PJ: I’m saying the thing she believed in the past was not true.ĪLISA: It didn’t occur to me that like now, you know my URL is out there. Like she could come back to it whenever she wanted.ĪLEX: Are you saying, 'No she didn’t think that,' or 'No that’s not what happens?' I think she just assumed that the site itself would go away, but nothing would happen to the domain name. But the thing is, that she didn’t quite understand what would happen when you let your domain name expire. But it was really clunky and difficult to use, so she started getting notices from GoDaddy, and she was just like, fine, this thing can expire. So had someone design it for her.ĪLEX: Yes. When it was still really hard to design a website. She had it professionally designed many moons ago. Well, first of all could you do me a favor and just tell me what happened.ĪLEX to PJ: So Alisa emailed me and said, 'What would you say to a person that has done the the ultimate stupid thing?'ĪLEX: So I was thinking, 'Wow.'So Alisa had this website. And she had a website that she had made to basically promote her writing.ĪLEX: I am good. She is, she works at a college but in her spare time she is a young adult writer. Are you ready?ĪLEX GOLDMAN: I got an email from a woman named Alisa Libby. Lace my loafersĪnd crawl under someone’s desk because it's time for 'Super Tech Support.' Alright PJ.

I'm Alex Goldman.ĪLE: Alright it’s time for me to put on my khakis. All right, enjoy the show.ĪLEX: From Gimlet, this is Reply All. Throughout the course of recording this story, every single person-both hosts and guests-used the word barter when they meant bargain.
