Weekly Round Up #39: Twitter job cuts, Hydrogen cars, Rage and Pepsi smartphone

Welcome to Weekly Roundup, our podcast discussing the latest tech trends, innovation and news from the last few days.

This week on BurnCast, Stuart Thomas sits on the host’s chair, and joining him is Gearburn Editor Andy Walker, Staff Reporters Jacques Coetzee and Graham van de Made and Nick Thomson, our Sales Manager.

The team discusses Twitter’s 300 job cuts and Jack Dorsey’s seemingly huge task of turning the Twitter ship around before it crushes and burns, wonders what is the future of Hydrogen fueled cars in a market like South Africa, takes a look at Rage and all its great and not so great moments and closes off with looking at the Pepsi smartphone.

This week, we also introduce a new feature, ‘What are you watching/reading/playing’, where the Memeburn team talks about what they are watching, reading and playing.

And as always Tweet of the week closes the podcast. This week, the tweet is from a chicken.
