This week, Lola Oyelayo-Pearson and Mamuna Oladipo are joined by our producer Michael Busse for an unexpected deep dive into blockchain, meme coins, and the wild world of crypto influencers. We discuss how hype fuels blockchain adoption, the ethical dilemmas of Web3, and where fraud fits into it all.

We then shift gears to discuss the current state of tech jobs—how demand is shifting, what the candidate-to-role ratio really looks like, and how the job market is evolving.

Finally, Lola makes her blockchain pitch—why now is the time to build on this new technology, and how beyond the memes, there’s a real opportunity to innovate.
