Listen now | Justin is a serial entrepreneur who has founded and led successful companies like Firefly, Ready, and Goji, due to his genuine hope of helping people in need. Justin is also a political wonk who founded Voter.com in 2001, an early adopter in online news media. Under his leadership the company generated over 3.5 million monthly active users and 500,000 newsletter subscribers. Voter.com was a repository for digital content that helped Americans educate themselves about local, regional, and national politics. Or to quote Justin directly, “Voter.com delivered the kind of information voters needed to make informed decisions about their elected officials.”
Another fascinating interview. It's such a pleasure to hear compassion and common sense in discussion. It's vital to have mainstream media that report the facts scrupulously but that seems like a pipe dream nowadays. I agree wholeheartedly that education is the key to social mobility, and it is so important to get the electorate engaged in politics. Voter.com sounds marvellous. All my life I have encouraged folks to vote and many have said "I don't know anything about politics". I don't blame them, it's a murky business, but it's all we've got if we're going to change things for the better. Thank you both for the great work you do.

Best line, "McCarthy is uniquely craven....."
Yeah... I laughed out loud when he said that :-) Justin gets politics - and why I enjoyed my chat with him.
Thanks for your continued support!
