LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y. — The division of SMAC Entertainment, founded by Constance Schwartz-Morini and Michael Strahan, that produces scripted and non-scripted television, film, audio and branded content for a wide range of networks and distributors has launched a new podcast network in partnership with a unit of Sinclair Inc.
The launch of “The Intersection” on AMP Media is being hailed as a “significant expansion of its storytelling ecosystem” by SMAC.
The network will launch with two flagship shows later this year.
Leading the initial slate is an offering from Pro Football Hall of Famer Terrell Owens and comedian, writer and producer Chris Spencer. In another offering, Strahan and Schwartz-Morini will interview “the world’s most celebrated icons, executives, and the unsung heroes behind their success for candid cross-industry conversations about leadership, entrepreneurship, and reinvention.”
For its part, AMP Media will add “The Intersection” shows to AMP’s’ lineup of podcasts including The Triple Option with Urban Meyer, Mark Ingram II and Rob Stone, Unfiltered Soccer with Landon Donovan and Tim Howard, Throwbacks with Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara, Post Moves with Candace Parker and Aliyah Boston, Cousins with Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady and Style of Play with Julie Ertz and Kealia Watt.
“SMAC has built an exceptional reputation for developing talent and creating compelling content that resonates with audiences,” said Rob Weisbord, COO and President of Local Media at Sinclair. “We’re excited to partner with Michael, Constance and the entire SMAC team to connect with fans in meaningful ways and create new opportunities for brands through the power of AMP’s distribution and media platforms.”
Sinclair launched AMP Media in January 2025 as “a dynamic new brand focused on non-news content and original programming.”
