I can’t remember the last time I kept following a podcast this closely. They truly have figured out a good mix of trendy and informative. I’ve learned so many things I wouldn’t have cared to Google but they are definitely relevant in my career or personal life. The only downside is that they don’t release more frequently, I could listen to this pod a few times a week.

Amazing podcast, always pertinent and accessible.

Vass Bednar should be our prime minister!!
