Podshow Seeks New TeXtra Host; Natali Del Conte Comments On Departure From Show
Dec 4th, 2007 | By Elisabeth Lewin | Category: Video Podcasts 
In a post on his blog entitled “TeXtra – Now Hiring,” Podshow cofounder Adam Curry talks about the departure of comely commentator Natali Del Conte from the technology podcast:
All of us at PodShow couldn’t be more proud to see her meteoric rise. She leaves us with a very strong program and international format in TeXtra and I personally wish her much continued success.
And Del Conte explains her departure from TeXtra for the greener pastures of a job at CNET, where she will also file occasional reports at Fox News:
“I want to make it clear that my departure from Podshow is not an indication of the state of things at Podshow. This is just the next logical step for me and I owe a lot of it to Podshow. I was not a proven success story when Adam “discovered” me on an episode of Cranky Geeks. He took a huge chance and made a huge investment in me and I will never forget that. Adam took me to Spruce in Lauren Heights last week and he offered to continue to be a mentor to me and I am surely going to take him up on that offer. Podshow will continue to do big things, with or without TeXtra.”
The fact that she had to say “my departure from Podshow is not an indication of the state of things at Podshow” when she is going to a site that is a million times better and respected IS in its self a comment on the “state of things at Podshow”! Aren’t they losing people left, right and center? They are really irreverent in the market at the moment.

Podshow will not exist as a company by this time next year. Write that down.
They said that last year, Joey MD.
