Podcasts about Om Malik

Episodio a raíz de un estupendo artículo de Om Malik en el que observa que Safari –y el concepto de navegador en general– desentona en sus Vision Pro… y a partir de ahí nos conduce hacia una tesis mucho mayor: el navegador web tradicional empieza a ser un anacronismo en la era de la IA. Y esto también tiene implicaciones para Apple. Profundiza: Om Malik: Will A.I. Eat The Browser?

Leo Laporte, Harry McCracken, Christina Warren, and Lou Maresca discuss the evolving relationship between the tech industry and the incoming Trump administration, the future of TikTok in the U.S., advances in AI and its impact on everything from weather forecasting to web browsing, and much more. • Elon Musk and other tech billionaires are playing a major role in shaping President-elect Trump's transition team. The panel debated what this could mean for issues like antitrust regulation of Big Tech. • Trump has named entrepreneur and investor David Sacks as the White House AI and Crypto Czar. Sacks is an Elon Musk ally who has been critical of OpenAI. • The Hak Tuah cryptocurrency project suffered a 90% price crash shortly after launch amid controversy, in what may have been a "rug pull" scam. • Trump's pick to lead NASA, private astronaut Jared Isaacman, is expected to push the agency to partner more with SpaceX and the commercial space industry. But his close ties to Elon Musk could face political hurdles. • TikTok's future remains murky as U.S courts uphold a potential ban. The crew discusses the free speech implications and the role of geopolitics. EU also probes TikTok over Russian election interference. • Entrepreneur Frank McCourt's Project Liberty consortium is reportedly advancing a bid to acquire TikTok's U.S. operations, positioning it as a "people's bid." • The U.S. House is set to approve an additional $3 billion to fund the removal of Chinese telecom equipment like Huawei and ZTE from domestic networks. • Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is departing after a challenging 3-year stint. The chip giant's future strategy is up in the air as it faces intensifying competition, but the chip company did outline breakthroughs at a conference in advanced transistors, packaging, and interconnects that could help it regain a manufacturing edge. • OpenAI is running a "12 Days of OpenAI" promotion highlighting new AI models and services. The TWiT panel debated whether it's mainly a technical showcase or a monetization push. • Google unveiled a weather forecasting AI model that it says outperforms the leading U.S. and European forecast systems, especially for predicting extreme events. • ElevenLabs launched a beta product that allows users to create and edit entire AI-generated podcast episodes, sparking discussions about the impact on human podcast creators. • With the rise of AI, could we see a new generation of AI-infused web browsers that better understand our behavior? A long blog post by tech guru Om Malik explored the possibilities. • In the wake of China's "Salt Typhoon" hacks of telecom networks, the FCC is proposing new cybersecurity rules - but with a twist that would allow law enforcement backdoor access. • In the latest twist in the CSAM scanning saga, Apple is being sued for abandoning the controversial child abuse image detection feature, after previously being pilloried for trying to implement it. • A sleeker, more accurate definition of a "second" based on atomic clocks using Strontium instead of Cesium atoms could be coming by 2030, enabling new scientific breakthroughs. • Just in time for Christmas, a pair of the iconic ruby slippers from The Wizard of Oz sold at auction for a whopping $28 million, a new record for movie memorabilia.

Om is a former journalist, Partner Emeritus at True Ventures, and—in my words—a true internet OG. He was one of the first serious tech bloggers, and founder of Gigaom. We spoke about the current state of technology from both of our perspectives, and he shared where he believes the puck is going. We also went deeply into the topic of photography and creativity, which will be shared in next week's episode.

In this episode of the Exposed Negative podcast, Tom and Greg sit down with Raphael Orta, CEO of Capture One, to discuss the photography software company's past, present, and future direction. Topics covered include Capture One's transition to a standalone company, the controversial removal and return of the Export tab, balancing the needs of various photography workflows, expanding to iOS devices, implementing subscription pricing, and gathering user feedback to drive product improvements. The hosts feel reassured that Capture One is listening to user concerns under Rafael's leadership. Thank you for listening to The Exposed Negative Podcast.

Our guest today is Om Malik. Back in 2015, Om published an interview, or what might better be described as a conversation, with Brunello Cucinelli. It's a truly special conversation, and I know many people that find it's a life changing conversation. Brunello seems to be the rare, maybe the only, billionaire that has somehow found balance in life. He's deeply philosophical. He approaches business with empathy. He has a strong family life. And he cares deeply about the people that work under his namesake brand. Om captured all of this in a spontaneous afternoon in Italy. For those who haven't read the piece, I recommend you pause the podcast and click the link in the show notes. We wanted to speak to Om about that experience meeting Brunello. And truthfully, this conversation with Om turned into something much deeper. Please enjoy our conversation with Om Malik. Read Om's interview with Brunello Cucinelli.

Manton and Daniel talk more about Micro Camp, which will feature a conversation with Om Malik. They talk more about WWDC, Apple headset rumors, and our assumption that they won't be interesting to us. Finally, they appreciate that it's been 10 years since Google Glass debuted, and lament how little things have evolved. The post Episode 558: We Will Be Paying Attention appeared first on Core Intuition.

Om Malik interviews Ilya Fushman and Mamoon Hamid of Kleiner Perkins to hear how the two of them came together, the learnings they brought to the firm from previous experiences, and the meaning behind "Back to the Future." Recorded March 1, 2023 at the Upfront Summit.

Om Malik is a partner emeritus at True Ventures and a former tech journalist. Chris Tolles is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur and former CEO of Topix. The two longtime tech insiders join Big Technology Podcast to discuss the aftermath of Silicon Valley Bank's collapse. We cover not only what the bank meant to the tech industry — and how its failure will change the landscape — but why so many people were happy to see it fail, and sought to prevent a bailout. Join us for a nuanced discussion of Silicon Valley's place in society, and whether it can continue operating effectively with its favorite bank in shambles.

