Podtech Loses Scoble: Slowly Drags Other Foot Into Grave

Holy crap, now this is an interesting piece of news. Fresh off Podtech building that brand new studio that Robert Scoble gave us a tour of a few months ago (even if briefly), we now see that Robert is moving full-time to Fast Company.

Scoble isn’t saying if he’ll continue to use the same format as his current show, ScobleShow, where he interviews entrepreneurs daily. Another big question is whether his sponsor, Seagate, will follow him to Fast Company. It’s rumored Seagate is paying a massive fee to sponsor the show.

This is another blow for PodTech, which has already lost its founding CEO and is nearly out of money. The company has run through $7.5 million in funding. They are rumored to be closing on another million or so in bridge financing. But they’re very, very close to the deadpool.

Let’s see… First they shitcan my friend Loren Feldman.

Then Irina Slutsky takes a walk.

Now Scoble is on his way out the door headed for obviously greener pastures.

Podtech is dead.

I guess, on the brightside, they still have that absolute fuck-knuckle Jay Smooth and God knows he’s a network savior…
