进同一个房间，带着自己的叙事与视角，用声波碰撞，激荡出一个丰饶的公共声场。我们也邀请你，放下耳机，走进房间，成为塑造这个声场的在场者。 参与主播： 《起朱楼宴宾客》大卫翁 《疲惫娇娃》小杨 《美轮美换》Lokin 《城市传说》罗雨翔 《行星酒馆》东尼 《唠点纽约嗑》Rachel 47 / 杨蒙恩 《纽约漫谈录》欧阳斌 《残言片语》仁慈 / 伊如 《硅谷 101》/《新新人类》一闻 《选修课》老赵 活动形式： 三场对话，每场一小时。具体分组与话题会在未来公布。 时间：2026-06-14 周日 2-6 PM 地点：Cooper Union Rose Auditorium 地址：41 Cooper Sq, New York, NY 10008 报名链接：https://luma.com/1ver2cyw 【聊了什么】 本期我们请杨一回到节目，从 CBS《60分钟》一周之内的大清洗和 Scott Pelley 被解雇聊起。一个仍然赚钱、仍有收视率、仍是美国新闻界殿堂级的节目，为什么会突然陷入公开内战？Bari Weiss、Nick Bilton、Paramount/Skydance 并购以及Paramount和WBD合并、特朗普政府与 FCC 审查，又怎样共同构成了这场风波背后的权力结构？ 我们也回顾《60分钟》的历史：Don Hewitt 如何把杂志叙事、明星记者和好莱坞式戏剧感带进电视新闻；它是怎样成为美国电视新闻的神话，又怎样影响中国观众对外媒和调查报道的想象。我们也讨论了在流媒体、算法和 AI 时代，这套电视新闻神话还能撑多久。 我们同时还聊了最近发生在美国网络媒体界的大新闻——BuzzFeed被收购和Vox Media旗下New York Magazine、Vox.com和Vox Media Podcast Network被Jame Murdoch部分收购，这部分内容将在《去现场》播出，欢迎关注《去现场》收听更多内容。 【支持我们】 如果喜欢这期节目并希望支持我们将节目继续做下去： 也欢迎加入我们的会员计划： https://theamericanroulette.com/paid-membership/ 会员可以收到每周2-5封newsletter，可以加入会员社群，参加会员活动，并享受更多福利。 合作投稿邮箱：american.roulette.pod@gmail.com 【时间轴】 02:02 CBS《60分钟》大清洗与 Scott Pelley 被解雇 09:27 为什么《60分钟》被视为美国新闻业的“大教堂” 13:22 Bari Weiss、Paramount 与 CBS 新权力结构 17:37 萨尔瓦多监狱报道被叫停：纸媒思维误入电视台 20:17 《60分钟》为何能成为殿堂级节目 21:22 Don Hewitt 如何创造电视新闻杂志 31:32 好莱坞叙事、明星记者与调查报道的黄金时代 35:22 烟草调查与《60分钟》的新闻理想神话 38:52 《60分钟》与中国 51:47 《60分钟》在 CBS 内部的特殊地位 55:52 《60分钟》的模式还能撑多久 【我们是谁】 美轮美换是一档深入探讨当今美国政治的中文播客。 本期的主播和嘉宾： 小华：媒体人 杨一：旅欧媒体人，播客《去现场》主播 【 What We Talked About】 In this episode, Yang Yi returns to the show as we begin with a week of turmoil inside CBS's 60 Minutes: a sweeping purge of senior staff and the firing of Scott Pelley. How did a program that is still profitable, still watched, and still regarded as one of the great institutions of American journalism end up in open internal war? And how do Bari Weiss, Nick Bilton, the Paramount/Skydance and Paramount/WBD merger, the Trump administration, and FCC scrutiny together shape the power structure behind this crisis? We also look back at the history of 60 Minutes: how Don Hewitt brought magazine-style storytelling, star correspondents, and a Hollywood sense of drama into television news; how the show became a myth of American TV journalism; and how it shaped Chinese audiences' imagination of foreign media and investigative reporting. We also ask how much longer this model of television news can survive in the age of streaming, algorithms, and AI. We also discussed two major recent developments in American digital media: the acquisition of BuzzFeed, and James Murdoch's partial acquisition of New York Magazine, Vox.com, and the Vox Media Podcast Network under Vox Media.

