  • Makes privacy INTERESTING

    Aakash makes privacy more interesting to listen to, which is tough for such a subject. He also brings great guests on his show who add a lot of important industry perspectives, but Aakash manages to summarize their views in easy to understand snippets. Looking forward to more episodes on AI and Blockchain in particular!
