On today's episode, millennials Kwamina & Selorm sit down with Ato Kwamena, a Gen Z to discuss the differences between how Gen Z'ers and millennials use social media and technology. We discover the differences in the motivation of the cohorts and what matters most to them.

S2:E17 “Game of Phones” Sep 10, 2020

Show notes

Gone are the days when smartphone announcements could make us super giddy. Exciting features, remarkable upgrades, eye-rolling gimmicks, etc. Now, smartphone announcements have become very boring, and that is not necessarily a bad thing. It is testament to the remarkable progress we have seen in smartphone technology.

Join Kwamina, Selorm & Nii as they talk about the state of smartphones in 2020.

S2:E16 “La Casa De Appeal” Aug 26, 2020

Show notes

After the internet collectively raised over $55,000 for Ray Styles of Penciled Celebrities, a lot of us have questions, comments, opinions and reservations about crowdfunding, especially when it comes to Ghana.

On this episode, Selorm, Nii and Kwamina discuss the concept of crowdfunding, its inception, prevalence in Ghana, risks, mechanics and other topics that pertain to it.

Enjoy.

S2:E15 “Deliver us from COVID-19” Aug 19, 2020

Show notes

Fun fact: The first 30 seconds of this podcast is from an unreleased episode we recorded over Zoom. As we continue to practice social distancing, delivery services have become very essential in ensuring that we can stay safe but still get to purchase items. On today's episode, we discuss some of the items we order, the services we use, safety protocols we follow and other interesting perspectives. Alternate title: Delivery is the Order of the Day. (Get it?)

S2:E14 “It has been 84 years” Aug 11, 2020

Show notes

Somewhere in April, we recorded an episode (two actually) via Zoom. We could not release them due to sound issues. And so we put it on hold until further notice. Things will get better soon, we thought. We have never been more wrong.

May, June, July have passed. Since we have accepted this is the "new normal", we're coming out of our hiatus. On Founders' Day, we met in person to record a couple of episodes. We had a three hour chat before recording to this episode because sooo much has happened and we wanted to catch up. We ended up talking about any and everything.

It's good to be back! Enjoy this mixed bag!

S2:E13 “Oh no. COVID-19 is in Ghana!” Mar 16, 2020

Show notes

This is the concluding part of the episode that aired last week. Six cases of the Novel Coronavirus have been reported in Ghana. On this episode, we have a look at how viruses spread, debunk a couple of myths, charge our listeners to be cautious without panicking, apps and certain measures you can employ to reduce contact. We also take a trip to the Wet Market in Wuhan to try and understand its origins. We also share a looooong list of movies about viral pandemics you can watch at home while you self-quarantine.

Please note that none of the panelists is a medical professional and so we had to consult before putting information out. Special thanks to Dr. Stanley Biney and Dr. Samuel Owusu-Achiaw for their assistance. If there is anything we state incorrectly or take out of context, please tweet at us @afdtechtalk so we update our notes.

S2:E10 “10,000 reasons to switch to Telegram” Feb 02, 2020

Show notes

WhatsApp may have the numbers but Telegram has the features. On today's episode, Kwamina tries to convince Selorm to switch to Telegram.

S2:E9 “New Year, New Tech” Jan 20, 2020

Show notes

Happy New Year!!! We hope you had a terrific Christmas & you're still on track with your new year resolutions. Haha just kidding, we know you're not. CES is an annual outlandish show held in Las Vegas every January to ring in the new year with respect to new products and technologies in the consumer electronics industry. Our resident geeks have condensed the 5,760 minute show into 49 minutes so don't complain that this podcast is long, you ungrateful hooman. Oh, and be sure to listen to the end, some of the product announcements were HILARIOUS, especially the ones from Charmin.
