Stanford University has played a key role in the success of Silicon Valley, helping to spawn companies like Google, Cisco and Hewlett-Packard.

Host: Dave Iverson

Guests:

  • Ken Auletta, media columnist for The New Yorker and author of books including "Googled: The End of the World as We Know It"
