Barry Diller ran, built, and often revolutionized ABC, Paramount, and Fox all by the time he was 49, making more legendary movies and shows than I can list… And then he really started making money. He bought QVC, and then went on a tear, investing as an “internet opportunist” in 150+ things over the next two decades. Expedia. Match. Angi. Tinder. The list goes on and on. But what’s most interesting is how he did it all: via “creative conflict,” instinct, and dogged, relentless action. We discuss all elements of his life, his drive, and his work. Enjoy!
