William D. Cohan joins Matt this week to talk about the continuing battle for control of Paramount as Edgar Bronfman Jr. just made a last-minute bid
Puck’s William D. Cohan joins Matt to discuss the never-ending battle for control of Paramount, which has been further complicated by an eleventh-hour offer for Paramount from billionaire Edgar Bronfman Jr. Matt and Bill explain who Bronfman is, simplify the complicated details of his pitch, and decide whether Bronfman’s or David Ellison’s deal is better (03:33). Matt finishes the show by breaking some news about the return of the hit Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso and making a prediction about its lead character in Season 4 (23:49).
