Clubhouse is Internet 1.0 of Talk Radio. Ten years before the internet browser was invented, Talk Radio became popular for similar reasons: ease in distribution and proliferation of content.

Clubhouse follows the rules of Internet 1.0, meaning it is not using the properties of digital to their full advantage. This is why it faces challenges in helping users find content and enable engagement.
