My favorite links from this week.
- The New York Times is buying the production studio behind ‘Serial’ for $25M – TechCrunch – In a bid to further expand into the world of audio production, the paper of record has acquired the one podcast (other than your own) that your parents have definitely heard of. The New York Times Company issued a press release last night noting that has entered into an agreement to purchase Serial Productions, the podcasting house behind the wildly popular reported show of the same name.
- Crazy Auburn Concept Uniforms – Round 6 – Auburn Uniform Database – Auburn uniform concepts are always a divisive topic and seem to be a common mid-summer, no-sports content filler. Here at the Auburn Uniform Database, we do it a little differently.
- Memphis author’s book inspires $200 million Netflix action movie starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans – In what sounds like a dream deal for any writer hoping to increase his readership (not to mention his bank account), Memphis author Mark Greaney’s thriller novel “The Grey Man” will be adapted into a $200 million Netflix movie starring Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans.
