0:00.0	Hey, token CEO listeners, you can find every episode on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.
0:06.9	Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.
0:11.1	The integration of Dude Wipes at the beginning of the episode and
0:15.8	throughout the episode was so deafed, it only we could have done it.
0:20.1	All right, it's Thursday, April 7th, 2022. This is episode 210. This is the token CEO podcast.
0:29.7	I'm American Ardini. I'm the CEO of Barstool Sports. Here's stuff that's happening around here,
0:34.8	so Loud Sean has left. Loud Sean, I think, has been here about five and a half years, so Loud Sean
0:41.6	led our production group. He's gone and taken what he describes to be a dream job opportunity
0:47.9	in the MMA space, which I'm always psyched when somebody leaves for a big dream opportunity.

1:29.9	continually upping their game and changing how they did things. The criticism of Loud Sean was
1:36.4	that he delegated everything. The morale underneath him was really, really bad. One of the things that
1:43.6	after we started to see people leave was like, did this feedback ever make its way into anyone?
1:48.4	Did we ever do anything about this? Because I think when you have people who have bad morale or
1:55.0	low morale, you got to look to the manager and instead of looking to the manager and solving
2:01.2	more systemic things, we just hired more producers and threw more money at people, which really
2:06.3	only served to complicate the issue and make things in some cases worse. I'm happy for him.
