Here's Me, Calacanis and Scooby-Don't Yammering on About Tech Stuff

If you have absolutely nothing to do tonight, here’s “This Week in Startups,” the online show by Jason Calacanis, to watch.

Along with me, the other guest was Robert Scoble — whom I have nicknamed Scooby-Don’t (a term of endearment) and whom Gawker just described as an “overpaid manbaby technologist” (not meant as a term of endearment). As it turned out, it was a lively discussion about a wide range of topics.

Those include: Some jerky blog posts that were written by some dopey techies about homeless people in San Francisco; the New York Times editorial calling for some kind of clemency for NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden; what’s up with our new website, Re/code; and other various and sundry techie things.

It’s actually a good discussion, though I had no idea Scoobs was wearing those goofy googles — for which I might have teased him mercilessly.

Here it is:

We're here to shed some clarity

One of our core beliefs here at Vox is that everyone needs and deserves access to the information that helps them understand the world, regardless of whether they can pay for a subscription. With the 2024 election on the horizon, more people are turning to us for clear and balanced explanations of the issues and policies at stake. We’re so grateful that we’re on track to hit 85,000 contributions to the Vox Contributions program before the end of the year, which in turn helps us keep this work free. We need to add 2,500 contributions this month to hit that goal. Will you make a contribution today to help us hit this goal and support our policy coverage? Any amount helps.
