Eric Newcomer
Host and Writer
I'm an independent journalist writing directly for subscribers with my newsletter, Newcomer. Previously I covered the startup industry for outlets like Bloomberg and The Information.
I bring my perspective to the show as someone who understands the inside-story of Silicon Valley but who is happy to poke and prod as to why the tech world operates like it does.