Our task is first to discover the nature of our summons, then to follow it.[11:00] We schedule time to think. Most people schedule themselves like a dentist. It's so easy to get so busy that you no longer have time to think- and you pay a huge price for that. —— All I Want To Know Is Where I'm Going To Die So I'll Never Go There: Buffett & Munger – A Study in Simplicity and Uncommon, Common Sense by Peter Bevelin. (Founders #286)[14:00] Try to be your son's teacher until he's ten years old; his father, until he's twenty; and his friend, for the rest of his life.[14:00] The problem is not getting rich, it's staying sane. —Charlie Munger[18:00] What an astonishing thing a book is. It's a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you're inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic. —Carl Sagan[23:00] Postponing the reward increases the appreciation, a fact that has been forgotten in the current culture of impatience.[29:00] I could see the humiliation in my father's eyes. His teary eyes were the source of inspiration for my life.[33:00] I have always been firmly convinced that in order to successfully stand out you need to focus on one single project representing the dream of your life.[36:00] A young man with no money and tons of enthusiasm.[41:00] Ralph Lauren: The Man Behind the Mystique by Jeffrey Trachtenberg.

This week @bhorowitz of A16Z and David Weiden of @KhoslaVentures talk about culture as a catalyst for a healthy company. @SamirKaji talks about the importance of emerging seed investors, and @HunterWalk discusses the importance of angels with operating experience to a CEO. @Om Malik and @BGurley talk about survival techniques during downturns. How Unicorns are Born? That is the common theme.

I'm excited to bring my good friend Om Malik back for a third round of Panic. Om is a partner at True Ventures, a $2B venture capital firm in San Francisco. They have made over 300 investments including WordPress, Peloton, Fitbit, and Blue Bottle Coffee. He's a super smart guy to talk to. He worries about the future, invests in the future, and talks about the future. It's important to talk about the future especially when the current situation is bleak – with a tech crash and valuations coming down. I don't think there's a panic, we're just witnessing the end of an era. We could whine about it, or we could look past it and figure out where technology is going next; which is what I'm doing. I don't think what's worked for me over the last 12 years will work going forward. Om is here to help me sort it out.  Guest - Om Malik, Partner Emeritus at True Ventures  howardlindzon.com, trueventures.com, om.co Twitter: @howardlindzon, @PanicwFriends, @trueventures, @om, @knutjensen  linkedin.com/in/ommalik #fintech #invest #investment #venturecapital #stockmarket #finance  Show Notes: Introduction (00:42) Welcome Om (02:52) The world aligning to new technologies (04:01) Valuation and tech decoupled (04:51) The core thesis hasn't changed (6:06) Today tech is bigger, bolder, more impactful (07:26) 5 trillion dollar companies created in the last 12 years (07:37) The unknowns make the future of tech exciting (08:43) Moving towards a 3D interface with data (09:38) Apple M1 chip changes everything (10:02) Identity and Authentication are key (14:14) Understanding the future of tech (16:07) Fixating on ‘labels' instead of the tech (17:55) The digital wallet is the future (18:33) The ‘MetaMask' of the future may come from Apple (19:28) The future doesn't have to be Instagram and Twitter (20:31) Trust and Big Tech (21:54) Apple is one Tim Cook away from things falling apart (22:01) The disappearance of the App store (22:44) The wallet is tightly connected to your Smartphone (23:16) Policy always lags tech (24:15) The ‘Wild West' analogy for Web3 (25:57) Software is important, authentication will be key (26:32) Distinguishing between the artificial and real ‘us' (27:52) Metaverse is a euphemism for next gen tech (29:12) How will China define the future (30:11) Globalization versus Deglobalization (30:44) End of one-size-fits-all tech (31:32) The current reality of centralization (32:44) Twitter is social media marketing (33:17) Small subsets of decentralized social networks (33:49) Opportunity comes after a crisis (36:47) Silicon Valley is a state of mind (37:24) Closing thoughts (39:08) Wrapping up (41:55)

