Episode 66: Jeff Jarvis
Tuesday, August 29, 2023
That Word Chat returns August 29 with Jeff Jarvis, author of the new book, The Gutenberg Parenthesis: The Age of Print and Its Lessons for the Age of the Internet. In it, he looks back at the age of print ("a grand exception in history") and examines what comes next.
Jarvis is the Tow Professor for Journalism Innovation at CUNY's Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. He is also author of Object Lessons: An Elegy to the Magazine, due out this fall. His previous books include What Would Google Do? and Public Parts.
Jarvis was creator and founding editor of Entertainment Weekly, president and creative director of Advance.net (the online component of Advance Publications), Sunday editor of the New York Daily News, TV critic for TV Guide and People, and a columnist on the San Francisco Examiner. He is cohost of the podcast This Week in Google.
Sign up below for the Zoom link to the live show, 4:30 p.m. EDT (20:30 UTC) August 29.

Your credit card will be charged monthly or annually, but you are welcome to change things at any time.
Terms are subject to change, as is life in general.
Private access to recorded chats means you can download them and use them yourself, share with your pets and immediate family, and use them in whole or in part (give us credit, please) in a classroom or for other nonprofit educational purposes.

Benefits listed above are for the live show on Zoom, and we may mix things up or do something totally different on other platforms.
We apologize in advance for any delays in providing any of the benefits listed. We'll do our best, but we sometimes get busy with our day jobs. If you are having trouble finding a benefit or did not receive a benefit, please let us know.
