Brian talks about the impact Fred Seibert had on him, in-terms of content marketing, when Fred was running Frederator Studios back in 2007. Podcast interview with Fred - https://podcast.venturevoice.com/episodes/vv-show-43-fred-seibert-of-frederator-studios-and-next-new-networks-CLYs4bV1 Checkout Fred's new venture FredFilms - https://www.fredfilms.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ubo3_xRhSTw Transcription Ubiquitous content strategy. Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live. We're gonna be talking about content marketing, and how to have a strategy that's ubiquitous, nice big word there. It means everywhere, right? It's about being everywhere. And just so much everywhere that no one even questions that that's kind of why I like the term ubiquitous because it's kind of like, it's just, you don't question it, it's everywhere, right? I have to apologize for my voice. I don't know, I've got something I probably have COVID or something. I don't mean to make light of it. But it's just funny how all this, you know, all these diseases that we get every year now has this, this shadow of COVID over it. So I don't think it's COVID. It's just a sore throat, but it all comes with the territory. I guess we won't get too far into that. Let's talk about content strategy and how to be ubiquitous. And I want to talk about this guy, or this logo, shall I say, that was all about Fredrater. This goes back. 14 years ago, I think it was 14 years ago, I'm going by what I just saw on an old podcast episode that I found because it was a podcast episode that had a unique way of completely changing my view of content marketing forever. And started at a time when I would never have known the term content marketing. In fact, I hardly knew the term search engine optimization at that point. But a piece of this interview is later on in the interview, I haven't gone back and re-listen to it because I recognized it. So immediately after starting to listen to it, I said, this is it. This is the interview that I remember changing my life. It was with this podcast Venture Voice, I've got a link in the description. So you can go check that out. If you're at a place where you can't see the link, go to BrianJPombo.com, and check out this episode. You'll be able to find the link to this specific podcast that's still out there, at least here in 2021, and it's worth listening to. Not that every prediction that happened in it came true, really the piece that he brings up about how he was able to well let me give you some background, Fred Seibert is who this interview was with if you're not familiar with Fred Seibert, he is a cable TV icon. Yeah, he started doing a lot of animation and bumpers for Nickelodeon, and MTV, some of the most famous bumpers that they had kind of advertising their networks, in the early days of the late 80s, 90s. He been responsible for many classic animation shows on television. And a lot of them started out on this podcast love, the more recent ones in the last 20 years or so started out on this podcast, which is called Frederator. If you're familiar with Frederator, Frederator was a podcast that was showing up and coming animators, and they're short clips of their animation. And then the ones that caught on ended up becoming something or took the animators to another level which he's been a huge promoter of that industry for quite a while. What he was able to do very early on in podcasting land. And this was 2007 is when I heard it, this is when this podcast originally came out. He's discussing how they were able to use the blogging function of podcasts because every podcast starts in a blog in a sense. Because they're all based on being on the background of having RSS, which is called Really Simple Syndication, and then that goes out to all the podcast aggregators. At that time, the main one was iTunes, but now you've got a million of them.

Today, MTV is a cultural institution. But people forget what a long shot it was to get the channel off the ground. Bob Pittman led the team that created MTV. In this special episode, he reminisces with co-founders and friends John Sykes, Judy McGrath, Fred Seibert, Tom Freston and Jarl Mohn about what it was like to create the '80s version of a start-up, and lead a TV revolution by dreaming up the rules as they went along. From why the first MTV logo was designed on crinkled paper (it spent a little time in a trash bin), to how a tiny record store in Tulsa helped save the business, to why you should really think twice about going on a Lost Weekend with Van Halen... all the way to how a terrible cereal inspired one of the greatest ad slogans of all time: “I want my MTV,” we’ve packed this episode full of stories that marketers, fans and entrepreneurs will all want to hear.

Fred Seibert is the Chief Creative Officer of WOW! Unlimited Media, a Canadian animation and media holding company. Fred began his career in radio and music production before transitioning to television as MTV’s first Creative Director. He later co-founded a media branding agency and then served as President of Hanna-Barbera Cartoons before it was acquired by Time Warner. Fred was the Founder & CEO of Next New Networks, one of the first multi-channel networks which was acquired by YouTube in 2011, after which he founded Frederator, which he’s run for the past 23 years. In this episode, we discuss media’s impact on pop culture over the last few decades. Fred marvels at the impact that the previously unknown artist Lil Nas X’s has had on the music industry with his record-breaking hit “Old Town Road,” which initially gained traction on TikTok and other social platforms. We also debate the effectiveness of Netflix’s programming strategy and examine why newer SVOD entrants all seek to copy the Netflix model. Finally, Fred predicts a resurgence in specialty programming to serve niche audiences and explains why animation can’t be easily commoditized in the same way as music and television.