Welcome to another episode of Wild and Precious Conversations. This week it’s just me talking about how our environment affects our emotional well being…and stuff we can do to get stronger. As I researched this episode, lots of familiar favorite people ventured into my consciousness. A man named Dr. Bruce K Alexander, who famously led the “Rat Park” experiments at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby British Columbia. A priest named Father Greg Boyle, who run the largest gang rehabilitation and reentry program in the world. Joseph Henrich, who wrote a book called “The WEIRDest People in the World: How the West Became Psychologically Peculiar and Particularly Prosperous”. And Roy Baumeister, whose research into self control and willpower I find fascinating.The story I want to tell about our culture, the breakdown of our culture and what that means for us required me to lean on a few (all white male) researchers and activists who I feel have done the important work in this area. So be it this time. This year began, if you will remember, with wildfires in Australia and the imminent extinction of the koala bear.At the time, I remember the uncertainty. The tiptoeing into 2020. Our local community suffered from overdose deaths in our small town that forced us to realize that our first responders (firefighters and one doctor, especially) work too hard in an uphill battle against an out of control problem.We then entered a pandemic. From there, like a bandaid being ripped off too quickly and too soon, we collectively confronted police brutality and racism. I remember the episode I did with my dear friend and mentor Dr. Stacee Reicherzer the week that Ahmed Aubrey’s murderers were arrested. We all, I feel, looked up and around us in a collective “What the heck?” moment. You can be shot dead while out for a jog in 2020?George Floyd’s murder awoke in us a conversation that is still going on. A loud, emotional conversation with family, friends, friends of friends. One of those conversations that we probably should have settled a long time ago, but since we didn’t, it’s going to be loud, chaotic, and more tense. But at least the conversation is happening. I think it’s ultimately positive and leading to a healthier culture.And then, the west coast of the United States caught fire.Have I left anything out?Against that backdrop, I tell about Bruce K Alexander’s research starting with Rat Park, and giving his rats an enriched environment.In this enriched environment, he was able to show that none of them overdosed on drugs. Some dabbled a bit, sure. As he says, “For all we know, maybe some rats like to party.” But none — zero — overdosed. When given an environment full of the things rats need and love: other rats, toys, good food, healthy places to play and live…they did not choose the drugs. They did not choose addiction.It’s safe to say (and yes, there’s mounds of research to this effect) that humans, too, in an “enriched environment” — a healthy culture full of the things humans need — do not overdose. Father Greg Boyle asks “How do we obliterate once and for all the illusion that there is an Us and a Them?”In his work, since 1992, he’s brought his parish together as kin. He’s taken what they already craved and already had — kinship — and strengthened those bonds. Creating an “enriched environment” where there wasn’t one, so that the people in his parish could (and do) thrive.So it’s possible. If it’s possible for one guy to start something in the poorest parish in Los Angeles and grow it into the largest gang rehabilitation and reentry organization in the world, then it is possible for us.It is possible for us to take what we’ve got, the hand we’ve been dealt, and create an enriched environment.Many of us have most likely been using “maladaptive coping mechanisms” for the time being. As placeholders until we learn how to get stronger, healthier, more adaptive so that we can make small changes in our environments — so that, actually, we don’t need to cope — we can thrive.If you have been using shopping, gambling, drinking another beer each night, wine o’clock, or whatever to cope, make sure and give yourself a huge hug. Way to survive. Way to keep going. Way to stay here, in the world, even when things look bleak.At the same time, if you’d like, might I throw you a life vest? A rope? Here are the pillars you can use to create healthy coping skills so you can actually thrive even when times are tough:Mental FlexibilityMindfulnessResillienceWhat I talked about:First, 2020 — Yikes.Second, Bruce K Alexander’s research.Third, Father Greg Boyle’s success.Fourth, Ways you can get stronger so that you can thrive in any environment and eventually make changes to your environment so you don’t have to cope.Notes:Bruce K Alexander website.Talk by Bruce K AlexanderRoy BaumeisterAtlantic review of Joseph Henrich’s book “The WEIRDest”Homeboy IndustriesTalk with Father Greg Boyle, David Vasquez and Ruben RuizBloom Where You Are Planted First Aid for GriefTrain for JoyOnward.

Om Malik interviews Matt Mullenweg. Matt is the founder of Automattic and co-creator of WordPress, one of the largest open-source projects in the world and a publishing platform that enables as much as 30 percent of the web. In this conversation, Matt discusses the beginning of WordPress, the growing importance of open source in the age of cloud, lessons he's learned as a founder, and – more optimistically – why he's excited about the distributed workplace, a core founding principle at Automattic.

Hello and welcome back to Equity, TechCrunch’s venture capital-focused podcast, where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines.This week we had the full Equity staff on hand to dig through the week's news, helmed by Kate Clark and Connie Loizos with Alex Wilhelm in the studio too. Plus, Om Malik, a former scribbler and current venture capitalist, joined us to riff on the latest.Before we dig into what we covered, a small note from the team: As this episode is going out before Uber will trade, we'll have another episode coming to you tomorrow after the madness. Stay tuned.Uber priced its IPO at $45 per share right before we hit record, so we first touched on the final pricing of what should be the year's largest tech IPO. Pricing towards the lower-end of its range, Uber could be setting itself up for a strong first day. Or, demand was lower than expected following Lyft's slide. Either way, Uber will trade tomorrow as a public company at last. Om predicts Uber and Lyft rides will get a whole lot more expensive in the next eighteen months, so hold onto your hats, the future for riders and drivers alike is... unclear.Next, we debated Harry's exit to Edgewell Personal Care. The direct-to-consumer razor supplier sold this week for more than $1 billion in a deal reminiscent of the Dollar Shave Club's sale to Unilever. From there, we spoke about the latest from the Luckin Coffee IPO. The news, in brief, is that its IPO is moving forward. Next up is pricing, we'll be sure to discuss any updates on the podcast.In big deal news, Carta closed a $300 million round. Connie has learned a lot about the business in recent weeks and it turns out, Om wishes he was an investor!Finally, Cruise's latest new round, and the capital needs of autonomous driving. As we all quickly agree, it's an expensive business and not one that will get cheaper. But, given that so many companies are working on the tech, we hope it works out. Especially Om, who doesn't have a driver's license, it turns out.All that and we had fun! Chat tomorrow!

Author of This is Marketing: You Can't Be Seen Until You Learn to See Interview starts at 13:06 and ends at 45:08 “I have a bunch of regrets about how Amazon is steering the boat these days. One of the things I think they dropped the ball on is they've had a hundred opportunities to make Kindle a social platform, and they have dropped it. And they shouldn't, because that is a really useful transformation--to be able to say ‘Where are the other thousand people who highlighted this? How can I have a discussion with them?' That's magic, and you can't do it.” (Photo by Brian Bloom) News Amazon earnings release Om Malik on Amazon earnings release Tech Tip How to load the Google Play Store onto your Fire tablet    Interview with Seth Godin Seth Godin's blog and The Marketing Seminar This is Marketing: You Can't Be Seen Until You Learn to See by Seth Godin Genius (formerly known as Rap Genius) commentary by Seth Godin on his book The Purple Cow What to Do When It's Your Turn (and It's Always Your Turn) by Seth Godin The Beginning of Infinity: Explanations That Transform the World by David Deutsch An Analog Novel (3 Book Series) by Eliot Peper Content The Killer Collective by Barry Eisler Music for my podcast is from an original Thelonius Monk composition named "Well, You Needn't."

