  • Love this!

    While there’s certainly a place for tech podcasts aimed at general audiences, they get boring for people who work in the area. I LOVE that this is aimed at NLP researchers! (And as I write this, I wonder if a sentiment analysis system would classify this review as positive or negative XD)
