Episode 168: The Sky is the Limit: Yariv Bash of Flytrex

If you had a crystal ball and could see the future of our industry, who'd be delivering the food? Did I say who? What is delivering the food? This isn't going to be a show about autonomous automobiles traveling at 1 mile an hour down the sidewalks in your neighborhood, because I just don't see that getting the job done.

Today we're talking with Yariv Bash of Flytrex, a company using arial drones to deliver food for restaurants in the United States today. Let's take a peek into the not so distant future of food delivery.
