Eskimo Witch 105: Coleman and Soucheray vs. technology; Adria Richards; Julio Ojeda-Zapata

Technology seemed to permeate the major stories in Minnesota this week. Nearly overshadowing the fact that the Senate contest wrapped up this week, was the fracas over Coleman's unsecured donor database being leaked online. Local IT consultant-turned-media celeb Adria Richards was the first to discover Coleman's unsecure database file back in January.

Naturally the question on everyone's mind: Is she part of the Russian mafia??

We had to ask her, especially after Coleman lawyer Fritz Knaack offhandedly suggested that the two reasons their donor credit cards were possibly compromised would be (1) Malicious partisan web hackers, or (2) Russian mafia. They might be forgetting (3) Campaign data security lapse.

Jou Soucheray made waves - maybe on purpose - with his anti-Twitter rant this week. He even scared away our man Julio Ojeda-Zapata. Julio is a tech columnist and Twitter expert who says Twitter has changed his life and that he's more connected to humanity. See — we can all get along! So long as we stay off Joe's lawn.

Finally, dear friends, we take inspiration from MinnPost's microsponsor experiment and ask you to keep Eskimo Witch, and MN Stories, afloat. This is the 5th episode of Eskimo Witch, and right now it's a labor of love. To pay the bills and keep these funny, timely and irrelevant — err, I mean irreverent videos coming at you every week, plus the sincere verité documentary interviews with local arts and media luminaries, I'm asking you to throw some hard-earned cash our way.
