It's been a real pleasure to watch your work with Startup Foundry. I remember when you first came and floated the idea, and the top comments were that g0atbutt was a ridiculous name for a tech reporter. You ignored all that talk AND GOT IT DONE!!
Talk is cheap. Anyone could SAY they are going to compete with Google, Facebook, or the whatever the biggest player in the game is. It's a whole lot harder to do it. You came out and boldly proclaimed that you were going to start an alternative to TechCrunch and you are well on your way to doing this.
My one constructive criticism is that you spend some time getting more comfortable with your interviewee and with yourself. I've never met Andrew Warner but he's comes off as being very charismatic while being genuine at the same time. I can't imagine anyone watching him and not liking the guy. Part of this is probably his natural personality, but a big role is because he also comes EXTREMELY prepared to his interviews.
I don't have any tips for you on increasing your charisma, but I will say that your on air persona is an important part of your brand/product and there's a certain something that's missing there although I can't name it.
I expect to see you reaching greater and greater levels each month!
