Dear friends of Tiny Spark,

We’re writing with our monthly check-in to let you know about some of our most recent episodes. We’re continuing to interrogate assumptions about places and platforms; whether they’re in Silicon Valley, Broadway or Kabul.

We enjoyed welcoming back to the podcast Stanford professor, Rob Reich. He’s been on the show before with powerful critiques of philanthropy. Now Reich is taking aim at another powerful force in our culture: Silicon Valley’s tech giants. Reich and a pair of his Stanford colleagues are out with a new book in which they lay out a host of concerns about the power wielded by today’s technologists and the need ensure that their work helps – and not harms – civil society.

We then move over to Broadway, to catch up with some of its stars who are beginning to emerge from a long professional lockdown. As theaters begin to re-open, we found actors and producers who are feeling a renewed sense of urgency to change the way that Broadway has long operated, especially at it relates to power and racial equity.

And keeping a focus on the arts, we speak to a pair of artists who are interrogating what it means to archive historic records. In doing so, they’re asking hard questions about whose stories are told, whose are not, and what it means to be a ‘radical archivist’. Finally, we round out our collection by taking another hard look at the much-celebrated crowd-funding platform, GoFundMe. We speak with a researcher who studied 175,000 GoFundMe campaigns produced during the COVID crisis. She discovered that nearly half didn’t receive a single donation. We find out who wins on the platform, who loses, and why.

Thanks so much for listening and please stay in touch!

Warmly,
Amy and Freddie
