Author David Kushner: Amazing Stories

David has written 11 books (and counting), published multiple articles in Rolling Stone, New York Times and Wired, and has had at least two story adaptations into movies.  David is well known as a journalist in and about the gaming industry; which is a blood relative of the technology industry. So I was interested in a lot of his stories.   Dave talks about everything ranging from an early interview with Mark Zuckerberg when he lived in a one bedroom apartment in Palo Alto to his interview with Julian Assange and for the fun of it, goes all the way back to days at the University of Maryland when he brought in Hunter S. Thompson to speak. Listeners may see connections between gaming, future generations and evolving technologies all around us. David has a knack for finding and knowing people who want to build things. Even digital nomads working from caves in Portugal during the pandemic. He is somewhat addicting to listen to both in his speaking tone and how his stories draw you in for more! David's early fascination with the blend of technology, gaming and life-like characters whose stories we can't stop hearing about made having him on my show a great, great experience. Enjoy the listen!!