This week, Joe and Robert dig into the media reckoning hitting some of the biggest names in digital publishing. Vice, BuzzFeed, Vox, and others once represented the future of media, with massive valuations, venture money, and platform-driven scale. Now, many of those same companies have been sold, split apart, or pushed into bankruptcy. The boys ask the uncomfortable question: how did companies worth billions become cautionary tales? On the flip side, 1440 just received a $101 million valuation with only 27 employees and a focused newsletter-first model. The company generates about $1 million per employee and has built a direct relationship with nearly 5 million subscribers. Joe and Robert discuss why this is the same lesson they have been talking about for years: don't build your content house on rented land. Owned audience, discipline, and direct trust still win. Then the conversation turns to the growing demand for live experiences and even print products. Investors are rewarding live entertainment, movie theaters, concerts, and premium in-person experiences, while print continues to show surprising signs of life in certain corners of media. Is this a true long-term opportunity, or just a small bubble created by digital exhaustion? Winners and Losers Joe's winner is the baklava guy outside Knicks games, a perfect example of small, weird, consistent marketing becoming part of the fan experience. Robert's winner and loser is Ferrari's new design. In rants and raves, Joe talks about Nate B. Jones changing his AI newsletter frequency, moving away from the daily news grind and toward a more useful weekly cadence. Robert closes with commentary on the death of per-seat pricing and what it means for the coming SaaS apocalypse.

Your blog will never earn an audience. Ever. That's not me — that's Melissa Rosenthal, who ran the SEO content engine at ClickUp, built media at BuzzFeed and Cheddar, and is now co-founder of Outlever building the playbook that replaces it. In this episode, Melissa makes the case that the SEO blog era is collapsing in real time, that one strategic LinkedIn poster will out-perform 150 employees doing employee advocacy, and that while every other B2B operator is betting on AI, she's betting on humans — and using AI to do it. She's also dogfooding the entire thesis with her new publication, The State of Brand, which hit a million unique views in three weeks.   What you'll learn • Why the SEO blog was a 'slot machine' — and what survives the AI search collapse • The two-month consistency rule that separates real owned media from content theater • Why one strategic LinkedIn poster beats 150 employees doing employee advocacy • The one-to-one distribution playbook replacing mass organic traffic • How Melissa's State of Brand publication converts at ~40% to demo on banner ads (yes, banner ads) • Why product parity is now enough to beat 15-year incumbents — if your brand, service, and POV are sharper   Connect Melissa Rosenthal on LinkedIn The State of Brand Outlever Marketing Trends   Chapters • 0:00   The SEO blog era is over • 1:30   What's lighting Melissa up: State of Brand hits 1M views in 3 weeks • 4:30   BuzzFeed → Cheddar → ClickUp: why B2B needs B2C instincts • 7:33   Why Outlever built its own publication (and dogfooded the thesis) • 13:00  How to make B2B content go viral without AI slop • 18:50  Quality vs quantity: the false binary killing content teams • 22:14  Why one strategic poster beats 150 employees • 25:37  The two-month consistency rule • 26:33  'Your blog will never earn an audience' • 30:17  Everyone says video-first.

Seven months of overwhelming grief led him to gather natural materials and create something that shifted something inside.

In questa puntata partiamo dal nuovo round di Anthropic, arrivata a una valutazione da 965 miliardi di dollari, e dal confronto sempre più stretto con OpenAI. Proviamo a capire che cosa si nasconde dietro questi numeri: l'afflusso record di capitali nell'AI e il rischio che il settore venga dominato da un numero sempre più ristretto di aziende. Poi ci spostiamo sui media: dalla crisi di BuzzFeed e Vox alla trasformazione di YouTube nella nuova televisione, per capire che cosa resta della promessa dei new media.

Buzzfeed? In 2026? What is this?

Animators are furious about Amazon MGM's new AI cartoon program, including a former Buzzfeed employee who claims they used her Cupcake character without consent. Others in the animation industry are expressing disappointment with Jorge R. Gutierrez (Book of Life) for using AI. So let's talk about the pros and cons of animators using AI, and whether or not this is just unavailable in 2026. Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.

