GoTo for Tech and Social News

This is my goto podcast for getting the latest information on helpful apps and social media news. I like it because they ask good questions, and talk about the WHY behind a piece of technology. They both share ideas on how to use these for marketing, have interesting guests on the show and are funny without trying.
