In this episode you will hear everything about the vibe of
connections in Austin's tech scene. Thom Singer sits down
with Marc Nathan (arguably the most connected person in Austin) to
talk about the state of networking in the Texas capital city.

we can all improve in getting the human connection side of business
back to the forefront.
