4.9 out of 5 stars from 1.4k ratings
  • High quality info in a short amount of time. Listen very closely to what he puts out

    Johannes continues to point out trends and indicators I might otherwise have missed.

    I’ve seen a lot of crazy scenarios play out based on data he’s gathered and provided.

    Listen to a few episodes to hear what I mean.

    His podcast also serves as a convenient reminder for Patch Tuesday and iOS updates.

    Yet another great podcast the sociable Dave Bittner has led me to.
