"Any time there is a recession or a depression its a great time to innovate, create or start a project"👌🏻 precious wise words!

[@kperer1]

Yes, just finished hatching twitter. Very interesting to watch this again after reading the book.

[@pablopaez3853]

I just love Jack's perspectives. I bought Square's stock at a time when everybody was dismissing it. I saw the major positive impact they had on entrepreneurs. Sold early. Enjoyed some great growth but wow; truly is the amazon of payment processors.

[@udoyxyz]

Some of the best advice I've ever heard on getting started.

[@jackleahy7133]

Jack is one of the most inovative people to ever live, everyone should stive to be as creative.

[@ziz9113]

Absolute hidden gem on KZbin.

[@dmgerbino]

I enjoyed hearing the insights of @jack regarding @twitter and @square - Jack's background story was cool. @Jack is right about the data. Getting to the correct metrics to measure is the hard part. Keep up the good work Kevin.

[@MikePetrucci]

I LOVE the musical chord at the intro with the title slate. It's the little things like that, that I find truly amazing.

[@JasonPrance]

Fascinating interview with Jack. Kevin did a great job with questions and there were many great take-away's. Looking forward to the next show.

[@jambla]

Fantastic! Just what I've been looking for. Love how you let him speak. You nailed the production. Top notch.

[@JMDylan]

Great interview. I really like how you let him do the majority of the talking and let him really express what he wants to say. Most people will cut others off mid sentence and ask a new question to try and move the interview in the direction they want. Great podcast and I will continue to watch! -Dylan

[@Nightgamerx]

Love the new series Kevin, looking forward to many more!

[@Andru]

Definitely nice work - gonna subscribe to the newsletter right away!

[@NotalesS]

Great video Kevin! Straight to the point and getting the details. This is what all interviews should be like! Cheers!

[@Subleak]

Congrats on the new Podcast Kevin. Giving it a watch now!

[@bananasalesman1]

I love when you love what you're doing Kevin.

[@LawrenceGilardi]

Kevin now that's what I was talking about, this is the kind of show that I am interested in watching. Dude you nailed it !

[@MattMedeiros]

I'm glad you finally got this going Kevin. I hope this all culminates into the book you were planning on writing!

[@MrJcomp22]

#hatchingtwitter : Jack: "But I invented twitter" Ev: "No you didn't" Read the book. Jack certainly contributed considerably to the idea, but to he say he is the sole creator of Twitter is pretty unfair to the rest of the team.

[@moes_film]

great insights. .thank you for sharing and sharing without ads.

[@jmbwithcats]

Subscribed immediately. Good job Kevin, look forward to the new content.

[@OnlyHDVideos]

great interview. What a nice guy he is! Keep up the good work Kevin!

[@tenqomasacote]

Loved the first episode Kevin. Sets a new bar for production quality in the web. Not just in terms of the cinematography, but the concept and execution as well. It feels '60 Minutes' for the web.

[@MikeESizzle]

This is great! Im really excited to see what's to come!

[@masamedia5605]

This is a very interesting, even inspiring interview. Thank you, Kevin.

[@hexmedi]

what a guy ! very interesting talk. Thanks a lot for sharing.

[@spidvid]

Really solid interview Kevin, keep it going man! When I first heard you were doing your own web show I was hoping it would be a format like this. Good decision, and thanks for helping entrepreneurs too.

[@tylerhwillis]

Great job on this -- fantastic. BTW, I love the idea of "editing" the team -- speaks more to the requirements of an early stage company than most frameworks. Also, love the simple, elegant introduction.

[@MikeCampton]

Loving the intro and outro SO MUCH!

[@achilforce]

Brilliant show Kevin! Keep it up!

[@JTMaustin]

Love the format. Good first podcast.You've got my attention. Let's see if you can keep it. Best of luck and good fortune.

[@Realdude2011]

Beautifully shot and edited by Glennmc! Looking forward to more sober and clean Kevin. Props!

