Listen Later

It was a pleasure to speak with St. Louis Business Journal tech reporter Brian Feldt here in episode 22 of the STLTechTalk Podcast.

Brian handles the TechFlash section for the Journal and is consistently reporting on all of the news related to the booming tech start-up scene here in St. Louis.

Listen in as Brian talks about how he got into journalism and landed the position he is in now. He also was gracious enough to join the News Rundown segment not only to discuss our stories, but he brought some he wanted to talk about himself!

We want to thank Brain again for spending his time with us for this episode!
