Live sports isn’t just about what happens on the field anymore. It’s about the infrastructure that makes every moment possible — in real time, at global scale.

In this episode of Changing Frequencies, sponsored by Lumen, host Josh Miely sits down with Rick Gibson, Vice President and General Manager of Vyvx Solutions at Lumen, for a behind-the-scenes look at how live sports production is being rebuilt from the ground up.

They break down:

• When live sports shifted from trucks and satellites to cloud and IP networks
• Why connectivity is no longer a utility, it’s part of the production itself
• How streaming has fundamentally changed distribution, scale and reliability
• What it takes to deliver content to millions of endpoints simultaneously
• How real-time data, analytics and betting are reshaping infrastructure demands
• Why latency, redundancy and network design are now mission-critical

This isn’t a highlight-reel conversation. It’s a deep dive into the systems, networks and workflows that power modern sports media and why the “backbone” of production is becoming the most strategic layer in the business.

Creators aren’t just influencers anymore. They’re CEOs, production studios and media companies rolled into one.

In this episode of "Changing Frequencies," host Josh Miely sits down with Dylan Huey (CEO of REACH), Nicki Sun (filmmaker and founder of Nicki Sun Media) and Travis Keyes (commercial photographer and former APA president) for a candid, business-first conversation about what it really takes to build a sustainable creator enterprise.

They break down:

• When content creation becomes a real business
• How creators underprice themselves (licensing, scope creep and trust transfer)
• What brands misunderstand about audience value
• The difference between viral and shareable content
• How AI is actually improving workflows — and where it creates risk
• Why the future belongs to creators who own their audience, IP and infrastructure

This isn’t a hype conversation. It’s a practical look at contracts, revenue models, recurring income, production standards and long-term positioning in a rapidly evolving media landscape.
