On this episode I had the pleasure in speaking with content creator and Playstation Platinum Hunter Jono Pech about our experiences growing up and using social media / social networking platforms (the pros, cons, and everything in between), as well as our everyday dependency and habbits with our mobile phones.  

Hope you guys enjoy the episode and the honest conversations shared. Let Jono and I know if you did, keen to hear your feedback - Much Love! :-)
