Joi beams into the IAH podcast and engages in the razor sharp and wildly intelligent observations that you'd expect from Joi. We talked about the history of tech and it's not so democratization, the Arab Spring case studies, the new global economies and so much more. So thrilled to have him on, it doesn't get much better than this.
