A great listen, even for the uninformed
I am not very familiar with patents and related news stories, but a friend recommended this podcast and I am very glad. This podcast has a great vibe and does a great job of establishing the different stories without being overly technical. I've even been iinspired to start doing my own research for the stories I am unfamiliar with. I look forward to the next episode! :)
