- Great show but turning into infomercial
This is a great show and Jess knows her stuff. Unfortunately it’s now turned into a bit of an infomercial for Sky, 3 , Heineken and other companies. I don’t mind features but not a spot for a company to say how good they are. Less agenda pieces please 🙏

Ireland3 years ago - Needs a Rethink
Jess is a very likeable and talented presenter, but many of the central interviews are basically just promotions for some of the larger tech companies. The show should focus more on independent and creative tech minds.
