Every week he filled my mind with modern internet philosophy and food for thought.  Interviews with Anon.!  Grilled some politicians (especially on C-36/C-11).  Inflated my ballon for social media.  I believe he also mentioned boingboing in one podcast and turned me right onto here.  Definitely a guy who can see where the puck is going. I hope he can start a kickstarter! I don't donate to much but I'd throw hard earned money at Jessie!

(But somehow they keep cranking hard-hitting incisive "Spark" out week after week.) I suppose I've listened to every Search Engine episode from the beginning to the end. Jesse is a crackerjack journalist and does a killer interview, particularly with domestic politicians. I'll miss the show, and I'm looking forward to seeing what he pulls together next, given some time to scheme on it.
