Acerca de esta escucha
Early True Believers: The Untold Story of Silicon Alley is a 1990s saga of ambition and innovation set in Manhattan’s Silicon Alley, a swath of downtown that served as New York City’s nerve center of tech entrepreneurship. The series features the stories of a forgotten cohort of early internet visionaries, countercultural social networks, the digital gold rush, and the lavish events that came with it, including one held in an underground Tribeca bunker that abruptly ended in a police raid—a harbinger of the upheaval to come. After 9/11 and the dot-com crash, nearly all of Silicon Alley’s businesses, many based on a utopian ideology of inclusion and creativity, were lost to history.
This is a groundbreaking oral history of Silicon Alley, the flamboyant and art-driven counterpoint to Silicon Valley’s engineering culture. From the pioneering efforts of figures like Stacy Horn, Jason Calcanis, and Josh Harris to the speculative frenzy that led to the tech bubble’s burst, Early True Believers takes listeners through a world where creativity and capital collide, providing a useful lens to understand the internet today.

Marc Fennell will dive deep into a previously unexplored world of tech hippies, eccentric web subcultures and simmering paranoia, uncovering how this tongue-in-cheek artistic experiment backfired on its creator and went on to influence much of what’s wrong with the internet today.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

It's true that we learn something new every day. This book showed me a whole part of the history of the internet that I'd never imagined. Very interesting!

I'm a dropout Valley girl
The true detail and the impact in the 90s made in today's internet business. We all had to start somewhere and hope that is made us all better individuals.

So insightful and informative!
I lived through this time and never knew the Alley ever existed. This piece portrayed that story with journalistic acumen but also a level of art that would hopefully make the ETBs proud.

Aimless
Lacked a coherent story however it had some decent interviews. My take away was that people partied in the 90s but people party in every decade.
