VentureBeat's What to Think Podcast: Episode 19

Join us for a lively discussion of the week's biggest tech headlines, with intelligent and entertaining co-hosts and a distinguished (and surprising!) roster of guests. Each week's podcast will have two parts, designed to give you the tech news you need to know — plus informative context and new ideas — with a minimum of BS. First, we'll give you the top trends and headlines in the first 3-5 minutes. After that, we'll have a focused, intelligent, rapid-fire conversation with a different guest each week. Each podcast will be 20 to 30 minutes — just perfect for your commute. Or, if you don't have time for the whole thing, you'll be able to get the lowdown in 5 or less. Either way, What to Think is the tech news podcast that stands out by being smarter, funnier, and more to the point than those other bloviating talk shows. Special thanks to New Relic for being our official launch sponsor!
