Squeak in Bloomberg's "What is Code?"

Bert Freudenberg
"Smalltalk is a vision of the computer as its own, native medium. The whole system can be modified, by anyone. The dominant version is called Squeak (logo: cute mouse), and a modernized version is called Pharo (logo: lighthouse). Both are free and easy to download."

They even got a Squeak screenshot:
