This week, we record GET LOST via Skype, with Cory in Seattle and me in Boston. It’s the first episode of GL where we’re not actually together in a room and man, does it sound like it. Still, not bad considering we’re 3,000 miles and several beers apart. In this podcast, we discuss the recent trend of private equity firms purchasing local stations - and whether those stations’ web efforts are a “drag” on station values. We also chat about ABC News’s recent move to cut traditional jobs and beef up digital jobs. All that, in glorious monophonic sound, in this episode of GET LOST.

Cory takes a turn in the interview chair (about time) and presses me for dirt on Consultant Life. (HInt: the word “evil” gets used.) We also discuss who is responsible for stories on news sites that aren’t relevant to the audience. (Hint: it’s not always management.) All that, plus Cory’s third beer of the day, in Episode Four of GET LOST.

Really, we should call this “Episode 1, Part 2,” but we’re stretching our discussion from NYC to fill several shows. This is in the finest tradition of television and radio. Here, Cory and I discuss the finer points of the online world. Also - beer. We chat about Kate’s site, SeattleChic.com and Terry Heaton’s fun with CompUSA. I also answer some of your comments about Episode 1. Keep ‘em coming…

We hear podcasting is going to be big. Paris Hilton big. So we thought we’d try it out. Cory and I met up in New York City and, of course, had to talk shop. In episode one, season one of “Get Lost,” I grill Cory on the previously undisclosed and possibly scandalous origins of Lost Remote. We also tackle the topic “Is Paris Hilton news?” We do this for the sole purpose of improving download numbers.
