hy PodcastFolge 261 mit Frank McCourt: Warum wir ein neues Internet-Protokoll brauchen
Das Internet, wie wir es heute kennen, ist ein Schatten seiner selbst. Eine Dystopie verglichen mit jener Utopie, die seiner Gründung einst vorangegangen war. Datenkraken, Überwachungskapitalismus, sklerotisch verhärtete Netzwerk-Monopole, Echo-Räume, Filter Bubbles, Fake News, Hate Speech, Polarisierung, Extremismus, Untergrabung der Demokratie. Die Liste der Fehler, Versäumnisse und Gefahren des real existierenden Internets ist lang. Doch wie kommt man diesen Nachteilen bei? Ist ein besseres Internet denkbar, und wie gelangt man zu ihm?
Frank McCourt – Teil einer bekannten und einflussreichen Unternehmerdynastie aus Boston, seinerseits erfolgreicher Investor zum Beispiel in Olympique Marseille – brandmarkt seit vielen Jahren die Fehler des Netze...

In this short unique episode of "Money Reimagined," Michael Casey is joined by Football Club owner and Philanthropist Frank McCourt. He is also the founder of Project Liberty, an urgent initiative to repair the web. Currently, Casey and McCourt collaborate on a joint...

(Note: McCourt died July 19, 2009) The two talk about the loss of the storytelling ethos in our culture, and the need to preserve history through both oral and written tradition. They also discuss the rigors of teaching; McCourt taught high school English for 30 years and wrote about the experience in his 2005 book "Teacher Man".

Now I've Heard EverythingFrank McCourtHappy Saint Patrick's Day!
As I was mulling over all of the Irish or Irish-Amerian people I've interviewed through the years, one name kept coming to the forefront: Frank McCourt.
McCourt burst onto the literary scene in 1996, wth his memoir of his early childhood, a powerful book called Angela's Ashes. It also became an award-winning movie.
He followed that up with volume two of his memoirs, a book called 'Tts/. Then, in 2005, the third volume, a book called Teacher Man. And that's when I met him.

If ever there was a “rags-to-riches” story in publishing, Angela’s Ashes was it: The book would go on to receive the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award, sell more than four million copies in hardcover alone, and become a film directed by Alan Parker. At the age of 66, Frank emerged almost overnight as one of the most celebrated authors in America. But if you knew Fra...

At the conclusion of McCourt’s talk, Margit Rankin, then-Executive Director of Seattle Arts & Lectures, joins him in an interview.
McCourt, a New York City schoolteacher who taught for nearly three decades, always told his writing students, “Write what you know.” It wasn’t until his mid-60s, in 1996, that he decided to follow his own advice, sitting down to produce the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award...
