Uptime: Why time's up for mindless scrolling

If 'too much information, too little time'  is the great problem of our age, this business has a 5-minute solution.

Patrick Walker is a veteran of the 'big tech' scene having held senior positions with Facebook and YouTube. But he was moved to go it alone to address the issue of sheer volume of content, and 'hack knowledge' to provide users with briefer and more positive online experiences. Thus, Uptime was born.

In an episode full of fantastic insight and advice, Patrick talks about the importance of pausing when egos might dictate otherwise; how taking time to recruit ensures you capture people "whose purpose becomes their profession"; and having the confidence to "follow your bliss". Plus, in our latest community poll, we reveal the stress-levels of our listeners!

Presented by Andrew Parsonage, with expert analysis from Ollie Collard and Samantha Miles.
