  • Generally I good show

    - openings are too much not telcom but once you get to telcom it’s great

    - the discussion in Israel protests was interesting and I found myself, as a fellow white man, thinking how privileged your comments were. It’s easy to condemn protesters when we’ve literally had to fight for nothing.

  • Too long and not accessible for all

    I’m a woman who is about to start a job in telco. This podcast had some great titles but I found it totally inaccessible 1) it’s far too long and you have to sift through lots of inane chat before you get to any useful content 2) the inane chat is centred around things like football which makes it extremely off-putting to someone like me who is not interested in football. It’s a shame as it could be very useful if properly edited and if a wider audience was considered in its creation.

  • Mostly great!

    Really informative when the hosts stick to their area of expertise, I.e. telecoms. Not so great when they veer into adjacent subjects like net neutrality or Sec 230, their lack of in-depth knowledge in those areas becomes quickly apparent. The best episodes are when they bring on execs from telecoms companies.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

6G, mobile data and Nokia
Q: What’s the main argument of your book?
The main argument is that we should focus more on what people actually want from their mobile phone, which is always connected service and lower costs rather than pushing for advanced specifications without addressing basic needs.
Microsoft, public cloud and 5G
Q: What are the characteristics of 5G that you can use to generate value?
5G brings opportunities for monetization through AI, network automation, and developing differentiated experiences for users.
6G, regulation and Ericsson
Q: What changes have been noted in telecommunications as we transition from 5G to 6G?
There's an increasing focus on societal and sustainability concerns, alongside traditional technical advancements like speed and capacity.
6G, regulation and Ericsson
Q: What do you cover at 6G World?
6G World covers how to prepare for the deployment of 6G technologies, including business models, regulations, and ensuring technology can be monetized.
Network X, APIs and 6G
Q: Tereza, to you, what did you get from all that? Are you getting your head around all this API stuff?
Yeah, to an extent, as everyone I think. But I thought there was kind of an interesting contrast between Dario, who was presenting a positive picture about the industry, and someone from Deutsche Telekom who pointed out the slow progress.
