The Jay & Tony Show Show - Vertically Challenged
Two partners. One podcast. Zero patience for stale TV.
Hollywood talks a big game about "disruption," but the real shift is happening overseas, where short-form dramas, aka Verticals, aka Micro Dramas, are pulling in billions of eyeballs. These snack-sized soap operas are addictive, unstoppable, and reshaping how stories are told.
We're digging into why Verticals are both Hollywood's blind spot and its golden ticket, what creators and execs need to understand fast, and why the next generation of creators is building a whole new playbook.
