Customer Reviews
Love it.
I consider myself a bit of a geek and like to keep up on the latest and great on many things; but I never seem to have time. Now with The Feed I can keep up in my car.
#AmberMac has been the bomb since I first saw her with Leo Laporte on the Canadian version of Call for Help. She's very knowledgable and all thing tech and social media and she very comfortable behind the mic. I don't know much about Michael B but he's growing on me
If you like tech and social media this is the podcast for you.
Love it.
