Blendover Episode One Hundred and Ten:
Rick Reid guests as we look into the UFC and what must happen to make the MMA movement grow. We investigate claims of a “1500 Year Old Bible” in Turkey, in articles that propagated social media this week. We look into the band that trolled Spotify for $20K without playing a note, as reported by Tom Cheredar over at VentureBeat. And we debate Snapchat, after this week’s FTC settlement.
Topics Discussed:
- Shout-Outs
- UFC
- The 1500 Year Old Bible
- Shawna Pat
- Spotify and Vulfpeck
- Snapchat
BlendoveR is a fun, hard-hitting podcast where rules are regularly thrown out the window in favor of honest, open commentating opinions. Presented by Greg Davies (cGt2099 from The-TrukstoP.com), and Terr Ciavarra (Media Nox from medianox.bandcamp.com), we stray on to any topic that presents itself or wanders off onto its own tangent.