Tech Tip from John Aga When installing the Google Play Store to your Fire tablet, it is important to do it in order as indicated in the article. I downloaded each one with a minute or two between downloads. I have a file manager app on my Fire tablet that not only displays the name of the file but the time the file was downloaded. You have to download them in a specific order then click and execute them in the same specific order. If you down load them a minute or two apart is easier then telling them apart based on their file name. It went smoothly when I did it. I was sure to download the file specified in the article even if I got messages that there was a newer versions available. I do not know if that was important or not but it was the approach I took. It will be important that Google Play Services and the Google Play Store are the first ones updated before downloading any other apps from the Google Play Store. Some time after I have installed the Google Play Store on my Amazon Fire 10" HD tablet, I started to get the message " cannot access the server" whenever I opened the Google Play Store. To resolve this I went into settings, then clicked on Apps and Games, then clicked on Manage All Applications, then clicked on the app Google Play Store. Then I clicked on "clear cache, clear memory, and force stop". I then rebooted my tablet and the problem was gone. If it should happen again I would just repeat these steps to clear it up. Another tech tip: On a separate subject I have notice that sometimes after I have updated one or more apps, one or more apps will move from the SD card back to internal memory. This is easily resolved. First click on settings. Second click on storage. Third all your settings should be set by default to include "install supported apps on your SD card". The other settings you want have on are to download movies, music, photos, personal videos, audiobooks and ebooks to your SD card. About one third down on the storage page the SD card and amount of storage is displayed. Just below that there is a command to "Move Apps to SD Card". Just below that it will either say "0" apps available or it will say if there are one or more apps available to move back to the SD card. Just click on that and it will automatically move any apps that moved back to internal during an app update and move them back to the SD card. This can take just a few seconds or a minute or two depending on how many apps there are to move back to the SD card. It is worth checking this once and awhile to ensure your Amazon Fire Tablet is using all storage in the most effective way possible.

This week I’m joined by Om Malik, a partner at True Ventures and my former boss. We kick off the show with a discussion of the New York Times’ investigation into app location sharing and Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s testimony before Congress. Both topics led to a debate about device privacy and what we should … Continue reading Episode 194: Is it time to address privacy in the Constitution?

Om Malik is someone who I have always looked to in order to make sense the impact that technology has on the world. He has an uncanny ability to bring a very human perspective to some of to the technology that so often seems to be cold and inanimate.  I had the pleasure of speaking with Om on the Branded Podcast recently. Heres what I learned:  Storytelling as a tech skill: Stories are a way to fire up our imagination. Behind every piece of technology, every piece of data is a human being and human beings all have a story to tell. We would be better served by always asking ourselves "What can technology do for the human being?" when we think about communicating new tech in a story.  Humanism a feature: We need to start thinking about how the technology will actually be used in peoples lives, instead of assuming that everyone is just going to start using it most effectively. We have had a very simplistic notion in society as technology as a tool, we have to become more open to society influencing technology itself.  The evolutionary process of thought: Writing as a means of thinking out loud. Words on paper can actually help you undertand what's going on in your head.  The difference in writing as a job and writing as a way of life is writing with an end objective in mind vs writing as "method of sharing my mind with you" a way to expand your thinking. Not just how many times your were right, but how many times have you changed and have you evolved your thinking.  The investor imagines the evolution of the problems in the world: Every product exists to solve a problem, but problems like people are not static, they evolve over time. The story supersedes the service: The longer the story the better the brand, it is about the consistency and longevity of the narrative. In that sense, the product becomes a representation of the brand's story. Which is not in the tactics of blog posts, or copywriting, it's about when someone sees your product, can they understand what your brand is all about, your unique point of view? For example, Madison Reed - you don't even have to be their customer to know their brand story.  Emmergent communities as a brand's true power: Word of mouth as the basic unit of trust and brand power and the ability for a product to inspire a meaningful personal narrative. Real branding is just that, when people have a positive emotional memory attached to a product or service. That is when you have these emergent communities arise, like with Peleton Bike  Luxury comes from rarity: Your time is very rare, your family, your experiences. One of one. Let's not conflate cost and money with luxury, the rarity makes things luxurious in its true sense, not the price.  For much more and the full episode, you can listen here.

When we decided to do a podcast, having Om on as an early guest was a no-brainer. He's probably best known to most people as the founder of GigaOm, one of the original tech blogs, but he's also written for nearly every outlet of note you can imagine, including the Wall Street Journal, the New Yorker, Forbes, and more. The guy is incredibly smart and thoughtful, without an ounce of pretension. But at the same time, he's got killer taste and a good sense of humor to balance everything out.

After ten years, Dropbox is going public. Om Malik and Chris Albrecht discuss the file-sharing company's impending exit, the troubles it's had adding premium features to what is basically a commodity service, and what's in store as the company must fight off giants like Google and Microsoft. Also: Om is reading The Grid, by Gretchen Bakke, PhD And Chris is reading The Elements of Eloquence, by Mark Forsyth

Om Malik is, of course, a legend. One of the first journalists on the “tech beat” in the 1990s, one of the first bloggers to “turn pro,” one of the driving forces behind the Web 2.0 time period, and one of the most trusted analysts of the technology industry in general, today he is a venture capitalist at True Ventures.

