요약
You've all listened to music and watched TV but do you know who the people behind these culture shaping technologies were? How did they gain the courage to start companies like CBS, NBC, Warner Communications and Atlantic Records. What technology shifts played a part in bringing our entire library of entertainment into our pockets?

* We will discuss and learn about William Paley, the founder of CBS, how he shaped the company that shaped Television and Radio. We will also look at men like Clive Davis, Walter Yetnikoff and John Hammond who you may or may not know of who lead the world of music from behind the scenes for decades. They guided and managed the artists we all know and love today, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Billy Holiday, Bob Dylan, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, just to name a few.
