Phones Show Chat is
available for free, all year round, every week, with
guests and properly curated content. No ads, no tiers,
just good old fashioned tech podcasting. You can show
your appreciation for PSC (and past videos, current
YouTube Shorts, and my
articles) by signing up to the Virtual Pint of Beer club
or simply donating using the button below:
Trying
a
free giffgaff SIM also helps me, use the button
below (and you get 5 quid free credit!) And, if you buy
from Amazon UK, then go via my affiliate link
(e.g. change your regular Amazon browser shortcut to this,
perhaps?) and I get a small kick-back when you buy
anything in that session. (Ted
also has his own affiliate link here,
plus you can buy
Ted
a coffee directly here.)
Phones Show Chat is also on
