TechTime with Nathan Mumm

Get ready to unlock the vault of tech's future with us, Nathan Mumm, Mike Gorday, and Odi return with new guests, security wizard Nick Espinosa, and vinous virtuoso technologist Marc Gregoire. This episode isn't just about passive listening; it's an interactive experience where you become an integral part of the TechTime Radio community. We're serving up a blend of hindsight and foresight, assessing our 2023 predictions and stirring the pot with fresh 2024 prophecies while dissecting the latest tech news.
Wrap your head around the titans of tech and their next moves. Will Musk venture into AI, or will Microsoft swoop in on a social media giant? Plus, we can't help but speculate on Marvel's cinematic destiny and whether blockchain and NFTs will rebound in the art and collectible world.
Please pull up a chair at our cybersecurity roundtable, where we unpack the year's most notorious digital assaults. As hospitals wage legal wars with cloud storage providers like Wasabi, we explore the tangled web of ownership, responsibility, and the precarious fortress of data protection. We'll navigate you through the digital quagmire, where the FBI intervenes, and then, we pivot, discussing self-kidnapping via tech and the surreal realm where Disney characters go rogue in horror adaptations.
Remember to connect with us at techtimeradio.com, and cheers to being ahead of the tech curve with us. Remember, "mums the word" on what's next!
