  • Glued to the 2024 Summer Olympics? What you won’t see on TV is Athlete 365, an AI chatbot for the 11,000 athletes, powered by Intel. Joining us to share the deets is Asma Aziz, Marketing Lead for the Americas at Intel.
  • If you take walks around your neighborhood, how cool would it be to be paid to do so? I catch with Yves Benchimol, CEO of WeWard, an app that lets you redeem your steps for cash, gift cards, or donations to charities
  • I also sit down with esports athletes, Rafel “Crush” Davis, the Raptors Uprising Gaming Club’s (RUGC) power forward, and Coach Nick, to chat about the importance of a great gaming monitor – including the LG UltraGear OLED family
  • We’re not quite done yet, folks. Tech life expert Stephanie Humphrey also joins us to talk about cool tools for school!
  • Thank you to Intel, Visa, and Western Digital
