Ep 11: The Lost Episode: We Almost Changed Our Streaming Name
Build Black Show | Business Growth & EntrepreneurshipShow Notes
Editor’s Note: This episode was recorded during a strategy conversation when we were considering the name Fan Fuel TV. Since recording, we made the decision to keep the name Black On Demand TV and move forward with the Black On Demand Mobile App because of our existing audience on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and our growing community base. We decided to release this lost episode anyway because it captures the real-time founder journey before our Juneteenth 2026 launch.
Episode 11: The Lost Episode — We Almost Changed The Name… Then Gave The Community Free Shares In this powerful lost episode of The Build Black Show, we share the behind-the-scenes conversation that almost changed the future of Black On Demand TV. Originally recorded when we were considering the name Fan Fuel TV, this episode captures the real-time founder journey of building a Black-owned tech company, launching the Black On Demand Mobile App, and creating a new opportunity for the community to receive free shares ahead of our Juneteenth launch. After deeper strategy and reflection, we decided to keep the name Black On Demand TV because the brand already has a strong foundation through Roku and Amazon Fire TV, along with a growing audience of entrepreneurs, creators, business owners, and culture builders who believe in Black media ownership. This episode is about more than a possible name change. It is about Black ownership, community equity, media power, mobile technology, entrepreneurship, and building a platform that gives our stories, businesses, and voices a place to grow. We decided to release this lost episode because it shows the raw, honest process behind building a movement in public. The name almost changed, but the mission became even clearer. Topics covered: Black-owned tech, Black On Demand TV, mobile app launch, free community shares, Juneteenth business launch, Black media ownership, entrepreneurship, founder journey, Black creators, Roku TV, Amazon Fire TV, and community ownership.
