Adriana Trigiani's You Are What You Read

On today’s episode of You Are What You Read, we are excited to welcome Ari Emanuel to the podcast with his New York Times bestselling memoir, ROLL THE CALLS. Ari Emanuel is one of Hollywood’s most accomplished, feared—and funny—dealmakers who has some stuff he wants to get off his chest… He is the CEO and Executive Chair of TKO, the Executive Chairman of WME Group, and the Founder and Principal Investor of MARI. As Hollywood’s best-known super-agent—the inspiration for “Ari Gold” in the classic TV drama Entourage—he’s paid to speak for his A-list clients, not himself. Now, for the first time, the agent, the mogul, the fero­cious power broker, speaks for himself, about himself, and about the game of life in ROLL THE CALLS.
