LIVE tech podcast 8 p.m. ET: Uber, Facebook and more
LOS ANGELES — Our Thursday #talkingtechLIVE podcast returns at 8 p.m. ET on TuneIn, as we dive into the big tech news of the week, and introduce you to some new startups and apps.

On the agenda:
-- Uber and Lyft come to the airports. Los Angeles this week approved the ride-hailing apps to co-exist side by side with traditional cabs at LAX. How's that going to work?
-- Facebook wants to take on Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Cortana with a new kind of digital assistant, within its Facebook Messenger app. Intrigued? So are we.
-- Speaking of Facebook, have autoplay videos gone too far? It certainly seemed so this week, when many folks saw something in their news feeds they didn't intend on viewing--an actual murder. We weigh in.
Our guests:
-- Mike Jones and Peter Pham, co-founders of Science, a Santa Monica based tech incubator and investor, whose properties include the Dollar Shave Club and Dog Vacay.
-- Photographer Sue Bryce, who will be teaching seminars on CreativeLive's PhotoWeek 2015 September 21-25. She'll tell all about it and introduce you to CreativeLive.
-- Richard Wolpert, the founder of HelloTech, a new firm which brings tech support to your home.
-- Sam Stoddard, the founder of Simple Citizen, a new website that promises to streamline the process of applying for immigration.
