A volatile market, advancements in tech, and a dynamic social structure overshadowed by the pandemic: it is clear 2020 has been a crazy year. But how can we quantify and identify patterns through our ever changing world? Our purpose in creating this podcast is to educate on the latest advancements in different fields such as tech and finance. We aim to provide you with information we have gathered and synthesized from top sources whilst rounding it out in an entertaining display. Most importantly, all from the perspective of high school students. It's easy to get lost in an age of misinformation and a seeming obligation to be aware of all the issues in the world. Together, we can make sense of it all.
