About this episode
Gary Vaynerchuk discusses the resurgence of analog businesses in the face of AI competition.
This is our full interview with Gary Vaynerchuk, recorded live on TBPN. We discuss his belief that the explosion of AI and zero-cost digital distribution is creating unprecedented competition online, why that shift is driving a massive resurgence in analog businesses like restaurants, retail, and live experiences, his new MasterClass partnership, and how entrepreneurs can win by playing both sides of the barbell, leveraging AI for scale while building real-world, experiential businesses that consumers are increasingly craving.