With the proliferation of cameras in modern smartphones, tablets, laptops and more, digital photography has entered the cultural mainstream. Many of us reflexively take selfies during travel and pose for memorable moments with loved ones. In 2016, Om Malik of The New Yorker wrote an article entitled "In the Future, We Will Photograph Everything and Look At Nothing," examining at our photographic tendencies and how the abundance of imagery has altered our relationship to it and to our memories. How do photographs become placeholders for memory? Why do we rely so heavily on imagery to capture and enrich narrative? How might we be missing out on lived experiences because of the cultural capital placed upon pictures?

Om Malik, the venerable entrepreneur, writer and now investor, joined TechCrunch editor-in-chief Matthew Panzarino for our second episode of The TechCrunch Podcast.

Joan Blades, MoveOn.org and MomsRising.org Co-Founder, discusses her new project, Living Room Conversations, tools for healing and collaboration following the recent divisive election season as well as strategies to change political dynamics.TRANSCRIPTSpeaker 1:Method to the madness is next and you are listening to method to the madness, a weekly public affairs show on k a l x Berkeley Celebrating Bay area innovators. I'm your host, Lisa Kiefer, and today I'm interviewing Joan glades. Joan was the cofounder of move on.org and moms rising dot board. Her current passion [00:00:30] is to bring the right and left together in conversation to find common ground so our country can move forward following this divisive election. The project is called living room conversations. Welcome to the program. Joan. Thank you so much for having me. Speaker 2:I remember you from move on.org and moms rising and you have a new passion living room conversations. Can you tell me what [00:01:00] that is? Absolutely. It's a opportunity to let people talk to each other across differences. Right? Left older, younger, you name it. Right now we're looking a lot at the right left issue. It's a very simple practice where two friends with different viewpoints each invite two friends to have a structured conversation. They've agreed to some ground rules, which are basically what you learned in kindergarten. Take turns, be respectful, be curious. Own your part of the conversation and then it, the structure is such [00:01:30] that the first couple of rounds are about who you are. Why do you join the conversation and some of your deeper values so that by the time you get to the topic you've chosen, you have a sense that these people you're sitting with are people you share values with in some ways and that they're good people. Speaker 2:Can you find those differences when you live in a city like Berkeley? Well, once it's reasons I started, this was because I was born in Berkeley and I lived other places in my twenties but I came back, it became clear to me at a certain point that I really [00:02:00] needed to understand what considered potential or thinking, particularly when I was at move on back in 2004 I was part of a group called green uniting America and I had the opportunity to sit down with people, grassroots leaders on the right and really have a relationship and conversation and better understand where they were coming from. You know, my question was at that time, why aren't you concerned about climate change? And at that time we were able to in 2004 2005 and at that time we were able [00:02:30] to have a really thoughtful conversation about it and honestly the line to not harden the way they have since that time. Speaker 2:By 2008 2009 I couldn't have those same conversations which said to me that, you know, we need to have that relationship first so that we can actually have a funny, you call it caused the hardening of the lines. You said 2008 2009 was it the crash? No, I would say it's the crash. So much as different topics get taken as partisan indicators [00:03:00] and you have to be true to that line. Warren more and I think we've become increasingly polarized over the last 10 years. A lot of people forgotten move on. Started midway in the impeachment scandal with Monica Lewinsky and Clinton and it was a common sense. Let's get back to business. One sentence, petition censure the president and get back to pressing issues facing the nation. And you could love Clinton or hate Clinton and agree that the best thing for the country is get [00:03:30] back to business because it was just increasing partisanship. Speaker 2:So we had, you know, thousands of Republicans delivering their move on petition two at that time. But unfortunately two weeks after an election where we worked very hard to get all sorts of people out, we had the congress impeach, it wasn't the most popular thing to do. And then, you know, we'd gotten hundreds of thousands of people active in politics for the first time in their lives and it just didn't feel right to go home at that point because good [00:04:00] citizens yet is electing people that reflect your values. And that's actually how move on ended up becoming more than a flash campaign because our original intent was just we'll help everyone communicate with them, move on is still happening, move on is still a very healthy organization with wonderful leadership and it's, it's working on the progressive side in just a certain way. Whereas your living room conversations, you're inviting everyone to the conversation. Speaker 2:Living Room conversations are me. [00:04:30] Add a whole set of partners from right to left agreeing that we need to have relationship, respectful relationship, have everybody's best ideas and you reach out to these people. I know one is a tea party person and did you personally reach out and say, I want to do this with you. One of my friends who was a conservative said, you know you should meet Mark Meckler who's the Co founder of tea party patriots. You're the CO founder. Move on. Wouldn't it be cool if you both had a living room conversation together? So this started no living [00:05:00] room conversations started with working with a group called changing the game to do a pilot project in test out what a simple conversation that would be massively reproducible would look like. As a founder. Move on. I really value grassroots engagement because when you get down to it, citizens are smart, they're caring, and if you give them a way to participate, they'll do so in a really valuable way. Speaker 2:And I think we lack the citizen voices that we really [00:05:30] need. If you look up this some time ago that you started this pilot 2011 and one of the people from changing the game, one of the conservative partners there became my partner founding Amanda, Catherine, Roman founding living room conversations because you really have to walk the walk doing this work. Tell me more about the goals of living room conversations. Well, the, the goal is to have good relationships with people with all sorts of belief systems so that we actually work together collaboratively [00:06:00] and collaborative. Problem solving is just infinitely better than adversarial problem solving. You need to go out to the congress and speak. Well, they haven't invited me. I mean just think about it. The issue of climate change is one where even if all the Republicans agreed, it was a huge problem at this point. Speaker 2:I would not trust the congress to come up with a good plan because they do it through adversarial engagement. To do really