[@jinternational]

Nicely done. Looking forward to future interviews. Subscribed.

[@DrArbitrage]

Great interview. You elicited some great information from Dorsey. I like the way you two think. I especially liked the Golden Gate Bridge analogy.

[@RobertCornishRichter]

Great interview!

Great video, great looking too. Can't wait for more. And since you seem to be doing interviews with forward thinking people, when is the Kevin Rose interview coming. :D

I like the idea of this new podcast. Please don't let it take away from Diggnation in any way.

[@Scatterbrainn]

Loved the choice of using NIN Ghosts as the music!

[@BrianKriesel]

I like the new show. That was a really interesting interview.

[@TheGlosoli]

Great content and nice and simple format. Good job!

[@Collected1]

720p looks beautiful. Feels very personal and up close.. as if we're a 3rd party in the discussion. I like it. I gotta ask.. what's the green liquid?

[@discoveringyoutoo]

great show!

[@ecnerwalgnay]

great stuff Kevin!! you found a niche and you filled it!! I like how youtube is suggesting make-up videos after I watch this foundation video.

[@andiewfinnigan]

Great interview.

[@globesurfer122]

9:53 that's awesome, Jack literally came up with name Twitch. I wonder if the founders of Twitch took it from this interview.

@DAProductionHouse It's mentioned at the end of the interview It's Nine Inch Nails - 2 Ghosts I off the Ghost I - IV album which was also given away for free/name your own price by Trent Reznor himself during its initial launch.

[@abhipatil4844]

Awesome

[@davidvonch8223]

Thats neat how they came up with the name for Twitter.

Hawaiian Punch Green. Love that Red, White, and Slightly off Blue for that shirt.

[@duujo]

Enjoyed the show - would be good to get an establishing (wide) shot first thing so we're familiar with the setting. :) (To be annoyingly picky, the static shot of Kevin seemed a bit out of focus, but the overall style is cool and I love me some Hippy Glenn). @musictaps - I'm guessing the dryness will always depend on who's being interviewed. I think Kevin had a good energy this episode. Jack is as Jack is. :)

[@NoRogeR]

Great camera work.

[@TheWisestWizards]

Great idea for a show, and a solid first interview. I think the show needs to be a bit more relaxed though.

[@bmalmstrom]

What kind of tea is that? Great podcast.

[@OliverOgg]

That drink looks delicious..... :-o

[@mgilbertee]

I loved the interview... I dont want to pay for them tho :( so I will have to follow a week late I guess...

[@macuser5555]

So glad that Kevin is doing something without that annoyingly loud Alex Albrecht. Alex is the reason I stopped watching Diggnation Revision 3. Kevin doing this is the reason I decided to subscribe. Kevin Rocks!!!

[@matthunter4826]

Jack looks way professional in that form then his biker appearance.

[@adamlee9347]

Was Kevin Systron working for Dorsey at this time?

[@SebastianBoldt]

Kevin , which Camera do you use ?

[@rejectpenguin]

@luis61961944 agreed. The title should have keywords like Jack Dorsey and twitter founder. This will also help drive traffic to the video from searches.

[@Alyx_Vance]

@CooperSnow yes

[@JarinUdom]

The editing reminds me of Carson Daly's new show format

[@luclab2000]

@alpebourrin I am convinced that is Nine Inch Nails, but not quite sure which song ;)

[@SevenDeMagnus]

So cool. I have one of the books in that trilogy by Isaac Asimov. God bless, Revelation 21:4

[@DAProductionHouse]

what is that audio track?

[@laket06]

@teenprenuer He looks kinda like a more normal version of the Doomsday Killer (Travis) on the latest season of Dexter... Anyway, one of my favorite Foundation episodes so far!

[@dinodinosaur]

what's with the social network-esque intro music?

[@SireComplexity]

12:45 in video Kevin made a prediction that is now a reality with Facebook's "Subscribe" feature.

[@1Daiv]

tea.

I'm starting to see parallels between Jack Dorsey and Jack Hawksmoor.
