Tech Talks

Carl Dean Tucker is starting a business during the pandemic. Whilst most businesses do their best to stay alive, we chat to Carl about the challenges of being an entrepreneur during Covid-19.

Devika guests on the show to talk openly about the abuse she, and many more women, have suffered. We talk about the strength found in community and how supporting each other gives voice to others. Dave and Jack then ask if men need to be more critical of themselves and others.

One in two women will experience a form of abuse. Why are we not talking about this, why are women scared to speak up or fighting to have their voices heard? Tomorrow's podcast explores what can be done to help with the inspirational Devika Wood.

The fourth episode of our six-part series dives into corporate advertising. Sales people aren't know for their marketing flair, but right now standing out online is key. Victoria Rush talks to us about why she started the show and what she's learnt along the way!

Sophia is on the path to being a CTO, and at the age of 30 she's an award winning engineer and Lead Engineer. She's also set up a project to help people into work (The Donny Job Shop) and started her career as an apprentice Dental Nurse following an unexpected pregnancy. She's a wonderful example that there is no set path to success!

Happy Bank Holiday! Tomorrow's show is an exploring of the pipeline issue, a chat about why parents and teachers might not support young women with aspirations in STEM, and simply a talk with someone who's made a big difference already! Sophia is our guest to talk about her career to date.

Today we are lucky to be joined by William Reeve, CEO of Goodlord. It's a discussion about the platform they're offering agencies, a chat about becoming CEO of a tech company, and a dive into the world of investment in tech. What are the risks associated with our obsession with growth?

Exponential growth is what all tech businesses look for, but with some high-profile casualties and plenty of concern about a tech bubble William Reeve (our next guest) neatly describes what the current market dynamics resemble. He's our guest tomorrow, so do tune in!

The third episode of Your Cast goes right back to the start of the podcast journey with Sonya and Zoha, co-showrunners of new podcast LKKG. It's all about growing up in a traditional environment and wanting to carve your own career and journey.

On the show today, a welcome return to Doteveryone as they publish their 2020 Digital Attitudes Report. So how do people feel about technology at a time when we've never needed it more? I'm afraid there are some concerning stats, but also positive recommendations. It's key the tech industry listens and engages with people to build trust.
