  • Female cohost has unnecessary potty mouth. Very disgusting to hear. Seriously needs a bleep button.

    Why in the world does she have such a dirty potty mouth? None of the guys cuss on a tech podcast. It is so off putting and jarring to hear such unnecessary cuss words from the woman.

I must say I’m enjoying this podcast, I’m late but I’ve been tuning in more often. I know you don’t bill yourself as a finance... more

  • Window to another world

    Maybe the title is exaggerating a bit, but this show definitely gets me to think about tech topics in a way that other shows typically do not. Listening has often been an eye opening experience to considerations I personally have never had to make.
