What an incredible day we had on Capitol Hill yesterday! Our CEO Michael Sanchez and CIO Marc McCollum were joined by six Raptive creators—Kimber Matherne of Easy Family Recipes, Lindsay & Bjork Ostrom of Pinch of Yum, Toni Lipsey of TL Yarn Crafts, and Darin Blue & Kevin Blue of Country Rebel. Moderated by PBS Chairman Larry I., we had an engaging discussion on how they transformed their passions—from food to country music to crochet—into thriving businesses, the value their work brings to audiences, and what they stand to lose from unchecked AI.
