  1. What a show this week! Free mobile phone service with TextNow, awesome websites with GoDaddy, and Amazon shows off new Fire TVs! Radio America 39:07
  • Don’t just get a free phone number – TextNow has free phone plans for the U.S., too, and optional eSIMs for heavy data use. I catch up with TextNow CEO Derek Ting.
  • Amazon has a wild new Fire TV called Ember Artline. These televisions showcase stunning artwork (when you’re not watching TV or playing games) and include a magnetic frame upon purchase. They also have amazing AI features, as you’ll hear when I sit down with Aidan Marcuss, Amazon VP of Fire TV, while in NYC.
  • Despite its huge success, GoDaddy isn’t resting on its laurels. On what’s new, including an AI-powered solution, I have the pleasure of chatting with Amy Jennette, Senior Director of Integrated Marketing at GoDaddy. Tune in!
