Stewart and Travis spend an awful long time reminiscing about the terrible, horrible days of using customer relationship management (CRM) solutions in the field and then muse on the future of smartphone-driven selling. We're then joined by CRM pioneer Jon Ferrara, who tells us that the past is broken, and the future is golden. Oh, and Jon forgets that visual jokes don't translate well on an audio podcast, but we love him all the more for it.

This week, Stewart and Travis take a massive swipe at the mess Google's video-calling strategy is creating, the joy Google's app advertising strategy is creating, and the sudden death of Blab. We then talk with the ever-clever Roland Smart about marketing tech, mobile, and the battle that's raging between marketers and engineers.

Travis and Stewart get excited about the new app sharing economy this week. What do we mean by that? Apps within apps, people, and we’ll tell you why you should get seriously pumped about this trend, too.

And then we interview Peter Dering, who was just about to launch his sixth successful Kickstarter campaign at the time we interviewed him. That's right - sixth! He tells us how he made it all work (hint: radical transparency helps).

This week, Stewart and Travis talk about one important news item: Instagram Stories. That's right - the Snapchat copycat has arrived on our mobile devices, and we break down what it does, what it doesn't, and why it is perfect for re-enacting '80s VHS tape covers.

We then interview Shira Abel, who schools us on marketing debt, putting marketers in the boxing ring with the engineers, and why mobile is everything.

Stewart and Travis take a stab at understanding what is going on at Apple in a week where everyone announced their latest results, and we wonder whether Snapchat will grind to a halt soon as it adds yet another 3D solution to its stable.

We then soak in the knowledge of Vala Afshar who schools us in everything from mobile to marketing, digital IQs to data science, and why culture is more important than technology.
