00:00Why am I wearing this getup? Well, I once went fishing wearing this jacket and I caught a striped
00:05bass at like two in the morning. One guy in Hollywood who is on vacation, not working today
00:11and has gone fishing, is David Zaslav, the outgoing president and CEO of Warner Brothers Discovery,
00:18who made $606 million for engineering the deal to sell the studio to Paramount Skydance. I don't
00:25know if it just goes straight. He is direct deposit. Maybe. Sources are telling me that Zaslav has gone
00:31on vacation. He is off the grid. He wasn't at the media event or the announcement to Wall Street about
00:37Skydance. People think he might get a job with his old mentor, John Malone, the cable pioneer behind
00:43Liberty Media, who Zaslav reportedly still texts every day and who advised him on a number of big
00:50deals at Warner Brothers, including negotiating with the NBA for their TV contract. One thing
00:56that's also for sure we hear is that he bought this giant famous mansion in LA when he moved out
01:02there
01:02to take over Warner Brothers. It was owned by Robert Evans, the producer and former head of Paramount,
01:08actually, who made movies like The Godfather. Maybe you'll spot him at Air One.