Jeffrey Epstein's relationship with John Brockman was one of the clearest examples of how Epstein bought his way into elite intellectual culture. Brockman was a powerful literary agent and the founder of Edge, a high-status salon world that brought together scientists, technologists, writers, entrepreneurs, and billionaires. Epstein used Brockman's orbit as a legitimacy machine: not merely to meet famous thinkers, but to place himself inside the room where wealth, science, technology, and cultural prestige overlapped. Reporting has described Brockman as a key connector who helped Epstein gain access to prominent academics and scientists, while Epstein's money helped support Edge-related activities. BuzzFeed reported in 2019 that Epstein was Edge's largest financial donor and that his association with Edge gave him access to leading scientists and tech figures. Later DOJ-released material and reporting showed that Epstein continued trying to stay close to that world years after his 2008 conviction, which is what makes the relationship so ugly: Brockman's intellectual network gave Epstein a way to rebrand himself as a patron of science rather than a registered sex offender.The “Billionaires' Dinner” was the perfect stage for that laundering operation. Hosted around the TED conference world, the Edge dinners gathered the kind of people Epstein desperately wanted to be seen with: Silicon Valley titans, famous scientists, investors, authors, and cultural power brokers. Epstein attended those gatherings from the early 2000s and reportedly as late as 2011, after his conviction, and earlier Edge material even described the dinner as one of Epstein's favorite events before references to him were later scrubbed. The significance is not that every person at those dinners was involved in Epstein's crimes; it is that Epstein understood proximity as power. If he could sit among billionaires, Nobel-level scientists, tech founders, and public intellectuals, he could turn their presence into camouflage. Brockman's world gave Epstein exactly what he needed after his criminal exposure: intellectual polish, elite access, and a room full of respected people whose proximity helped him look less like a predator and more like a misunderstood financier with “interesting ideas.”to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this week's Best Of episode, we present two stories of people who had to leave home to find a new home.Part 1: When Ph.D student Ali Mattu's girlfriend tells him she is moving to New York City, he has to make some tough decisions about where home is. Part 2: Arlo Pérez Esquivel struggles to define his boundaries with his father while he is pursuing his education in another country.Ali Mattu is a cognitive behavioral therapist who helps kids and adults with anxiety disorders. Through YouTube, Dr. Mattu teaches a global audience how to use psychological science to achieve their goals. He's created over 100 videos for his YouTube channel, The Psych Show, which have been seen over 1,400,00 million times. He has been interviewed by the New York Times, appeared on Buzzfeed, MTV, CBS, NBC, PBS, and has the honor of being referenced, and not made fun of, on HBO's Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. Dr. Mattu is a licensed clinical psychologist and was an assistant professor at the Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City. He presently serves on the Board of Directors of The Story Collider and creates curriculum for the Pop Culture Hero Coalition. He has served in a variety of leadership roles within the American Psychological Association. Arlo Pérez Esquivel was raised in Mexico until the age of 16, when he left for the United States. There, he moved across multiple states, and lived in the homes of different friends and relatives in order to finish his education. During this constant movement, Arlo developed a passion for street photography. His work attempts to investigate the “sense of place” by capturing people, their environment, and the relationship between the two. He is now a Digital Associate Producer for NOVA on PBS, currently working on a ten-part digital series on how life and science are done in Antarctica.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Once valued in the billions, digital media giants like BuzzFeed and Vox Media are now selling assets and restructuring as the old traffic-driven publishing model breaks down. On this episode of the Digiday Podcast, Digiday senior media editor Jessica Davies and senior media reporter Sara Guaglione joins hosts Kimeko McCoy and Tim Peterson to unpack what the fall of billion-dollar valuations says about the future of digital media.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, it's what we call a quick "chit chat" episode to start off your 4-day work week :-) Harrison joins us for all of about a minute before we sent him home with the kids… but NOT BEFORE Tate said "hello" to the pod listeners (guys, she was so proud of herself for using the mic). We start with our MDW block party recap. We had 200+ people show up, the dunk tank was the unexpected MVP, and Harrison flipped 200+ burgers/dogs (because the man does everything 200%). OH — and it wouldn't be a block party in Austin if a Waymo didn't get confused and stuck on our street for like 15 minutes (hahahha). We also get into our actual TIPS on how to throw your own block party because it's so much easier than you think (even though it was a big “get out of your comfort zone” moment for us). Then we get into a little pop culture: the ESPN announcer who refused to say Taylor Swift's name during the Cavs game (?? still confused why), Jessica Simpson didn't even NEED to make a comeback (you guys… her net worth is $200M vs. Hilary Duff's $20M, which completely flipped our opinion from last ep), and we covered her response to the Nick Lachey flight situation (her mom bought the first class tickets… mystery solved!). Then we continue our new ongoing debate over crown vs. crayon (10% of you actually say crown!!), which spirals us into a whole conversation about regional dialects (the NYT Dialect Quiz, the Cleveland "tree lawn", and Alex saying "sea-ment" instead of "cement"). Oh and apparently Jules made a VIRAL BuzzFeed quiz back in the day that had millions of hits (which Halo Top flavor are you?! Guys please take this and lmk in the comments - https://www.buzzfeed.com/minichjg/can-we-guess-your-go-to-halo-top-flavor-with-six-q-37u2u).  Plus, because Harrison left with the kids and we had time on our hands, we went TIKTOK LIVE with you guys to do a Q&A for the first time!!! We got into so many random questions in real time: moving, potty training, the hardest part of parenthood, the Pumpables pump that has changed my life, and so much more. Then we end with two important (read facetiously) questions: should you let your kid stay up past bedtime if they're reading? (The "run or read" bedtime hack that's getting a lot of buzz online.) AND… is it socially acceptable to bring Jules's new ORANGE iPhone 17 Pro Max to a black tie wedding?! (We think yes, because Morgan Stewart said so.) OK hope you guys had fun — WE DID! LOVE YOU GUYS! Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:01:29 Memorial Day block party recap 00:11:41 What's going on at home 00:16:05 ESPN announcer refused to say Taylor Swift's name?! 00:19:16 Jessica Simpson is worth HOW much?!

