Warning: Alexa owners might want to be careful watching this week’s episode, especially around 13-15 minutes into the show, when GrepBeat Godfather Joe Colopy may or may not instruct your Alexa device to play a specific song.
Fortunately, guest Nate Branscomb popped in shortly after that to get this episode of The Friday Nooner—sponsored by Whitley Recruiting—back on track.
Nate is the Co-Founder of Cary-based BCombs, which is a CRM (customer relationship management) software platform designed for nonprofits, especially those that mentor youth. BCombs has won both a MICRO ($10K) and SEED ($50K) grant from NC IDEA. We first profiled the startup in December, 2022.
The Friday Nooner
The Friday Nooner covers the week in tech in the Triangle and beyond—when it’s not diving down random rabbit holes—in a fast-paced half-hour-and-change.
This program is produced by GrepBeat and co-hosted by GrepBeat Managing Editor Pete McEntegart and GrepBeat Godfather Joe Colopy.
In addition to this podcast, The Friday Nooner can also be viewed live each Friday at Noon (ET) on LinkedIn, Facebook or YouTube, or watched afterward on those same platforms.
