Bloomberg Media is introducing an exclusive new conversational series titled “Post Credits,” featuring Ian Schafer as its host. This program, an initiative from Ensemble, a division of Hoorae Media, will delve into discussions with leading creators, executives, entrepreneurs, and cultural figures, exploring the dynamic interplay between the creator economy and the entertainment industry.

The inaugural episode of “Post Credits” will highlight an interview with Tefi Pessoa, widely known as the host of “Love Island: Aftersun” and an advice columnist for “The Cut.” The series will also showcase a diverse array of guests, including Laura Correnti, founder and CEO of Deep Blue Sports + Entertainment; Kid Mero, comedian and host of HOT 97’s “Mornings with Mero”; Quincy Moore, president and CEO of New York or Nowhere; Issa Rae, an Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated actress, writer, producer, and co-founder of Hoorae and Ensemble; Shana Stephenson, chief brand officer for the New York Liberty; Kayvon Thibodeaux, linebacker for the New York Giants; and Christian Tom, founder of AND Media and former White House Director of Digital Strategy. The show is scheduled to premiere on September 8th at 8 p.m. ET on Bloomberg Originals, accessible via platforms such as YouTube TV, Samsung TV Plus, Prime Video Channels, LG Channels, and Tubi. Additionally, the first season will be broadcast on Bloomberg Television at 10 p.m. ET on the same day.

This new series capitalizes on Bloomberg Media's rapidly expanding digital presence. The company recently reported a record-high cross-platform digital video and streaming viewership of 73.7 million in May 2026, marking a 44% increase year-over-year. This growth underscores the increasing demand for content that bridges diverse industries and engages a broad audience, reflecting Bloomberg Media's commitment to delivering insightful and relevant programming in an evolving media landscape.

This new venture by Bloomberg Media not only enriches its content offerings but also underscores the growing significance of thoughtful dialogue at the convergence of creativity, business, and culture. By providing a platform for prominent voices to discuss critical industry trends, “Post Credits” aims to inspire innovation and foster a deeper understanding of the forces shaping modern entertainment and digital economies. It is a testament to the power of intelligent discourse in an increasingly interconnected world.
