Thank you for all you do to spread the gospel.

This is the only podcast I listen to in order to find where technology is going in the future. I would like to have a special two hour version with AWG's wife with all mail in questions. Don't chicken out on that.
Apple Podcasts5Brad #15412United Statesa month ago - Outstanding
Really compelling “cannot miss” AI and Technology updates on the regular. IMHO not political like some other ‘Tech’ pods — and based on data — and with a splash of appreciated optimism! Thank you, Peter and thanks to your mates and guests and the entire team! Keep going!
