Montreal Tech Podcast

In our fourth episode we skype with David Quail, the man who wrote a controversial article on Techvibes about why startups should choose Canada over Silicon Valley. Discussed is Dave's opinion and some of the criticism he received. In the second half of the podcast I spent an evening at the home of Ian Jeffrey and I spoke to him and his wife Emma about moving from Montreal to San Francisco to run a company and Ian's return to his hometown to run the FounderFuel program.

Clayton Berg wants to revolutionize the music industry with his new startup Opia Music. Joey discusses the music industry, music sharing startups, the startup visa and more in yet another beer-soaked episode of the Montreal Tech Podcast. Enjoy!

In episode two we hung out with CEO Andrew Sider of Bunch. Andrew is a no-nonsense, kick-ass dude who's first job was selling vegetables from his farm, to his treachers, when he was 6 years old. He would eventually become a founding team member of BandPage, the San Fran music sharing startup that gained 12 million users and over $18 Million in investment. Now Andrew heads up Montreal-based startup Bunch. Check it all out here.

In the first episode of the Montreal Tech Podcast Joey chats with Greg Isenberg of 5by.com and Good People Ventures. Joining Joey is Guest Host Carlos Pacheco of Just For Laughs. We spoke about Greg feeling like he had a small genitalia whilst pitching at Finovate '11, why people love Greg, and a pair of Air Jordan's that motivated him to start earning money at the age of 13.
