Remember Movie Pass?

All the movies you wanted for just nine bucks?

And this season, I'm digging into the tech stories we weren't told.

Starting with Stacey Spikes, the black founder of Movie Pass who got pushed out of the company he built. Everybody's trying to knock you down and it's not going to work and no one's going to like it. And then boom, it's everywhere. And that was that moment. Listen to there are no girls on the internet on the IHurt Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Yo, what's up? It's your brother, Kim Merrill, man.
