Jake and Amir on being Web famous, fed up with Hollywood, and podcast bosses Recode Media with Peter Kafka

Jake Hurwitz & Amir Blumenfeld got their start on the internet when making content for sites like YouTube and Facebook was considered the Wild West. Then, after an iconic run on College Humor, starring in thousands of videos over the course of 10 years, they took another leap of faith: starting the podcast network HeadGum. The duo sits down with Recode’s Peter Kafka to discuss their unorthodox career as entertainers and entrepreneurs, as well as their newly launched dating app, Orion.

Featuring: Jake Hurwitz (@jakehurwitz), Comedian and Co-Founder of HeadGum
