Most of Meadowlark Media’s recent additions might include big names like Jemele Hill, Mike Schur, and Adam McKay, but the projects they’ll be working on have yet to be developed. So the new content venture from John Skipper and Dan Le Batard probably needed to add some established properties to its roster of talent.
