Phenomenal podcast with great hosts

I’ve been following this podcast since the start and no episode has disappointed. Each talk covers an interesting subdomain within tech that you may not have considered before, and both Jenny and Sam are great hosts whose excitement carries through to the listener. I look forward to hearing the new episode each week!
