I'm interviewing John McAfee this morning. If you have a question, ASK and I will forward the question.

I don't get the premise that McAfee is someone important. He's a loser.

Remember he left the company he founded in 1994.

As some of you know I have a podcast. John McAfee has agreed to appear next week and it'll be released next Thursday.

John McAfee is a British-American computer programmer and businessman. He founded the software company McAfee Associates in 1987 and ran it until 1994, when he resigned from the company. McAfee Associates achieved early success as the creators of McAfee, the first commercial antivirus software, and the business now produces a range of enterprise security software. The company was purchased by Intel in 2011 and spun back out in 2017 with TPG Capital owning a majority stake, though the software has always borne the McAfee brand name. McAfee's wealth peaked in 2007 at $100 million, before his investments plummeted in the financial crisis of 2007–2008. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

I'll pin the results once published.

Ouch! Sorry I missed this. I hope it went well. Could you post a link to your podcast here?

I remember McAfee from my earliest PCs. He, Peter Norton and his utilities and Steve Gibson's Spinrite kept a lot of computers on the road, that is for sure.

Link?

That was the craziest conversation I've ever had in my life.

EARLY ON ..HE MENTIONED TALKING WITH YOU 'AFTER' ..WAS THERE ANYTHING ELSE? ALL IN ALL, ID SAY HE'S HANGING IN THERE PRETTY WELL CONSIDERING THE PRESSURES THAT HE MUST BE FEELING. THE INTERVIEW YEILDED SOME GOOD INFO FOR EVERYONE.
IT SEEMS THAT YOU JUST HAVE TO LET HIM GO AND ENJOY THE PERFORMANCE.

We spoke for about 20 minutes before the show you heard. I'll be releasing that in a separate video. We had quite a few laughs. Then I shifted gears into a more serious conversation.
