Customer Reviews
Most useful five minutes of the day
I listen to Dave the first five minutes on the treadmill or stationary bike.
Perfect productive warm up time.
Brings together some of the smartest voices.
This is one of the best podcasts I've ever listened to. It has some of the smartest and most influential people in tech on as guests. It's a window into what they're thinking and where the puck is going for the overall industry.
Downgrade rating
The analysis and incites are still pretty good, but the quantity and quality of ads are obnoxious. Longtime subscriber here and I definitely cannot recommend at this time. I will give it a try again in January to see if quality has returned.
Dave if you want to be a trusted voice do not allow advertisements you do not personally recommend.
