1. “So let's have a little bit of background about the company about Axon. You know, everyone knows what a taser is, and Taser has been deployed in different ways, but explain to me how you started the company and how it's gone to doing body cameras. And I want to sort of break down how much how big a business it is and where you're deployed.”

2. “Hi, I'm Kara Swisher, editor at large of Recode. You may know me as someone who only likes guns when Sarah Connor is wielding them, but in my spare time I talk tech and you're listening to Ricode Decode from the Vox Media Podcast Network. Today in the red chair is Rick Smith, the founder and CEO of Axon, the company formerly known as Taser International. In addition to Taser, Axon is best known for the body cameras it makes for police officers, and in July it said it would not embed facial recognition technology in those cameras because of concerns over its accuracy. Rick is also the author of a book about gun control called The End of Killing, how our newest technologies can solve humanity's oldest problem. I'm very much looking forward to this interview. Rick, welcome to Recode Decode.”
