Peter Kafka
Senior Correspondent
Peter Kafka covers media and technology and their intersection, which means he writes about everything from streaming TV to fights between the most powerful companies in the world to puzzling trends that may or may not be the future. Many of his stories can be found in his weekly Kafka on Media newsletter, which you can get (for free!) by signing up here. Kafka also hosts the weekly Recode Media podcast, where he discusses all of the above with people who make interesting stuff and run interesting companies; he’s also hosted two seasons of Vox’s Land of the Giants podcast series, focused on Netflix and Apple. You may also see him onstage hosting conferences from time to time.
Prior to Vox, Kafka worked at the company that used to be called All Things Digital, the company that used to be called Silicon Alley Insider, and the company that is still called Forbes. He lives in Brooklyn with his sons, and would like a legal way to stream De La Soul’s first three albums.
