Urban One

Cause remember our story I was talking about when I was managing Steve and I was just, I didn't know where to turn.

And I remember the person I went to at the time was Kathy Hughes, who owns Radio One and TV One.

And I can just clear as day sitting up there doing this interview with you.

I was in tears because I was just, tears because I finally found someone I could talk to that I felt wouldn't judge me and would kind of understand what I was going through and could guide me through the process.

Scott leads digital sales and streaming media at Monumental Sports and Entertainment, the company behind the Wizards, the Capitals, the Mystics, Capital City Go-Go, which is the G League affiliate of the Wizards, the Capital One Arena, and its own regional network and directed consumer platforms, Monumental Sports Network and Monumental Plus.

So before Monumental, Scott spent his career in digital and broadcast media across CBS, Odyssey, Sinclair, and Urban One.

And a fun fact, I'm excited to hear this anecdote from you, Scott, but one of your first jobs out of college was actually being an in-game DJ for the Capitals.

So, Scott, it's great to have you.

Love the radio stations that are moving in there.

It is, what's the name of the company? Urban One? Is that what it's called? Radio One, something like that? I don't know.

I thought they've been in there.

Yeah, that's what I thought too, but I don't know.

I, my, I, and I didn't know where to turn.

And I remember the person I went to at the time was Cathy Hughes, who owns Radio One and TV One.

And I, I, I, I can just clear as day, sitting up here doing this interview with you, I was in tears because I was just...

Tears 'cause I finally found someone I could talk to, that I felt wouldn't judge me and would kinda understand what I was going through and could guide me through the process.

So, yeah, Lonnie's a good guy, man.

And also Radio 1, Urban 1, donated a lot of money to that museum as well to make sure it happened.

If you remember, even though it's supposed to be government-supported, they're federally supported, they also solicited funds from outsiders because that's what the other groups do.

And I know Radio 1 made a huge donation as well.

Yay.

So next, what's going to happen next is that after he steps down in the end of the year, the Smithsonian operates outside the executive branch.

So one of the things I talk about in the book is helping people get a new mindset.

In fact, one of the things that I wrote about in the book is I have all these different radio shows, XM and my daily syndicated radio show on Radio 1 stations.

And I do a piece called Wake Up and Win with Dr. Willie Jolly, a one-minute motivational message every day that's very popular.

What station is

don't know.

That's right.

She has a syndicated radio show on Radio 1 called Get Up Mornings with Erica Campbell.

And I'm on that.
