The Attention Shift – Détails, épisodes et analyse

DAZN’s $1B play for the FIFA Club World Cup isn’t just about broadcast rights—it’s about creators. With 100 digital stars tapped into a combined audience of 32 million, DAZN is betting big on creator-led content to drive engagement. Think docuseries like Through Ball and Chasing the Trophy, a creator house in Miami, and a global push that spans the U.S. to Spain.

But here’s the tension: are rights holders genuinely evolving, or just outsourcing their youth strategy to influencers? Is this the future of fandom, or a shortcut that risks missing the point?

In this episode of The Attention Shift, we get into it—how creators are reshaping the game, why legacy sports media is struggling to talk to Gen Z, and what success (or failure) really looks like when the creator economy meets billion-dollar sport.

In this episode Jo, Ed and Lee break down PMG's five forces and how it's changing fandom.

The trio will take on questions like "How is Baller League connecting with Gen Z as traditional sports struggle?" while digging into whether sports can adapt or if it'll take a complete new rule book to engage new age fans.

With Gen Z more loyal to individual creators and athletes than they are to actual teams, creators becoming the new broadcast networks, and athletes turning into media brands. Can sports handle this shift?

In this episode of The Attention Shift, hosts Lee Rabourne, Ed Abis, and Jo Redfern dive deep into the multi-billion-dollar question that is defining the future of sports: Who owns the modern sports fan's data?
