You’ll find out pretty quickly that both myself and Keith are big
fans of Diller- he’s the guy who brought us Roots, and in so
doing he pioneered the introduction of the TV mini series- he
green lighted some of the best TV comedies- from Cheers to Taxi
to the Simpsons not to mention some of the best movies of the
80’s.

He also got involved in some of the biggest, most high profile
and dramatic media battles of the 80’s and 90’s. And then he
pivoted, - and he pivoted many times throughout his career
eventually becoming the main driver behind online dating- he got
in early with Match.com and later his company bought plenty of
fish, tinder and practically owned the dating sector.

And though it all, Diller was this calm, very classy guy- it
makes for a fascinating story, enjoy.
