TFGL Weekly - Pricktivism

  • 40:22
  • July 8th 2018

Jonny was at the wheel this week, so expect hijinks, rambles and plenty of self-deprecation but don’t fear, Ben has returned to deliver his particular style of measured debate...mainly because he wasn’t drinking pints of gin.

This week the gang discuss the benefits of playing on the Trump machine for donations, how people still don’t get how a charity works and some more positive news from one of the big tech players. There’s a rant on codes of conduct and how people just don’t know what to do with them, before we bid farewell to an old robot.
