Our Reading
The announcement sounds ambitious.
TBPN partners with Chris Lehane, a name more commonly associated with politics than tech. Lehane will oversee the podcast, but TBPN claims it will remain independent. Because that’s exactly how it usually works when a political operative takes the reins. TBPN’s cult following will likely be thrilled to see their favorite podcast “expand its reach” – code for “get more mainstream and possibly less edgy.”
