After a one and a half year hiatus, the Verdict Podcast is back. But this time, things are a little bit different.
To match our shift in editorial focus, from current affairs to technology, we have changed the format of the Verdict Podcast.
Go deeper with GlobalData
In each episode, we’ll take a look under the hood of the tech world. Whether it’s Big Tech, Elon Musk’s latest antic, or wondering whether AI will replace us all, we’ll be doing our best to make sense of it all.
We’ll attempt to separate hype from disruptor, in an industry overflowing with buzzwords. We’ll also give an insight to how we as journalists – with help from experts at the heart of the industry – wade through a multitude of tech stories to find out what will actually have a lasting impact.
Stay tuned for the first episode – and follow us on Spotify to hear it first – but for now, see below for a trailer explaining why now – thanks to Ted Cruz – is the right time to relaunch the Verdict Podcast.
