Technolotics on GigaDial Public: Recent Episodes

None

Technolotics is an irreverent look at technology, politics and the media; from two crazed Irish lefties. We're a humorous show which discusses the latest technology and political developments reported online and in the mainstream media, endeavouring to frame them in greater depth (and with less effort at political 'neutrality') than other podcasts.
