  • Episode 5: Mark Smithivas
    Mark Smithivas is a technologist, and he's probably been on Twitter longer than you. He's also been a stay-at-home dad for more than a decade, and while that shouldn't be unconventional at all, one could argue that it’s still less common that it could be. In this episode, he talks with host Amy Guth about narratives surrounding men and work, double standards, technology, education reform, and more.
