Weekly Round Up #40: #FeesMustFall movement, YouTube Red, HTC A9 and Back to the Future

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 talks to Gearburn Editor Andy Walker and Staff Reporter Graham van de Made.

The team discusses the #FeesMustFall movement, which has grabbed the attention of everyone in South Africa as well as members of the global activist community, YouTube Red, a new subscription service from YouTube, the HTC A9 aka “the iPhone 6 according to HTC” and Back to the Future.

In the ‘what are you watching/reading/playing/ listening feature’ the team talks about the books they are reading and the games they are playing.

And as always Tweet of the week closes the podcast. This week, the tweet is from the ANC, who cannot seem to put a foot right this week.
