Episode description

From inheriting a struggling $1M billboard business after his father’s death to creating a $10B global news brand, Ted Turner changed media forever. Tom “Biz Doc” Ellsworth unpacks the early CNN burn rate, the $7.5B Time Warner deal, the billion‑dollar pledge, the land empire and how 24‑hour news reshaped our phones and feeds. Tom Ellsworth breaks down what these signals mean for consumer health, housing, migration trends, inflation dynamics, and whether markets are stabilizing or flashing early stress signals beneath the surface. ♟️ VAULT 2026 TICKETS: https://bit.ly/4tpH8vV 🟩 TAKE A POSITION ON KALSHI:http://kalshi.com/pbd 📈 SCALE YOUR BUSINESS: https://bit.ly/4qdoEwz Ⓜ️ MINNECT WITH TOM ELLSWORTH: https://bit.ly/3OBkSQg 👨‍💻 GET TO KNOW TOM: https://bit.ly/4s6BIEQ 📺 SUBSCRIBE TO: ⁨ @PBDPodcast ⁨ @Valuetainment ⁨ @ValuetainmentShortClips 🏛️ ABOUT US: Valuetainment is the leading source for content on entrepreneurship, capitalism, and leadership.
