Long before Rotten Tomatoes was a household name and on every movie critic’s email list, did you know YOLK magazine was making T-shirts and providing Jet Li photos for the startup website? Listen to our Christmas episode as we talk to PATRICK LEE, one of the founders of Rotten Tomatoes and its first CEO. He’ll take us back to the beginning, back before the dot com bubble and the burst and how they managed to keep the company alive while everyone else was going out of business. His regrets and his ambitions in developing innovative companies. Plenty of new projects to promote, including @StoneSoupSocial and the ultra exclusive community, Fanverse. Finally manifesting, and honoring his magical family life with his wife Michelle Sun, and daughter, Stephanie. Thank you Patrick @rottendoubt, Larry Tazuma @ltgoto, Editor/Singer @CampbellMoon_, @ParisWangofficial and our Sponsor Venerable Injury Law Office’s Alexander Tsao, and Mike Azagra, and Tommy Tam! Please support @ogyolkpodcast, real stories and real interviews!
