Somewhere on Earth: The Global Tech Podcast

Somewhere on Earth: The Global Tech Podcast - Looking for an alternative to the same old tech podcasts? Well don't worry there's a new show that’s coming to your rescue. This is a weekly show that looks at technology and how it impacts our daily lives. There's untold and unloved tech stories from around the world - from connecting every school in the world to the internet to 3D printing new homes for disaster zones. Plus they're creating a ‘tech for good ecosystem’ where new ideas and technologies can find support and evolve. 

The show is presented by Gareth Mitchell (BBC Digital Planet, BBC Inside Science) with a team of studio experts from London, New York, Sao Paulo and Nairobi, plus questions and comments from listeners. Their aim is to find a story, make it news and change the world (not too ambitious surely?)
