Silverfish: Business Unusual
Though Big D & Bubba’s Derek “Big D” Haskins and
Sean “Bubba” Powell have been teamed for more than two
decades and will celebrate 22 years of syndication next week,
the pair and producer Patrick Thomas
did not set out on their own until eight
years ago (CAT 9/10/13). Thomas and
Jessica “Carsen” Humphreville, who
now serve as Pres. and Dir./Programming
of Silverfish Media, respectively, join the
duo in sharing the company’s story – which
most recently celebrated adding WKDF/
Nashville as an affiliate.
Derek Haskins “Everything started with
