IT in the D

Episode 140 featured some great conversations about machine learning, security, the metro Detroit area, how Detroit stacks up...and doesn't...against other cities around the area.  Where Detroit is falling down, even in the midst of the resurgence underway, and what absolutely, positively has to change if things are every going to really get any better...

How is it that every week we manage to have our new favorite episode?  Not sure, but not going to question it either.  As we were joined for a spirited, fun and insightful night of conversations with Erika and Elyse from Detroit Labs, Michael from Total Geekdom and his lego computers, and the Organic dating app taking a new approach to the genre, episode 139 of IT in the D was an absolute blast...

Have to say, this was one of our favorite episodes in a while.  Three great guests that we could've probably spent an entire episode with each, good conversations on a little current events, some local politics, a few fun events coming up in the area, actually thought provoking topics...really can't ask for much more than that.  But then that's what we should've expected with Andre from HITEC, Dan from Visit Detroit, and Terry, a pro wrestler who's running for office in Dearborn...
