SUMMARY:
I watched the first 15 min or so trying to gather the full reasoning behind his departure. Basically what I gather is that ETN is a “network” like Netflix of whatever, Erik Bragg is the creative director who creates all the shows. ETN hired a “network guy” to help with their business and Erik didn’t mesh too well with him. Bragg was used to getting a thumbs up on all his content proposals and when the new “Network guy” came in Bragg’s ideas were met with resistance.
This whole departure seems pretty recent and the wounds seem fresh. His newest episode of “Get Lost” has yet to air (Sept 27th). Bragg speaks Like he hopes for the best for ETN but I’m catching a general vibe that he is sending a message subscribers that now it’s ok to abandon ship. I guess he ran into the 9 club guys recently and they were down to get the fresh scoop on the departure.
