On how he came to learn about the Television Academy; on coming to work there right after the Academy split into the National Chapter (NATAS) and Hollywood Chapter (ATAS) in Fall, 1979; on being an academic with no prior experience administering awards or award shows; on the lawsuit between the two Academy Chapters and the key decision that the awards be given peer-to-peer, rather than through membership-wide voting; on some of the early controversies with the competition, specifically with the Daytime Emmys, which the Hollywood Chapter of the Academy administered for a period in the 1980s and '90s, and why that ended; on past Academy presidents Hank Rieger and Richard Frank; on how the "wheel" license agreement came into being, with different networks securing the exclusive right to air the Emmys each year, on a rotating basis; on the ongoing relationship with NATAS; on testifying at the arbitration which negotiated the official split between the two Academys and determined which categories of programming they would each administer; on how the rift and subsequent split with NATAS presented questions regarding which shows would be eligible for Daytime and Primetime Emmys; on how a legacy genre show like police procedurals from producers like David E. Kelley would be a Primetime show and could not overlap for Daytime Emmys (Ed. note: Dr. Leverence would like to note he misspoke here and meant David E. Kelley, not David R. Kelley); on a key meeting between then-ATAS president Jim Chabin and then-NATAS chairman Dick Thrall which was instrumental in reaching an agreement 21:32
