Why Upworthy's the Fastest Growing Media Site: The VICE Podcast 036

from VICE · host VICE

This week on the VICE Podcast Reihan Salam sits down with the founders of Upworthy, Peter Koechley and Eli Pariser. Koechley has been making important ideas irresistible for more than a decade -- as an Onion editor, a viral video producer, and now, as a co-founder of Upworthy; Pariser has dedicated his career to figuring out how technology can elevate important topics in the world -- as an author, an online organizer, and most recently, as a co-founder of Upworthy. Today, these two chat with us about Upworthy, it's creation and where they see it heading in the future, as well as the ever-expanding media landscape.
