Welcome to our new podcast show, The Weekly Roundup.

At the end of every week, we’ll bring you a roundup of what’s been happening in the world of tech and startups. We gather the latest articles and trends from VCs, as well as interest pieces from around the web and, of course, the down and dirty need-to-know news from the week.
