Episode description

Craig Newmark, Founder of Craigslist and Craig Newmark Philanthropies, sits down to share the story of Craigslists’ origins as a mailing list amongst friends and subsequent evolution, as well as how the lessons he learned as a kid in Sunday School apply to the work that he is doing today as a philanthropist. Newmark and host of #ThePlaybook, David Meltzer, chat about a variety of subjects including the relationship between works of fiction and the development of technology, why being a “nerd” taught Craig to be adaptable and react to change, and the thought process behind choosing a cause or organization to support.
