Ed's Take: Recent Episodes
Edwin Popham
Ed's Take is a casual take on current sports, technology and culture news. It has a uniquely Kiwi and Aussie flavour but covers items from all over the world. I discuss topics that interest me and sometimes seek the input of friends and family to get a more well rounded take. For sports I'm a big fan of the Basketball, Rugby, and Rugby League. I'm a software engineer by trade and a sucker for tech gadgets. I also enjoy a good binge watch and gaming session.
