13354767, & listening to him on Maron's WTF, back in September

He's seemingly anti-labor, as far as creative productions.
Or at least values the quantity over quality.
He explained that he finds there to be enormous waste among production crews, 'who all just want to work 2 hours and be paid for 12'and has changed his production model into one that more resembles a GM factory line, so that if he sends a crew out to shoot a formula series race on location in Monaco, he'll also have them use the time there to also shoot content for his other channels, like the chefs and restaurants for a cooking channel, homes and resorts for a luxury lifestyle channel and pets for a pet channel.
He has one of the most expansive libraries of original television content, but has won only one a single Emmy.

I'd never want to work for him, but I do like what he has to say about solutions to combat the racial wealth gap.
