GeekBrief.Tv is a tech podcast that explains and sometimes reviews new gadgets, websites, and toys. It was created by self-proclaimed geeks Luria Petrucci (aka Cali Lewis) and her husband Neal Campbell. It circles around the idea of a Geek Intelligence Agency (GIA) that provides knowledge to geeks everywhere. The reason for GeekBrief being so short is because, according to Cali, geeks don't have time to hear an indepth report.
Exactly 5 months after launching the show the producers announced that it was possible for them to leave behind "the tyranny of the day jobs", due to support and income from PodShow Inc., and podcast full time.
"We released the first Geek Brief on December 23, 2005, having never done anything in video production, on camera or off." state Cali & Neal.
Cali was recently featured on a Go Daddy commercial, discussing podcasting.
