OOH …Here’s One Thing

If I were a guessing man, you would be guessing that I would be waxing eloquent on the recent Clear Channel announcement. Well, unfortunately, you would have guessed wrong. I don’t wax eloquent on anything, and other than what the news has already served up, Mubadala Capital Chases ‘Complexity’ Post Clear Channel Deal | Company Business News
I don’t have much to offer, other than the question of where are all the dreamers and schemers that have had their eyes on Patrick Media…whoops, I mean Chancellor Media//Martin Media/Whiteco/Eller Media/Universal Outdoor…whoops, I mean Clear Channel Outdoor now?
Over the last decade, I can count on more than 2 hands the number of individuals who told me it was in their gun sights. Now, a sovereign (sort of) fund from the UAE shows up with a relatively uninspiring number, and no one contests it? As I said, I wasn’t going to discuss it, so I will leave it there.
Instead, what I wanted to do is run something past you that I think not a person would not benefit from (how about that for a double reverse?). In short… It’s a short TED talk on ‘showing up‘. Well worth the watch. “Showing Up is a Contact Sport”

A little wuh wuh at the beginning, but work your way through it, and you will be rewarded. Looking forward to more “3” interactions with you in 2026.
“Keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel…
…You gotta roll, roll, roll, you gotta thrill my soul, alright
Roll, roll, roll, roll, a-thrill my soul
Da-ga-da-beep-a-con-ja-choo-chon, honk, honk, honk
A-don-ta, ee-cha-koo-na-nee-cha
Bop-a-loo-la-ree-chow
Bomp-a-kee-cho, ee-sonk-konk
Yeah, ride”
