  • Post-Election State of Media with Semafor's Max Tani
    Dec 10 2024
    Everyone’s got a take on the post-election state of media, including us now. We went behind the headlines with Max Tani, media editor at Semafor, to unpack the changes, challenges and opportunities facing new and legacy media: the rise of podcasts, the proliferation of niche outlets, and the sustainability (or not) of the influencer-journalist model.

  • Behind the Memes with @NolitaDirtbag
    Nov 4 2024
    Alex Hartman is the mind behind Nolita Dirtbag, a “niché and nouveau riche” meme page covering greater-downtown Manhattan (and sometimes Brooklyn). We chat about spending $180 before 11AM on “day in the life” videos, Dirtbag messaging hierarchies, why you shouldn’t put the place of your employment in your IG bio, bringing showmanship back to restaurants, being in a room full of Nolita Dirtbag reply guys, and “what makes you confident?”
