"We're incredibly pro-tech. We believe it has a net very positive impact on the world. We are enthusiasts for technology. We're fans. On each episode of TBPN, they deliver a tech-focussed roundup of the day's headlines, intended to be part daytime television, part group chat with your bros."
"You guys are what I always hoped would occur. But I just didn't know who would do it. I'd like to think that maybe, in some way, you happened 'cause sometime you saw me. You're not 2.0. You are sui generis."
Jordi Hays and John Coogan, both veterans of tech startups, created TBPN (Technology Business Programming Network), a year-old daily three-hour live stream that delivers tech-focused news coverage. The show combines daytime television format with casual group conversation style, positioning itself as explicitly pro-technology and enthusiastic about the industry's positive impact. Based in Los Angeles, the hosts secured an exclusive partnership with the New York Stock Exchange to broadcast directly from the trading floor alongside established financial media outlets like Bloomberg and CNBC. This venture represents an alternative media approach built by tech insiders who resent mainstream media coverage of their industry.
