If you're looking for another over-scripted and edited podcast, this is not it. But if you want to listen to honest and unfiltered discussions about the latest in tech and its impact on society, welcome, you have come to the right place.

This is Another Podcast where two friends and colleagues discuss their overlapping experiences and perspectives on what happens in technology. We might know some of the same things, yet we also have different backgrounds and expertise, or at least, we ask different questions.

Benedict Evans has worked in equity research, strategy and venture capital and owns lots of old phones; Toni Cowan-Brown works at the intersection of tech, policy and politics.

    Google Gemini and AI bias

    Google Gemini and AI bias

    Are there questions that an AI chatbot shouldn't answer? Should it always give the 'right answer'? Are you sure? Google has egg on its face this week, but this isn't easy, and with generative AI, we're going to re-run all the arguments and panics we had over content moderation in the last decade.

    Breaking and remaking media

    Breaking and remaking media

    We’re past peak TV, the charts are curving down, and Hollywood is pretty sure that streaming was a bad idea. On the other hand, music is growing strongly and might even end up bigger than CDs. Why have newspapers, books, movies, TV and music coped so differently with the internet?

Decent takes on tech happenings

Ben Evans has some good takes on tech. Pithy one-liners like “Amazon is a bundle” and “AI is software that doesn’t work yet”. Toni is a pretty poor podcaster host but a good foil for Ben. Generally worth a listen and as an aside it’s amusing to see another one of those guys who can’t seem to stand Elon Musk.

Great podcast!

I really enjoy it, but Benedict you need to get a real microphone! It sounds like you’re just using your laptop’s built in microphone
