I can't speak about Mahalo, but I have to say that I've become a big Jason Calacanis fan because of the podcast: <a href="http://thisweekinstartups.com/" rel="nofollow">http://thisweekinstartups.com/</a><p>He can be annoying at times, but I love the way he tells it like it is.  Every episode, entrepreneurs call in and he helps us by dishing out no BS advice.  Good advice.  The kind you need to hear when you are too close to the problem to understand what to do.  He doesn't patronize (well maybe just a little), but instead, he seems genuinely interested in helping other entrepreneurs.<p>Yes, his self promotion can get tiring, but hey, the guy is a marketing genius that we can all learn from.  Check out the podcast.
