Summary

This one is all-time fire. I was lucky enough to sit with The Drum in an intimate setting in front of 100 people for what is sure to be one of my best interviews. We cover a lot but at the top of the list is Virtual Reality, the thought of everyone being a media company, and the true worth of a 'personal brand.' Save this one for your longer commutes (or workouts) because you're not going to want to cut this short ;)

Everyone ready? Let's do this. Okay, Gary, first question, I'm going to keep it really easy.

0:10.7

You have 1.2 million followers on Twitter, well done there. You've got channels all over the place,

0:15.8

you've got Stitcher, Snapchat, Facebook, YouTube, iTunes, SoundCloud. What's your favourite?

0:23.5

My favourite. I think this is similar to when a lot of people ask me what my favourite one is.

0:29.5

I don't necessarily have a favourite. I think we go through momentum. I would say Twitter has

0:35.5

historically been my favourite platform because it's the easiest one natively from a UI UX standpoint

0:40.5

for me to engage with all of you, which is really valuable to me. Snapchat right now is,

0:46.5

and obviously a lot of the people in here who are either watching or in the room,

0:50.5

if they follow me, I'm very fond of, and what I really love about that is when I have the chance

0:55.5

to reply one on one in that environment, I get even more of a lift. To me, what I love social media for

1:02.5

is a little bit different than I think most people. I truly believe that most people are way too

1:07.5

over-focused on the distribution of their content in that environment. And for me, I'm very much focused

1:16.5

on that, but I do believe that it is a platform that allows for scaling the unscatable,

1:21.5

the one-to-one engagements. I know a lot more about the people in this room than they could ever imagine.

1:27.5

And I think that's how you build actual community and depth. And so for me, the tools that allow that the most

1:33.5

are the ones that are most interesting to me. And so I'll be honest with you, even the change on Twitter

1:39.5

to the heart where I'm now instead of like, which felt weird, like somebody says something nice,

1:44.5

it's amazing how little subtle things work. If somebody here said something, I never liked anything on,

1:49.5

or starred. I never favored anything on Twitter that one here would say about me, but the heart,

1:56.5

because of the way that works and the other platforms, is more of an appreciation for you giving me love.

2:01.5

And then it's a scalable way for me to create context with you to let you know that I'm paying attention,

2:06.5

tools that allow me to prove that it's me. I think I'm always stunned how many people, even after a decade,