good problem solving. You [00:06:30] need to use everyone's best ideas. You need to be agile. So you try what you think is the best plan possible. And when you see things that are working, you go deeper there and things that aren't working, you s you know, you cut those pieces and that kind of creativity and agility isn't possible when you're in an internal flight. And right now we're seeing an internal fight. Yes. And I just finished Arlie Hochschild book strangers in their own land and I couldn't help but think it by the end [00:07:00] of it, it seems like progresses are always reaching out, trying to figure out a way to communicate with those that have very different ideas. Do you think they feel the same way toward us? Speaker 2:I don't see that same sort of reciprocity. It always seems like it's a progressive idea to say we need to talk. Well remember this is an organization that's half conservative than half progresses, right? Living Room conversations is not me. I'm one of many partners and I'm here in Berkeley. So, and honestly [00:07:30] I think on both sides there's been a great deal of rigidity that has been built in. And in fact, people want to fix it, the congress, and I want you to, but I believe Congress will be fixed and presidential elections will be fixed when we create a citizen foundation that has an expectation of respectful engagement in collaborative problem solving. So you started this pilot project, you're not still in the pilot phase. Wait [00:08:00] now. Okay. So tell me what some of your accomplishments have been since 2010 well, I think the most, one of the noteworthy conversations, especially for this locality is mark McClaren. Speaker 2:I did cohost a conversation in 2013 on crony capitalism where he brought two of his friends and I had two of my friends and we had this amazing conversation and I invited one person from the press, Joe carefully of the San Francisco Chronicle. And the following week that conversation ended up [00:08:30] on the front page top of fold and the San Francisco Chronicle. And that conversation led us to realize that we were in complete agreement. And when I say we, we and our friends that there way too many people in prison, the war on drugs is not successful. And we have to start using evidence based practices in the criminal justice system. That led to mark and I speaking, writing, you know, op-eds I wrote with Grover Norquist and Matt Cafe [00:09:00] and I had the opportunity to initiate a convening in 2014 of leaders on the right and left inside and outside DC because do you see a tighter, too different from dcs ciders in many ways on the topic. Speaker 2:And it ended up being the seed for a group called the Coalition for public safety, which is working on criminal justice issues where we're fundamentally in agreement with major organizations on the left and right. AFL CIO [00:09:30] and Grover Norquist group, you know, and it's funded by left and right. MacArthur Foundation, Koch brothers, Arnold Foundation Ford. This is meaningful. And if you recall, there was a time when someone in politics couldn't talk about reducing prison sentences, couldn't talk about all sorts of ways of improving criminal justice. That dynamic changed now. There's a whole huge amount of work to be done to improve the criminal justice system. [00:10:00] We've just created the opening where improvement can be made in the more real, like the recent election will hinder some of the progress you've made. It depends on how successful leaders on the right are in communicating with this administration that there's an opportunity to greatly improve our criminal justice system and our communities through having fair, better evidence based practices. Speaker 2:It has concerned me deeply when I [00:10:30] started hearing the old line or don't language, but I hope that that was just something that was happening in the run up to the election and that in fact, because there is so much more understanding now of how dysfunctional our criminal justice system has been in certain ways, that improvement will continue. That's, you mentioned crony capitalism. Can you expand on that just a little bit? Where were the areas of agreement? Ah, there was agreement on left and right that if the banks are going to gamble with our money, they shouldn't be [00:11:00] insured when they lose it and get to keep it when they make money. Yeah, that's not a uh, kind of deal we think is good for us. Stupid regulations. Nobody likes them. I think there's a segment of America that's just really annoyed with stupid regulations, especially in in our lease book that she goes into pretty great depth about the both the state and the federal regulations, you know, bad regulation is we have, we're burdened by this. So yeah, if we could make it, [00:11:30] all of us collectively easier to get rid of that which is not good and improve that which needs improving. We're in such a stuck place if we, when we're in good relationship with each other, a huge amount of becomes possible. Speaker 2:If you're just tuning in, you're listening to method to the madness, a weekly public show on k Speaker 1:a l x Berkeley Celebrating Bay area innovators. Today I'm interviewing Joan blades. [00:12:00] Her new project is living room conversations designed to build relationships and foster collaborative problem solving locally and nationally Speaker 2:to climate change as an issue of agreement. To me, that's such an important issue and one that affects everyone regardless. The climate change topic is a really deep one because it has many, [00:12:30] I have numerous conservative partners and they come from different perspectives. One of my partners is a techno optimist. He thinks the market and you know man, you know our traditional creativity is gonna solve this problem. One of my partners, Jacob in Utah is a Mormon and has not considered climate change a huge issue, but because we're in closer, you know, we love each other. He's a wonderful human being and [00:13:00] he's come to understand that climate change is the progressive and time story. And you can relate to a group that has an end time story and he's, he's right. It is our progressive end time story. It is one of them for sure. Speaker 2:But it's also because, and I can say to him, Jacob, even if there's only a 20% chance that we are destroying the future for our children and their children and the planet, that's unacceptable. I don't let my children play Russian [00:13:30] roulette. And plus, it's not necessarily when you say story that implies that it's sort of this, I don't know, a story when in fact, no, the, the Bible is real. I mean it's really effecting, you know, the Bible is the story that means the most to Jacob. That is not a diminishment that at all. It's a, it's a very respectful understanding of where I'm coming from. That it is my end time story. You [00:14:00] know, that's the deep story that Arlie talks about, right? Yeah. And he, he cares more about climate change now because he cares about me. Do they not see the, the effects of like for instance in Charlie's book that people who are experiencing the effects of, uh, whether it's chemicals in the aquifer or more high cancer rates, why can't they connect the dots? Speaker 2:Whether it's climate change thinking Arlene's cation, they do [00:14:30] connect dots. I think they see environmental pollution. But I think climate change is big enough that if your world and our world is, the community we live in sees