Adam Curry might have landed $8.85m in venture funding for his Podshow company, the show that the former MTV VJ does on Sirius Radio sucks, says blogging oracle Robert Scoble.
"I bought a Sirius radio specifically to listen to your show. After six weeks of listening I gotta say your show sucks. I'm not listening anymore. Here's why: you're competing with Bloomberg and all the other channels. They have better content," Scoble wrote in posting.
The show doesn't feature Curry talking about what's cool, but instead contains clips from random podcasters, Scoble complains.
I've never heard Curry's show on Sirius, but have listened to his Daily Source Code once or twice. Scoble's description of the Sirius show fits the Daily Source Code too: it sucked.
Curry did well at MTV, but as an podcasting pundit he has failed miserably. I belief there is an expression for this: one trick pony.
Curry in better times
