CrunchWeek: Twitter’s Leadership Shuffles, Amazon’s New Music App, And Leena’s Last Day


Happy Friday, and welcome to new episode of CrunchWeek, the TechCrunch TV show that brings a few of us writers together to talk about the most buzzed about tech news stories of the past seven days.

In today’s episode, Leena Rao, Ryan Lawler and I talked about the latest C-level shuffles at Twitter with the departures of COO Ali Rowghani and VP of media Chloe Sladden, and Amazon launching its new music streaming service (and the rumors that a smartphone launch is up next.) We also popped a bottle of bubbly to toast to my dear friend and CrunchWeek cohost Leena Rao, who is departing from TechCrunch this week after five and a half years to join Google Ventures in a new role as operating partner.