it as nature's natural way of going through changes, it's very possible to see things that way. You know, if there's science behind what we're doing, we know that people make their decisions first [00:15:00] with their emotions and then their reason justifies it. So being in relationship makes all the difference in the world to how you hear someone. And if you live in a community that believes climate change is not a primary threat and you know the deficit is then all your instincts and their pretty primal are going to send you there. And in fact, if I send one of my conservative friends off to talk about climate and they talk about climate and the way I talk about [00:15:30] they are at risk of being shunned and on a primal level that is death. Speaker 2:You're shunned, you're out of the pack, you die. And that's the way it, it feels. So it's, it's not, let's talk about this divide just a little bit more because to me it's always been a socioeconomic problem. I feel like the, the coasts and major cities, people have jobs and slowly but surely these jobs and high paying jobs have evaporated from these regions that have become red [00:16:00] states. Why isn't anybody just coming out and saying it's a socioeconomic issue. You know? If you are feeling like you're less than your relatives on the coast because you can't afford to send your kid to a college that they can because your job isn't good enough. To me it's just, it's kind of the 99% again, the 1% who have everything and you know, I think some people are saying or telling the economic story and I think it's many stories. Speaker 2:There [00:16:30] are many threads to this and the more I've been engaged with diverse people across the political spectrum, the more I've seen that there isn't a right, there's a lot of different positions around the country and very different ways of looking at things that are not progressive. You know, sometimes we use the term trans partisan because bi-partisan doesn't begin to describe it. It's way too linear, [00:17:00] but it's all over the map in terms of where people's beliefs are. And the reality is when you have a conversation with someone, you're not going to transform their beliefs in a single conversation. What you are hopefully going to do is create some relationship, which opens them up to thinking about things differently. It's, it's about opening hearts honestly. And once we care about each other then many things become possible. [00:17:30] How many of these living room conversations are going on right now around the country? Speaker 2:Do you have certain regions? And you know, that's a great question. And since it's an open source project that's very lightly funded, we know about hundreds that have happened, but I know they've happened in east Africa and you know, I gave a talk in San Francisco a few years ago and came back the following year. I'm in the elevator with someone's, Oh our church. They really, it made a big difference. [00:18:00] It was really great. Again, my car tells me more, tell me, never got back to me. So the reality is when you create something that's just available to people, you don't have the data, don't have the data, but you know, are used to be that churches kind of provided that living room conversation. At least when I was growing up in the Midwest, people would come together for one reason or another, not necessarily a churchy stuff and talk. And it seems like there was a lot [00:18:30] more flexibility with people than there is today. Speaker 2:Do you think some of the social fabric being gone now, like the churches and the organizations that are no longer has had an effect on this? I think it's had a huge effect and I also think we've homogenized, um, [inaudible] that homogenized. I live in Berkeley, we have very little exposure to conservatives and they in turn are homogenized. Yeah. Because we're all more comfortable now and it's become impolite [00:19:00] to talk politics in many, many situations because politics have become so heated. And honestly when I see people talk politics very often they're just doing the talking points and you know that cartoon with the dog listening to the master and the master saying thing, the dog seeing blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Until we have relationship. Those talking points are like Baba, when's the last time you saw someone win an argument like that? You don't win arguments [00:19:30] and debates. Speaker 2:You may say you win debates, but in terms of true persuasion, true persuasion happens when you care about each other and you really want to understand and when that understanding happens, then you've got some room for creative engagement and when, when solutions are possible. Well, what are some of the topics that you're looking forward to this next year to take to some of these conversations? You've [00:20:00] talked about the three that you mentioned earlier. We certainly have the post election conversation, but we have 50 conversations up. Uh, one of the things I'm very excited about is all sides for schools and all sides for schools. Mike Conservative partner, John started all sides. That's a news resource that gives you news from left right and center side-by-side. Same topics. Sometimes that's, that's actually just a new service. And what happened is organically it started being pulled into schools and then [00:20:30] we had a living room conversation here in Berkeley a couple of years ago. Speaker 2:A Serena Weatherspoon was a cohost and it was a voter non-voter living room conversation because in 2014 in California, under 10% of 18 to 24 year olds voted under 10% that's like what's going on? So she had a conversation with tears. Then she wrote this wonderful blog about it that basically said, look, you know, I surprised we were actually in complete agreement. It's really questionable whether [00:21:00] voting is worthwhile. And school taught us more about the great Gatsby than how to vote. So you know, some tell on the seat point. Yeah. And they went to Berkeley high right here you have, you know, just half of them said that's not even worth it. And Half said, oh, I guess I should add, even though it was really questionable. This is a conversation a couple of years ago and she wrote about that and John and I were talking to each other. God, that's terrible. Speaker 2:Because you know, schools are the place where [00:21:30] we're supposedly paying for them to have an educated electorate. 