A resource: insightful, current & focused content
★★★★★ in Apple Podcasts by Gromosports from Germany on April 2, 2016
Tough to find more focused, specialist content at the intersection of sports (marketing) and digital/online media + technology. Diversity of guests in terms of both occupation and home-market pretty much guarantees interesting knowledge spillovers. Thanks for days on days of great content Sean
