Previous Episode: Matt Case: Living the Dream

They’re back! The Brothers Klippsten reunite after a two month hiatus. They're joined by seasoned writer and journalist, Leigh Cuen. The gang discusses journalism and how technology has changed legacy media models, creativity in the open-source space, objective reporting, culture shock, and Bitcoin’s impact on a global scale.

Leigh has been busy! She's covered culture, data journalism, social analysis, Bitcoin, human rights, technology, and multimedia production, and is co-founder of ONA Jerusalem, the first Online News Association group in the Middle East.

Her work has been featured in publications such as Newsweek Japan, International Business Times, Racked, CoinDesk, Insider, History Today, Mic, Al Jazeera, YNet, The Jerusalem Post, Mic, and Salon. Leigh’s work has also been published in Spanish, French, Italian, Hebrew and Arabic.