18 to 24 year olds should be the most likely to vote, not the least likely to vote. What's going on. Something they look forward to doing. Yeah, and when he said all sides was getting pulled into schools and they were starting to work on a critical thinking curriculum, I said, you know, that's great. The other piece of that is we know that having relationship makes all the difference between whether people really listen to each other or not. [00:22:00] And schools teach debate, but they don't teach collaboration necessarily and how to really be great listeners. So the power of relationship. So what we decided to do is create this head, heart piece for the all sides and that's all sites for school. So it includes and relationships matter, living room conversation. Speaker 2:Now there's also the not school version, but for the school. Well, I'm really glad to hear that you're kind of targeting [00:22:30] a younger demographic. You're targeting everybody and you don't want to IX glued that group faith communities because yeah, the episcopal diocese of El Camino reality invited me to come for their spring convening and from that we now have a faith community living room conversations partner because she started using now multiple folks started using living room conversations in their congregations but she started using it deeply [00:23:00] and did some beautiful blogs about it and we realized that really every major faith, tradition, love thy neighbor is a key part of the tradition and what a gift for faith communities to take this role on. And so some are, and we are hoping this year because this year and next year because if anything is going to show us that we need to change our relationship with our neighbors and I'm saying neighbor in the very broad sense, [00:23:30] all those states where we're thinking we're really isolated from, we've got to break down those boundaries in three and a half years when we have a presidential election, I want to have both candidates be that my conservative friends would accept and be okay with so much more interest they would have for me the same. Speaker 2:Yeah, and that's because, because we're in with lationships with each other, we'd be demanding [00:24:00] of media that they treat people running for office with more respect. We faded miserable thing running for office. A lot of people I would like to run for office won't because it's not a place they want to be. You don't. When we care about each other, then we want us all to get to a place where we can, you know, be proud together of a precedent. I read a recent New Yorker online article about Silicon Valley's empathy vacuum. [00:24:30] It was by Om Malik. And I think that he touched on a lot of the things that you're talking about. He says that Silicon Valley's biggest failing is not poor marketing of its products or follow through on the promises, but rather the distinct lack of empathy for those whose lives are disturbed by its technological wizardry. Speaker 2:He encourages and empathy, um, for this industry and says that Silicon Valley could even become [00:25:00] a bigger villain in the popular imagination, much like the east coast counterpart Wall Street. I think this goes along with what you're saying and it may be a little idealistic. Yeah. I think we need to get a little idealistic here and really we're talking so seriously. The reality of these conversations is yes, you're a little nervous going into it, but it's actually a great experience because you meet these people that are lovely, and when you [00:25:30] live in a bubble with people that all agree with you, what happens is it amplifies your anxieties. It amplifies the divide. It amplifies the divide. And all of a sudden you find that these people that you've thought were so other aren't, they're kind, they're intelligent and they have some really different viewpoints that are challenging but holding the tension of our differences, that's a practice we can do. Speaker 2:I want to talk a little bit about your background. [00:26:00] You had a background in technology originally, is that correct? I was originally an attorney mediator. So mediation is my starting passion. All that makes sense. And technology just kind of happened cause less than I've had. You went from that to uh, a very, I call it political career. Well actually it went from that, uh, to Wes who is my husband. We played soccer together. He's technologically very adept and [00:26:30] he had a small company and we were best known for flying toasters and a game show called, you don't know Jack. So, but that was how we supported ourselves, which was really good. And I was the person that if I could read the, anyone could understand it. You know, I did everything in the company, but nothing technology wise other than if I could understand it. Speaker 2:Yeah. All right. This will work. And when did you start to move into to move on? Oh, move on with this total fluke, [00:27:00] six months into the impeachment scandal west and I are, you know, and I don't like polarization, I'm against it. And we're sitting in a restaurant on Solano Avenue hearing another crowd of people talking about, you know, how the impeachments just going on and on and we wrote our one sentence petition. Congress must immediately center the precedent and move on to pressing issues facing the nation. Sent it to under 100 of our friends and family. And within a week we had 100,000 people sign that [00:27:30] in 98 that was unheard of. And that's when I started learning about politics and communicating with leadership. And it's been an education. And I see you have an event coming up at Berkeley's historic Hillside Club, a u n Arlie Hochschild. Speaker 2:We'll be in conversation December 8th at 7:30 PM and that's here in Berkeley at 2186 Cedar Street. What are you going to be talking about? Harley Hook child and I are going to be [00:28:00] speaking about talking to strangers and she'll probably be talking about her new book which was nominated for National Book Award. Yes. And The New York Times bestseller now. Yeah. Strangers in their own land and, and you'll be talking about living room conversations. Yes. We're having a conversation about our adventures with people that have very different views than us and how really wonderful it is having those conversations. It makes our lives richer. Yes it does. Is there a website or how can people get Ahold of you? [00:28:30] Living Room conversations.org that's everything you need to do a living room conversation and 50 topics already. We're putting up more on how to get started and yeah, the whole concept is this is so simple and it's really about tapping your host and guests norms and re being reminded and reminding people of, you know, how we're supposed to act together is powerful and break bread together and people have a great time. [00:29:00] Well, Joe and I want to have you on this show in a couple of years and we'll see how, how this has gone. That would be really interesting. Thank you for coming on. You're welcome. Speaker 3:Okay. Speaker 1:That was Joan blades, founder of living room conversations, and you've been listening to method to the madness or weekly public affairs show on k a l x Berkeley, celebrating the bay area innovators. You can find all of our podcasts [00:29:30] on iTunes university. Tune in next Friday at noon. [inaudible]. Speaker 4:Okay. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Man, it has been a bad week in tech for just about everyone: Samsung discovered some serious flaws in Samsung Pay and many Android Phones, Microsoft accidentally leaked its own Golden Key for Secure Boot (leaving some devices wide open for hacking shenanigans and FBI surveillance), and Apple had a bunch more photos of what probably resemble (some are clearly fake) the next iPhone. Charles and Mike take stock of what is -- and is not -- likely to be in the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, discuss this golden example (heh) of why encryption is important, geek out over the latest Star Wars: Rogue One trailer and Star Trek: Discovery news, and take Om Malik for a walk over some hot Lego pieces for his unusually off-base and factless rant about Apple's new TV show, "Planet of the Apps," and Eddy Cue. All this and more, so come and explore!

VP & Executive Editor, HarperCollins Publishers   Interview starts at 18:58 and ends at 43:28   There are a lot of very serious readers at Amazon, and honestly I think that that's something that is not understood.
