EPISODE #59: The Mega Pod is here! We’re off next week for the 4th of July, so we figured we’d leave you with some extra content to carry through the break. First up, an instant reaction to the train wreck that was the Presidential debates. We had to wake up early on Friday morning and record a reaction for you guys. Solana & Producer Matt discuss (What up Matt!) Then, back to your regularly scheduled pod episode. Martin Shkreli joins the show to discuss all the betting markets reaction to Trump coin and the downfall of TechCrunch. We are then joined by Kian Sadeghi & Delian Asparouhov to discuss Nucleus Genomicsm, the all-in-one DNA test. Next up, fire alarm enthusiast, Jamaal Bowman, gets voted out in NY and AOC makes a fool of herself at the rally. Finally, Trump promised green cards for all college graduates. Is this a good idea? Makes sense? Hope so. Enjoy!
