This episode is straight out of the "why didn't I think of that" file.  5 years ago, Mitch Gardner was a college kid staring at his phone too much. Now, he's a tech entrepreneur whose app to get people off their phones has millions of users. How did he do it?  Two words: free stuff.  The Pocket Points app rewards users with discounts on everything from pizza to Vans shoes for staying off their phone. And, it's becoming a big deal on high school campuses where teachers are crediting the app for longer attention spans and increased learning. On this Dying to Ask, how two college guys came up with the next big thing at, wait for it, a bar. The extremely well known app their biggest investor passed on before sinking serious cash into Pocket Points. And, think you have the next thing big thing? How to make an app a reality.
