About this listen

Netflix's recommendation engine reportedly determines eighty percent of what subscribers watch, but recommendation is just the beginning. Frankie Reel pulls back the curtain on how algorithms have moved from suggesting content to deciding what gets made in the first place. This episode explores the data-driven machinery reshaping entertainment from the inside: how streaming platforms analyze billions of behavioral data points to greenlight shows, how algorithmic preferences create feedback loops that homogenize storytelling, and how the shift from broadcast to streaming economics has transformed culture into a giant optimization experiment. The algorithm doesn't just predict what audiences want—it shapes what they want, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy where art becomes inventory and creativity bends toward machine-readable patterns.
