The Scoop Podcasts
The Scoop is a weekly technology business podcast produced by Filtered Media for The Australian Financial Review and MIS Magazine, hosted and produced by yours truly. You can listen to each week’s show at misaustralia.com/thescoop, check us out on the iTunes Music Store under business podcasts, or subscribe via RSS here.
The show is based on a panel format. Each week, I invite business leaders and CIOs from the technology industry to join me for a 30 minute conference call to discuss a topic that’s making news. Our goal is to become Australia’s most popular business podcast for technology leaders.
We’ve had thousands of downloads, and in late 2007 rose to the lofty heights of being the number one business podcast on iTunes (ranked by downloads) when “father of the Internet” Vint Cerf appeared on the show.
Two regular guests and friends of mine appear on most of the shows: Foad Fadaghi, technology editor, BRW, and Mark Hollands, Asia Pacific director of sales, Dow Jones.
