Usually we wait a few days until a show has settled. While we stall, our
producer and director Tina Chase Gillmor scours the recording for short clips
that give a sense of the flavor and tenor of the conversation. This show,
recorded a little more than 2 weeks ago, went deep on politics, government…

For the past several months or so, I’ve been writing an accompanying post to
editions of the Gillmor Gang. Due to production issues, I’m usually at least a
week behind the recording session for the target show. This originally seemed
like an impediment to the process of enhancing the im…

The Gang or a subset did a Clubhouse, longer than a regular show by a good
third. The audio only structure lacked the visual cues that distinguish between
irony and bad manners, but otherwise it felt familiar if not comfortable. I
can’t remember what we talked about, only that I seemed a litt…

The Gang spends a lot of time these days on the streaming wars, so it seems
appropriate that Congress wants to get into it. With Netflix’s success at
overturning the structure of Hollywood’s broadcast television production and
advertising processes, consumers are taking advantage of a Golden Age of…

Fear is back with the deadly combination of pandemic politics and a vicious
variant. The good news is that if enough people took the shots we could cut the
damage to something manageable. The other good news is progress on the twin
issues of Trump and social media. In both cases some semblance of b…

On this edition of the Gillmor Gang, Brent Leary shows off his new wireless
adaptor for his live streaming studio. The result is a captivating view of his
console as he switches between closeups and incoming feed from the rest of the
Gang, all captured in a widescreen cinematic view. The underlying…

The underlying message is that live realtime video production has become
accessible to virtually anyone as streaming becomes ubiquitous at the so-called
citizen level. Trailblazers like Brent and his CRMPlayaz partner in crime Paul
Greenberg have been way out on the bleeding edge of this stuff; now…

Twitter seems on an aggressive path to putting pedal to the metal. From its
earliest days as a failwhale generator and a ransacker of third party successes,
the company under Jack Dorsey’s stewardship has become an acquirer of tools to
support the creators it hosts. Twitter Spaces, its Clubhouse cl…

Mostly friends and sometimes family have encouraged me to tell stories about my
days in the comedy, music, and tech businesses. And for all of this time I’ve
been reluctant. However, with the Pandemic and the impending birth of my first
grandchild, I’ve reconsidered. My wife’s pas…

It’s been several weeks now, and Clubhouse still hasn’t enabled record/replay.
Neither has Twitter Spaces. Facebook just announced a live audio entry too, but
no record. With all the drama about Facebook, I’m not expecting much soon, but
c’mon guys, let’s get it done. …

On the last Gang recording session in early October before the birth of our
first grandchild, I tried to stir the pot by attacking Democratic Progressives
for capsizing the second of two Infrastructure bills. The moderates, led by the
recalcitrant Joe Manchin and his silent sidekick Kyrsten Sinema,…

My favorite show right now is Succession, the fictionalization of the Murdoch
family and its media empire. It’s relentlessly funny, as the patriarch and
children vie for being the most reprehensible. It’s a big tie; each of the
principals vacillates between nervous self-doubt and over the top belie…

Nowhere is the mess we’re in more volatile than the media war on its rationale
for economic survival. As broadcast television gives way to cable and now
subscription television, the news networks are caught in a market crash. Trump’s
loss in the election and social excommunication has made it super…

Well, it turns out the Beatles didn’t get broken up by Yoko after all. But Peter
Jackson may have gotten closer. His Get Back movie seemed to be so far over the
top that even Beatlemaniacs like myself had had enough. But no. On this edition
of the Gang, we still can’t stop talking about…

This argument over Web3 is really exciting. How does one call out either of the
two main protagonists? Jack Dorsey has an unlimited hall pass now that he’s free
of Wall Street’s hound dogging adult supervision of Twitter, and he’s using it
for some subtle purpose. I don’t kn…

Here we go with the last show of 2021, recorded in mid-December. It was Frank
Radice’s last show from New York before he returned to London. It was nice to
bid the year goodbye, but we were careful not to say good riddance like we did
in 2020. It was nice to feel good about […]

Politics and tech are certainly strange bedfellows. The Gang loves to talk about
filibusters and the fall of democracy, but forget it when I try to bring up my
fascination with live audio. That is understandable; we never talk about the
little stuff until there’s a battling billionaire angle. So it…

I’ve spent the last few weeks diving into the world of crypto, and lo and
behold, there might be something to it. Part of the problem is I rarely sense an
innovation that revolves around the inevitability of people making big money.
Instead, I become aware of something that might be bubbling up, li…
