Meerkat’s Ben Rubin To Join Us On TechCrunch Radio On Sirius XM Tonight

Tonight is a very special edition of our weekly TechCrunch Radio show, as we’ll be having Ben Rubin, CEO and cofounder of Meerkat, join us on the show to discuss what’s going on with his virally sensational live broadcasting service.

And just like clockwork, we’ll be hosting the TC Radio Pitch-off where five companies will have sixty seconds each to impress a panel of judges, including me, John Biggs and a local VC.

As I said, it’s going to be an exciting show and we urge you to tune into Sirius XM Insight 121 to listen in at 6pm ET/3pm PT.

For those of you who want to participate in the TC Radio Pitch-Off, the full list of rules and application instructions can be found below:
