Why Jacksonville

1.39M

TEUs moved through JAXPORT in fiscal 2025.

Jacksonville’s supply chain is not background infrastructure. It is one of the city’s largest stories, and the operators running it are largely invisible to the city they supply.

The first two conversations

Two episodes to open with.

  1. What really moves through Jacksonville.

    An operator on the cargo, decisions and infrastructure hidden behind an ordinary day.

  2. The bottleneck that changed the network.

    A logistics leader on the constraint that forced a better way to move goods.

What it costs

Nothing. Mabbly funds the first two episodes.

I co founded Mabbly, and it funds this because Jacksonville is worth documenting.

Hosting obligates you to nothing.

How we host

How this works

Two episodes first. The season is earned.

  1. Step 1

    Conversation

    We talk about the show, the vertical and the people you want in the chair.

  2. Step 2

    Two episode pilot

    We produce two episodes end to end. Mabbly funds them. You pay nothing.

  3. Step 3

    Greenlight

    We decide together after episode two. If the guests you wanted said yes and the conversations were good, the show moves forward.

  4. Step 4

    Season

    Twelve episodes, two a month, across six months.

  5. Step 5

    The season is sponsored

    Mabbly continues as the sponsor, or advisor.TV brings in a category sponsor whose business belongs near that conversation. You never pay and you are never asked to sell it.

Nothing here promises a permanent show. A pilot earns a season, and a season earns the next one.

The conversation compounds

One good conversation produces the next one.

  1. Operator conversation
  2. Trusted introduction
  3. Next link
  4. Permanent archive

You lead the conversation. advisor.TV handles everything else.

  1. PrepareGuest research, subject preparation and the questions worth asking.
  2. RecordStudio, cameras, sound and direction in Ponte Vedra.
  3. PublishEditing, publishing and distribution, then the permanent archive.

Nobody builds alone.

The platform can be sponsored. The conversation cannot be bought.

One show. One trusted voice. Two conversations to begin.
