    The InFOCUS Podcast: Caroline Beasley

    "I'm really interested in seeing the latest and greatest with AI, and it's across the entire operation — not just content, but in the back office, where we can streamline our operation and become more efficient." That's what excites Beasley Media Group CEO Caroline Beasley the most about her attendance at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show, CES 2025, in Las Vegas. What else is top-of-mind for the leader of a radio station ownership group with properties in markets such as Detroit, Boston, Tampa-St. Petersburg, and Boston? "It would also be irresponsible if I were to go all the way out to CES, with all of the Auto out there, and not look at the latest trends since Auto is one of our largest platforms that we distribute content on," she shares in this InFOCUS Podcast, presented by dot.FM, in a fresh conversation with RBR+TVBR Editor-in-Chief Adam R Jacobson.
