Antonio Enriquez

I build shows people come back to.

Executive Producer  •  Showrunner  •  Editorial Video Producer

I develop and lead editorial video and podcast shows, shaping everything from format and talent preparation through production, post, and audience strategy. My work focuses on turning strong personalities and editorial ideas into repeatable shows built for YouTube, audio, and social platforms.

Featured Work

Power Lines

A weekly media-news show hosted by journalists Oliver Darcy and Jon Passantino.

Showrunning Editorial Planning Host Preparation Format Development Editing YouTube Strategy

I lead weekly editorial planning, shape episode structures and discussions, prepare the hosts, oversee post-production, and develop the titles, thumbnails, clips, and publishing strategy around each episode.

I work with Oliver and Jon to translate their original reporting into focused, standalone segments built for YouTube audiences.

I also developed and edited a paid YouTube acquisition campaign that helped generate more than 80,000 subscribers at an average cost of less than $0.50 per subscriber.

Oddball with Amin Elhassan and Charlotte Wilder

A daily sports and culture show produced for Meadowlark Media and DraftKings Network.

Showrunning Recurring Segment Development Host Direction Editorial Planning Production Leadership

I led a team of producers, editors, and talent in producing four original episodes each week. Each featured timely, personality-driven segments developed around the day's sports and culture stories, all created under a daily production deadline.

When a co-host had a last-minute emergency and could not appear, we utilized a novel and totally not threatening novel technology: A.I. We created an AI alter ego named "Al-Gorithm" to fill in. We turned the production problem into a distinctive comedy segment that became one of the show's strongest-performing social clips.

I also developed and produced recurring and standalone formats:

I hosted an NBA-themed debate where both hosts parodied the Kamala Harris–Donald Trump Presidential debate from that week (simpler times).

Hopped on a viral editing trend while covering an otherwise uneventful NBA Draft. It became one of the show's stronger-performing posts.

I developed a recurring trivia format that put a new spin on the traditional author interview while also allowing us to bank content and reduce our weekly shoot schedule from four days to three.

Hungry Dogs with James Patterson

A weekly interview show built around James Patterson's curiosity, humor, and relationships with prominent writers and cultural figures.

Format Development Talent Direction Recording Post-Production Leadership Segment Development Publishing Strategy

I worked directly with James to translate his conversational interview style into a repeatable weekly podcast and video format. I directed recording sessions, led post-production, and created segments around James and each guest's personality.

James wanted an opportunity to respond to his critics, so I created the Hater Hotline, a recurring segment in which he reacted to voicemails from "haters." The resulting videos outperformed the show's typical social clips.

Becoming a Fighter with Megan Olivi

A profile series exploring the experiences that shaped UFC fighters before they reached the organization.

Original Concept Development Pitching Writing Talent Collaboration Production

While showrunning the UFC's flagship podcast, UFC Unfiltered with Jim Norton and Matt Serra, I pitched an original profile series about the lives and experiences that shaped fighters before they reached the UFC. After the concept was approved, I worked directly with Megan Olivi to develop, co-write, and produce the series.

Additional Credits

The Stephen A. Smith Show

Showrunner

Led a team of editors, engineers, and producers to produce Stephen A. Smith's solo video livestream and podcast.

Dear Schuyler

Showrunner and editor

Worked directly with Schuyler Bailar, the first openly transgender athlete to compete on an NCAA Division I men's team, on a show exploring identity, transition, relationships, and the lived experiences of transgender people.

What I Do

Show and Format Development

Defining the audience promise, editorial structure, recurring segments, host role, and multi-platform potential of a show.

Editorial Leadership

Running planning meetings, preparing talent, shaping stories and interviews, directing creative teams, providing feedback, and maintaining editorial standards.

Video and Audience Strategy

Developing YouTube packaging, clips, visual formats, and programming changes informed by audience behavior and performance.

Production Systems

Creating workflows, staffing plans, editorial calendars, review processes, and scalable standards that allow creative teams to do their best work.

How I Work

Strong talent deserve strong formats. I believe the best shows combine a clear creative point of view with a production system that gives talented people room to do their best work. I focus on establishing the audience promise, defining how the format works, and building a process that allows the team to execute consistently without making the finished show feel mechanical.
