The First Ransomware

On The Brewhaus we talk about technology, programming, and entrepreneurship. Nothing is off limits! From Microcontrollers to Mainframes, Starting a business to buying one, we get into the weeds and talk about it all. Maybe you’re interested in Cryptocurrency, we talk about the tech that powers it! What about how technology is used in education, yep we do that too. The Brewhaus is at least one show a week, Mondays is general subjects, Wednesdays are the top Tech stories around the world, Thursdays we have the movie reviews! So come listen to the podcast that was banned from Youtube for asking questions about data privacy. Or just come by and listen so you can come to twitter and tell me I am wrong. Let’s start a conversation! Have something interesting to talk about, hit me up on twitter and let’s do a show together! Twitter: @brewhaususa
