Binge Watching With G3 Marketing President Eric Liebler

Liebler (l) has enjoyed honing his own business acumen by watching Lore's (r) "Startup Standup"Eric Liebler

This week, THE DAILY caught up with G3 Marketing President ERIC LIEBLER to break down what's on his watch- and listen-list. Some responses have been edited for clarity and brevity:

  • A great escape from reality right now is “SCHITT’S CREEK.” My wife and I really took to that. It’s been kind of our go-to once the kids are in bed to watch a couple episodes. I didn’t realize until the Emmy Awards that EUGENE LEVY’s son and daughter also are involved.
  • I’m a sucker for documentaries. I watched “CHALLENGER: THE FINAL FLIGHT” with my daughter while she was working on a school report on CHRISTA MCAULIFFE. It was really neat that I could give my perspective as somebody who was her age when it really happened.
  • More of a funny one but certainly meaningful to me was “CLASS ACTION PARK” because I grew up in that area going to Action Park with my friends. When we grew up -- and they say this in the documentary, but it’s true -- you didn’t know any better. You actually thought that that’s what amusement parks were. I got injured there many times.
  • I worked alongside Walmart U.S. E-commerce President & CEO MARC LORE in the past, and Marc now hosts a series on YouTube called “STARTUP STANDUP” in which he sits down with emerging entrepreneurs. To see him out there publicly talking about entrepreneurship, I love it because that is who I am.
  • Serial entrepreneur and Hawks Minority Owner JESSE ITZLER has started a new brand called “BUILD YOUR LIFE RESUME,” so he’s got a podcast. Jesse is all about living and maximizing each hour. He literally puts how many hours left in your life on a projection. It’s motivational.
