  • Gender bias???

    I just subscribed, and wow, was I in for a shock? Listening to the male co-host emphasize that Beyoncé should only launch products related to being a mom was shocking the outright gender bias is wild. Tech is notorious for racial and gender disparities, so hearing these comments, which were co-signed by other host, is a huge red flag. It’s a no for me based on the explicit bias.

  • Refreshing!

    I found the podcast via insta reels and am soooo happy. I wish I found it sooner. They actually share their thoughts on the latest news vs just interviewing the new tech CEO in the market. Refreshing!

    They also don’t shy away when sharing thoughts and opinions about sustainability and social impact when it comes to the latest tech 👌🏾

    I started from ep 1 but may need to listen to the latest episodes because it really feels like you’re a fly on the wall listening to good friends discuss things... more

  • Brilliant! Exec normies (like me) should listen.

    Great insights from Abadesi & Michael across a broader range of subjects than I hoped. Helps me understand my late teenage kids moving into the work place, and highlights the very real challenges of diverse and underserved communities.

    Mansplain alert… Michael… it is UNscrupulous - having or showing no regard for what is right or honorable, i.e. devoid of scruples.

    Scrupulous is the opposite.
