Erik Bragg of ETN
« on: September 20, 2018, 12:43:42 AM »


So, Chris Haslam's twin leaves ETN...

So Basically he is leaving because tehy're not wanting to do the shows he wants to do and he's feeling to much pressure from the subscribers...

In my opinion he wants to bail out before the whole thing goes to pieces... (what we all know will happen)

summarize it please, I don't want to give him the pleasure of an additional view, because he'd probably charge me for it

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.

Bragg is one of the least likeable guys I can think of in the current skate landscape. That Illegal Civ kid Mikey Alfred (sp?) is another one. Both cocky and haven't really contributed anything worthwhile IMO.

Compare them to someone like Rick McCrank - super successful on and off the board (now has two shows on actual television) and so humble.

McCrank is awesome, he deserves everything he has right now, and don't forget that he's in that canadian new movie

i've seen how this one ends. bearded guy talks his way into the royal court and ultimately, it becomes incumbent upon loyal skateboarders to take him out back and poison him. and stab him. and shoot him point blank in the face.

it's really weird that after the none of his ideas were working that the person they brought it wanted to change direction.

You mean to tell me that a not-fully-realized business plan based on content but void of content at launch but still charging people and demanding they wait for sub-par, cringe-worthy content is falling apart and the guy who was producing said content is out because they didn’t want to produce more of his shitty content and because he didn’t get along with an actual experienced business professional?

What a time to be alive.
