4.2 out of 5 stars from 26 ratings
  • Great tech discussion

    Tech “thought leadership” in the best sense. Rich and Paul are thoughtful about how AI and other new tech can be useful, and they don’t fall for hype. Good banter. Currently it’s one of two podcasts that I actually listen to every episode of.
