New York City Media Star Peter Rosenberg on War, Modern Media's Issues, and Political Polarization
Manage episode 404767758 series 2923744
I’ve produced podcasts with Peter Rosenberg for five years. And if I could use one word to describe him, it’s PASSIONATE.
And that fiery passion, which he holds for things like hip hop music, sports, professional wrestling, his dogs, and broadcasting will undoubtedly shine through in today’s conversation.
However, this conversation was not the one I expected to have with him.
I rarely talk politics. I hardly read the news, so I don’t feel comfortable speaking of topics I know very little about.
But in the name of my own self-improvement, of getting out of my comfort zone, I accepted Peter’s willingness to speak so candidly about subjects he holds very near and dear to his heart.
So in today’s unique podcast, Peter and I begin by discussing his very busy schedule hosting TV shows/radio shows/podcasts for New York City’s Hot 97, ESPN, The Ringer, Wondery, and WWE. After that, Peter opens up about his addiction to social media and how the negative comments — ones like he just received from far right voice Candace Owens — can affect his self-image. Then, we’re led into a conversation about Joe Rogan’s podcast, which then opens up a Pandora’s Box of controversial topics I never discuss: Donald Trump, political polarization, and the ongoing war in Gaza between Israel and Palestine.
These are important conversations to have, and I'm grateful Peter and I got to have it in an open, honest, and non-judgmental safe space.
