The Five



On Tuesday evening, I had the serendipitous fortune of bumping into an old 
friend in a totally unexpected place. I’d flown into Mountain View for a 
keynote conversation with Philipp Schindler, Google’s chief business 
officer, at the company’s annual marketing summit. As I was deplaning from 
SFO and preparing for a traffic-filled commute down the peninsula, I got a 
text from Ben Smith, the co-founder of Semafor. It included a photo of his 
speaker dossier next to mine at the conference’s reception area. I was 
thrilled to have a buddy in town, and we quickly arranged to meet for a 
drink later that evening.

In many ways, Semafor and Puck have helped define the latest generation in 
media. While that might ostensibly make Ben and me rivals, we’re both too 
battle-tested and circumspect to take that sort of bait. Plus, we’ve learned 
enough from our forebears to know that this industry is hardly zero-sum. 
Shortly after he announced the formation of his business, in fact, I called 
to wish him luck, and we agreed to remain friends and help each other where 
we could. The sentiment remains.

As the light faded over the roof of the Ameswell Hotel, we got to pick each 
other’s brains about our respective founder journeys. Indeed, we had plenty 
to catch up on. Even though our offices are only a couple miles away from 
each other in Lower Manhattan, the last time we’d seen each other was many 
months earlier in a hotel restaurant in Washington, where we were both 
quietly engaged in clandestine recruiting missions. And, other than the 
occasional hellos at industry confabs, the last time we had spent meaningful 
time was years earlier at a conference in Deer Valley, of all places.

When I brought up that memory, we both quickly recalled how few of the other 
media companies present during that event were still with us. Of course, any 
Puck reader knows that the rate of transformation has continually 
accelerated within the media business. In fact, as Philipp and I would 
discuss onstage the following day, history is an insufficient guide for 
understanding the leveling power of our current reorientation in the era of 
artificial intelligence. It’s a topic that Julia Alexander also explored 
luminously in Puck this week. Call My Agentic!, her masterstroke on the 
A.I.-laden revolutions descending on the publishing world, is required 
reading for everyone in the media game.

As Ben and I caught up, we were deeply honest about the shifts that have 
roiled our industry—some predictable, but many not. We were candid about 
some misadventures, upfront about incorrect hypotheses, and awestruck about 
the rate of change. Beyond Silicon Valley, however, few industries have 
shape-shifted more within Puck’s five-year lifespan than Hollywood. Almost 
exactly a half-decade ago, our company effectively took its first step when 
my partner Matt Belloni sent out the very first issue of his 
industry-defining newsletter, What I’m Hearing, on May 20, 2021. Around that 
time, a largely unknown executive named David Zaslav had just announced his 
intention to take over WarnerMedia, the historic core of media assets then 
owned by AT&T. Five years later, of course, Zaz is selling it all off to the 
Ellisons for $111 billion. Least predictably of all, he’s also become a de 
minimis investor in Puck through an acquisition we made last year.

To capture the sheer magnitude of the changes in Hollywood, Matt recently 
offered a retrospective of sorts. What I’ve Heard: Five Years of Hollywood 
Disruption is an extraordinary recap, told by the executives and agents who 
lived through the remaking of the modern entertainment business—for better 
or worse. It’s imbued with Matt’s characteristically brilliant insights and 
deep relationships, and it really has become the story of our time. I urge 
you to curl up with it during this long weekend. After all, the only 
certainty, in both media and entertainment, is that the next five years will 
be even more unpredictable.





Have a great long weekend,
Jon