The Fat Boys are an American hip hop trio from Brooklyn, New York City, that emerged in the early 1980s. The group was briefly known originally as the Disco 3.Mark Morales a.k.a. "Prince Markie Dee"Damon Wimbley a.k.a. "Kool Rock-Ski"Darren Robinson a.k.a. "Buff Love" a.k.a. "The Human Beat Box" (June 10, 1967 – December 10, 1995)Manager Charlie Stettler was a Swiss national who had embraced hip-hop culture. In 1983, putting the two together he contacted the nascent Swatch company and offered the talents of his group. The American office marketing group, headed by Steven Rechtschaffner and Nancy Kadner, were starting to do some offbeat, interesting campaigns, and agreed to star the Fat Boys in one of MTV's earliest commercials. Stettler, knowing the video channel was playing no hip-hop, readily agreed. Even with no fee he sensed the exposure would catapult his trio into youth's mainstream. The company returned to The Fat Boys for a 1985 Christmas commercial, created by former MTV creative heads Alan Goodman and Fred Seibert.The group's 1984 self-titled debut, The Fat Boys, is considered by many to be an early hip hop classic, with artists like Boogie Down Productionsand Redman, among others, making references to the album.Big Buff Love, the Human Beatbox, was a pioneer in beatboxing (using his mouth to create hip hop percussion sounds). He and another contemporary, Doug E. Fresh, popularized beatboxing, inspiring other artists to innovate, including Biz Markie.For its 1987 album, Crushin', the Fat Boys made a cover version of The Surfaris' hit "Wipe Out" with The Beach Boys singing back-up vocals. The single made it to #12 on the Billboard chart, and #10 on the corresponding R&B listing. The Fat Boys also recorded a version of "The Twist" with Chubby Checker, who performed it originally in 1960.Capitalizing on their good-humored personalities, the trio starred in the 1985 Run-D.M.C. feature film Krush Groove and in the feature film Disorderlies (1987), which featured Ralph Bellamy as a millionaire invalid who receives bumbling care by his good-natured orderlies (played by the Fat Boys), with a cameo by manager Stettler. The group was later approached to record the theme song for A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988), called "Are You Ready for Freddy," which featured Robert Englund performing as Freddy Krueger.Attempting to capitalize on the appearance-oriented name of the Fat Boys, another hip hop group dubbed itself the Skinny Boys, and yet another the Fat Girls. The popularity of those groups was mild in comparison, however.The group's popularity declined by the 1990s. For example, in the 1992 feature film Boomerang, Chris Rock's character laments the breakup of the Fat Boys. He was later quoted by Jay-Z in his 2001 song the "Heart of the City (Ain't No Love)". Prince Markie Dee left the group to pursue solo interests, which included producing many early tracks for Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige which included her debut single, "Real Love." In 1991, the remaining two members, Kool Rock Ski and Buff Love, carried on as a duo and released Mack Daddy (1991), but shortly thereafter, the group disbanded (until 2008).On December 10, 1995, Buff Love died of a heart attack in Rosedale, Queens, New York. He was 28 years old and reportedly weighed 450 pounds (200 kg). Prince Markie Dee is a current radio host for WEDR 99 Jamz in Miami, Florida working weekends. Kool Rock-ski resides in New York.The surviving members of the Fat Boys launched its first official homepage, OriginalFatBoys.com, on November 5, 2008. According to the website, the Fat Boys recorded its first track "Fat Boys Unite" in nearly two decades and have plans of doing a reality TV show in search of a new member.[1]In March 2009, Kool Rock-ski announced the launch of his official website, KoolRockSki.com. His first solo project, the EP Party Time, was released on April 14, 2009.On October 18, 2010, the cable network TV One's aired Unsung: The Story of The Fat Boys. It mentioned that the two surviving members reunited and were touring with Doug E. Fresh who was providing the beatboxing. There has been no confirmation if he is the new third permanent member. This was produced by the group's manager, Louis Gregory, publicly known as Uncle Louie.In August 2012, The Fat Boys were scheduled to perform at the 13th annual Gathering of the Juggalos in Cave-In-Rock, Illinois but ultimately failed to appear.[2]In August 2017 the groups current manager, Uncle Louie discussed their commercial success with Rolling Stone Magazine. [3]In early 2015, The Fat Boys re-launched their clothing line, FatBoysClothing.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

To call Fred Seibert "a producer" is like calling Steve Hillenburg "a guy who drew a sponge." A visionary force in the early days of Nickelodeon, the former president of Hanna-Barbera, and the current big cheese behind Frederator, Fred has produced cartoon classics such as The FairlyOddparents, Adventure Time, Fanboy and Chum Chum, and Bee And Puppy Cat, to name a few. To us, he's a legendary animation entrepreneur, even though Fred calls himself a professional fan.
Before the rise of the Internet, cable TV was the new form of distribution remaking the entertainment business. Life-long entrepreneur and former jazz producer Fred Seibert pioneered that field, and is known in the industry for branding MTV (remember their ever-changing animated logo) and Nickelodeon (remember Nick-at-Nite).…