Dr Boyce asks whether or not it makes sense to purchase Buzzfeed stock.

Tony and Fingers pour Mayor Pingree Small Batch Red Label Bourbon from Valentine Distilling in Ferndale, Michigan — a 94-proof bourbon that blends Valentine's triple pot-distilled bourbon with traditional column-distilled bourbon casks from Lawrenceburg, Indiana. They get notes of vanilla, oak, honey, bread, pepper, citrus, and a little orchard fruit — then find that a cube or a little water brings the bourbon together nicely. Also on this Happy Hour: Jack Daniel's reportedly saying no to a massive Brown-Forman offer, why Malört keeps showing up in people's feeds, St. Elmo's shrimp cocktail, hot wings, blue cheese vs. ranch, cigar note-taking, Fingers' deeply troubling food diary, the cars thieves love most, Byron Allen buying BuzzFeed, older trucks, Chevy Avalanches, and why Defiance Beef may be the better place to spend your money.

Step inside a 1980s Kentucky department store as Kayla Rae Whitaker shares the family secrets and ambition behind her novel Returns & Exchanges. Book Gang welcomes acclaimed author Kayla Rae Whitaker to discuss her much-anticipated new novel, Returns & Exchanges. Whitaker's immersive storytelling and meticulous research bring the 1980s era and its consumer culture to vibrant life. Set in Kentucky during the 1980s, this sweeping family drama follows Fred and Fran, a couple whose rags-to-riches ascent as department store owners brings both fortune and unexpected turmoil. As their business thrives, the family's personal lives become increasingly complicated in this messy family saga. Through multiple perspectives and intricate subplots, the novel explores themes of identity, desire, mental health, and the complexities of the American dream in this page-turning story. In this warm and insightful conversation, we discuss:

In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary Lipovetsky sits down with Vivian Tu, also known as Your Rich BFF, to unpack the gap between creator revenue and real creator wealth. Vivian is a former Wall Street trader, bestselling author, founder of Your Rich BFF, and one of the leading voices in financial education today. Together, Gary and Vivian break down why so many creators look successful online while quietly struggling financially. They discuss the pressure to appear rich, the lifestyle traps creators fall into, and why luxury spending, viral moments, and big brand deals do not automatically create long-term security. Vivian shares the biggest money mistakes creators make, from hiring too early and overspending after their first big check to failing to plan for taxes, inconsistent revenue, and slow brand payments. She also explains why creators need to think like business owners, manage cash flow over the year, and separate revenue from real wealth. The conversation also dives into Vivian's journey from Wall Street to BuzzFeed to building Your Rich BFF, including how her first finance video went viral, why she left a high-paying sales career, and how she built a personal brand around making money conversations more accessible. Gary and Vivian also explore how creators can build wealth beyond their personal brand by investing responsibly, hiring strategically, and creating businesses or assets that can exist beyond their face, name, or posting schedule. If you are a creator, founder, or entrepreneur trying to turn attention into long-term financial security, this episode will change the way you think about money.

'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' writer Jesse McLaren joins Mark Malkoff to discuss his path from 'Colbert Report'  intern and viral BuzzFeed creator to Kimmel staff writer. McLaren shares stories about getting hired off Twitter, writing Oscar jokes, producing celebrity sketches with Brian Cox and Jimmy Kimmel's 2003 self, creating the wax-figure prank that terrified Kimmel's cousin Micki, and turning internet obsessions—from Ariana Grande's impossible stool pose to Hillary Clinton doing the Macarena—into viral comedy.

Just days before we spoke, BuzzFeed co-founder and CEO Jonah Peretti agreed to sell the company, which was losing money and at risk of shutting down. Now there's a new lease on life — and new leadership. Jonah is taking on a new role as president of BuzzFeed AI, and Byron Allen will become CEO of BuzzFeed.  That's obviously a huge structural and organizational change, and a really big decision — prime Decoder bait if there ever was any.
