    The Rise and fall of Snapchat (and the rise again)

    "I'll be back" said the terminator as he descended into a pool of molten steel. And indeed does come back in the sequel. Much of this is like what happened with Snapchat. A poster child for "in-the-moment" moments, to being carbon-copied and still being relevant - what is Snapchat doing right? We discuss Bitmoji, spectacles, snap mini and games and our personal opinions on each of these items. Tune in! Also, heres one open ad to Ishan's other podcast, Kulcha Shock.

    Podcasts as a product - What Why How

    In this episode of Just Product things, Abbas and Ishan discuss Podcasts as a product. From humble beginnings to still being relevant (more so now), Podcasts seem to that product which never says never. In the fight to reign the content space, podcasts are still relevant and we dig deeper to understand why that is. Listen in to find the origin story, the not-so-new tech and what possibly are motivators for the surge podcasts have seen in the last 3 months. Also, since Ishan speaks about how ads in podcasts work, heres one shamelessly open ad to his other podcast, Kulcha Shock
