Episode 1 – NBC 30 Rock: Where the Merlins Story Began

Merlins Podcast: Knights of Sports

Before Merlins became a world a world of films, immersive experiences, and global sports storytelling, there was the beginning at NBC’s 30 Rockefeller Plaza – a two-part movie, a first real collision with broadcast television and a moment that changed everything.

Episode 1 of the Merlins Podcast opens inside the birthplace of modern broadcasting — where a young idea collided with one of the most powerful media institutions in the world. What began as a simple opportunity quickly became a lesson in storytelling, access, pressure, and belief.

This first episode chronicles the origins of the Merlins journey: the rooms, the people, the risks, and the realization that sports is not just competition — it is cinema, culture, and mythology in motion.

NBC 30 Rock was not just a building.

It was a proving ground.

And this episode marks the first page in the Merlins Journal.
