Ep.231 - Podcasting @ 20 & Windrush 75

"What's Good?" W/ Charlie Taylor

In a week where:

1. An Indian official is suspended after draining an entire reservoir to retrieve his phone.
2. A train crash in India kills more than 280 and injures at least 900.
3. Manchester City win the FA Cup.
4. Universal Basic Income of £1,600 will be trialled for 30 English residents.
5. The PGA "merges" with Saudi-owned LIV Golf.

In Tech: (5:24) I've recently gotten into alternative applications that do one random thing. But one can quickly snowball into many. So do we really need all these apps?

In Media: (25:11) This year marks 20 years of Podcasting being a thing. I've personally been into it for over a decade and adding to the deluge for nearly half that. So how did Podcasting get here?

In Life: (40:22) I constantly think about the past in some fashion, whether it be general history or personal history. And as I get older, I wonder how many memories get lost in the sands of time and if it's possible to gain memories back.

Lastly, in Society: (51:41) This year marks 75 years since HMT Empire Windrush came to Britain and began the journey of the Windrush Generation. So it's time for another recognition of the event and the people (including me) that continue the story.
