Enjoyable, informative, a must-see

These tech podcasts are really well produced. They include a wide range of technology from food technology to the latest developments in smart technology in the home. The opinions are insightful and highly informative. The length of the "Daily Charge" is ideal for any commute. The critical analysis of topics is just right for that length of podcast and you get a good sense of what works and what doesn't work about a piece of tech.

The mix of presenters works so well. You can even subscribe to the video podcast to see them in the show. They all bounce ideas of each other and engage in healthy discussion and debate. We have the ever-angry Alfred "There were no highs for me" Ng. He is complemented by the steady hand of Ben Fox Rubin trying to restore balance to every discussion. We have the warmth and subtle wit of Bridget Carey. We have Joan E. Solsman (The 'E' must stand for extra insight, extra intelligence, extra sharp reporting). Roger Cheng is like the wise man steering the ship. And last but not least we have the resident hottie Richard Nieva. Other presenters add their own special something to the mix.

Do listen to this podcast and add some colour to your day!
