What really happens behind the scenes of your favorite morning news show? In this episode, Marley chats with robe-wearing, celebrity-wrangling, TV wizard Phil Berman—aka the man who makes it happen at KCAL in Los Angeles.

They dish on:

  • The hilarious story of how a Whitney Houston segment launched his LA career 🎤
  • What guest bookers really want in a pitch (hint: don’t call!)
  • Why being nervous might make you a better guest
  • How to break into TV even if you’re just starting out (spoiler: Bakersfield > Hollywood at first)
