Following my involvement in Leadership Sunnyvale, class of 2009, I've been working with a classmate, Dan Hugo, to launch a local news media company.


We're doing podcasts to start. The website's taking shape, with updates done weekly. We'll also be doing a hyperlocal news website for Sunnyvale.


It's very early stage, but we're adding new shows by interviewing people and encouraging others to consider posting their podcasts on our site.


We're also moving towards context-driven advertising where the content of the podcasts support the ads and the advertising is relevant to the podcasts.


Have a listen and let us know what you think. We take concerns and compliments. As we progress, the shows will improve with skill and better technology, perhaps even the use of a real studio (not just an apartment).


The goal we have is to put news content up on the site, then do our show as a review of the content plus our opinions and questions, and then engage in conversation through listener comments and follow up interviews.

    Very interesting, Kev. I just listened to about half? of your last podcast (1/2 hour) It is something to "crow" about- well done (audio was clear; the pace may be a little too laid back, but good format.) I can see the show might meet a real need and thus catch on with your local listeners, especially as you have guests and interaction with others. You and Dan have a lot of good ideas for future programming (you already are covering good practical topics for Sunnyvale and there are many possibilities for the show's development. Are you being heard and receiving comments and input from listeners?

    I am impressed by the great effort you have made to get involved with your community and to make a difference there. And you are! We pray the Lord will bless your efforts.
