For Episode 150 of The Cody Springer Show, I take a trip back through one of the most important chapters of my podcasting and content-creation career: C&M Entertainment.Before there was The Springer Podcast Network, there was C&M.In Part 1, I go all the way back to 2017 and the creation of The Visionary Network, my first attempt at building a network of creators. I talk about what went wrong with that project, including the mistake I made with a 9/11 conspiracy video, and why I take responsibility for how that situation unfolded.From there, I tell the story of how Marcel Salcido and I decided to build something of our own, creating C&M Entertainment, multiple YouTube channels, and eventually the C&M Podcast.I also open up about what it was like living with Marcel, the difficult period he went through, the problems that eventually caused us to fall out, how we reconciled, and how our friendship continued to evolve.Eventually, we came up with what I believed was our biggest idea yet: turning C&M Entertainment into an episodic YouTube television show.And that's where Part 1 ends.We'll get into the actual production of C&M Entertainment, Seasons 1 and 2, my life-changing accident, the eventual breakdown of our friendship, and what C&M ultimately taught me in Part 2 next week.This isn't an episode about attacking anyone. It's me looking back on an important part of my life with a much more mature and reflective perspective than I had when I originally discussed these events in 2021.C&M Entertainment was only one chapter of my story—but it helped build the foundation for what I'm doing today.
