Here are excerpts from two of our favorite episodes of Recode Decode, originally published in November 2017 and June 2019. In the first part of the show, Recode's Kara Swisher and SKDK's Hilary Rosen talk to then-Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams about how tech has changed state politics and why she was wary of Amazon's HQ2 competition. Then, in a live interview from the 2019 Code Conference, Kara and Vox.com's Ezra Klein talk to Abrams and her former campaign manager Lauren Groh-Wargo about their controversial loss in the 2018 elections and the voting rights group they started in the aftermath, Fair Fight. Featuring: Stacey Abrams (@staceyabrams), Fair Fight co-founder Lauren Groh-Wargo (@gwlauren), Fair Fight CEO Hosts: Kara Swisher (@karaswisher), Recode co-founder and editor-at-large Hilary Rosen (@hilaryr), SKDKnickerbocker vice chair and TimesUp Legal Defense Fund co-founder Ezra Klein (@ezraklein), , Vox.com co-founder and editor-at-large More to explore: On Reset, Arielle Duhaime-Ross explores why — and how — tech is changing everything. On Recode Media, Peter Kafka interviews business titans, journalists, comedians and podcasters about the collision of tech and media. On Pivot, Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway talk about the big tech news stories of the week, who's winning, who's failing, and what comes next. And on Season 1 of Land of the Giants, Jason Del Rey chronicled the rise of Amazon — and now, on Season 2, Peter Kafka and Rani Molla are examining "the Netflix effect."

Read the complete transcript on the Sales Game Changers Podcast website. Victor Hoskins is the President CEO of the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority. Prior to taking over this role he had a similar position with Arlington County.  On today's program, he details the steps he and the team took to win one the biggest economic deals ever seen. VICTOR'S FINAL TIP TO EMERGING SALES LEADERS: "First, if you listen to the client you can't lose. A lot of people do not hear the pain points, a lot of people do not pay attention to the client, they're so busy selling their product they're not listening to the client. The client has a need, find that need out. The client has pain, find that pain point and cure it. And second, you do nothing alone. Sales is a team sport. "Do not go out alone, do not pitch alone because you need somebody observing while you're working and you need somebody working while you're observing."

Michael Hoffman, president of GovernmentCIO Media, discusses the results of an upcoming survey on sentiment for technology consumers in the region, as well as how companies are scrambling to take advantage of Amazon's HQ2 plans.

Lt.

8:46 AM 02/26/2019 | EditorialDerek Hunter | Contributor On the show today, we count the way in which the political left has lost their collective minds. Sen. Bernie Sanders wants control over everything, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to spend almost $100 trillion, and former Vice President Joe Biden demands no brown M&Ms in his dressing room. Also, activists in Virginia watched NYC chase away Amazon and 25,000 jobs and are trying to replicate that, Senate Democrats vote to keep infanticide, and a gay rights activist is charged with burning down his own house in a fake hate crime. We cover it all on today's show. Listen to the show: In a CNN town hall, Bernie Sanders accidentally admitted he's looking to strip health insurance from the millions of Americans who are happy with their private plans in the name of the collective good. In exchange, Sanders is promising the sun, the moon, and the stars, and all for "free!" We've heard this song before and are still waiting for our $2,500 in average savings per family from Obamacare. We have the audio and the truth. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didn't attach a price tag to her "Green New Deal," possibly because she can't count. But it's more likely that it's because she doesn't want people to know. Well, a former director of the Congressional Budget Office made an educated estimate, and it's all the money in the world. No, seriously. Almost $100 trillion over 10 years in addition to what the government already spends. Destroying society and rebuilding it in the image of Utopia doesn't come cheap. A candidate for Chicago City Council described "democratic socialism" in surprisingly honest terms, admitting it "is about democratic control of every single facet of our life." All they want is everything, complete control of your life. Sounds "wonderful," doesn't it? Crazy Uncle Joe Biden has some very strict riders in his contracts for public appearances. One contract, for an appearance he was paid $150,000 for, leaked to the media. Turns out the questions had to be approved ahead of time, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. We have the details. Senate Democrats voted to protect infanticide Monday because they are wholly owned by the abortion lobby. They celebrated it somehow as a blow for "women's rights." The babies born alive after a failed abortion were unavailable for comment. Liberals in northern Virginia are trying to employ the same tactics leftists in New York used to torpedo the deal to bring Amazon's HQ2 to the area. It seems the idea of 25,000 high paying jobs and billions in new tax revenue doesn't jive with their plan for government dependence for the masses. It's really that crazy. Finally, a gay rights activist in Michigan is charged with burning down his own house in a fake hate crime attempt. This is what you get when you make being a victim something to aspire to. We talk about it all. Help spread the word about The Daily Daily Caller Podcast.

On this episode of C-SPAN's The Weekly Podcast: Amazon announced the location of its second headquarters on November 13th, splitting the so-called HQ2 between Arlington, Virginia and Long Island City, New York. But what's next? How did Amazon make the decision? Did the Virginia and New York governors give too much in tax incentives to get Amazon to come to their states? Our guest this week is Andy Medici, Money Reporter at the Washington Business Journal. He joins C-SPAN to about the future of Amazon's HQ2, how Amazon got so powerful, and why it chose these locations. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

a big news week demands a supersized episode, so the hacks reassemble (once again missing Rosemary, present only in digital spirit form) to properly tackle the bidding process for Amazon's HQ2, which this past week set its final "winning" locations as long island, virginia, as well as an extra facility in nashville. what does this expensive campaigning process mean for public-private relations in our highly neoliberalized present? which city debased themselves the most, to noo particular end? is it even possible to imagine a repurposed "nationalized"Amazon doing us any good? all this and less on our longest episode to date. song at the end: the replacements, "customer"

Facebook has been in the news lately for all the wrong reasons, so we checked in with Justin Bensan, Social Communications Specialist at the Rosslyn Business Improvement District, to talk about what's going on in the world of social media. This episode was recorded prior to Amazon's HQ2 announcement, but we asked Justin about what it means for a place like Rosslyn nonetheless.

By the end of this year, Amazon says it will choose the city where it will build the company's second North American headquarters. Since it announced the project, cities across the country have jumped at the chance to host the mega-office. Now, Amazon has whittled the list of contenders down to 20, including New York City and Newark, N.J. The campus, wherever it lands, will be a big prize. Amazon says it will bring 50,000 employees earning high median incomes in addition to $5 billion in investments for the city that is selected. As the final months of 2018 wind down, where do things stand with the hunt for the new headquarters, and will the winning city get a good deal considering the tax breaks and subsidies many are offering to lure the tech giant. This week on Money Talking, Charlie Herman talks with The Guardian’s business editor Dominic Rushe and Karen Weise, a Seattle-based technology reporter from The New York Times about the latest developments in the search for Amazon's HQ2.

For more than two decades, Jim Pebley worked to make Arlington a better place. Pebley is now retired and last year moved to a more leisurely locale in North Carolina, but not before receiving plenty of plaudits from across the Arlington civic and political spectrum. We decided to check in with Jim, see how he's doing and get his take on the current state of the county. We covered everything from the safety of Reagan National Airport, the cost of school construction, the potential of Amazon's HQ2 in Arlington and why he decided to decamp for elsewhere.
