YourTechReport
YourTechReport is a weekly radio show which airs on SiriusXM channel 167. YourTechReport is hosted by Marc Aflalo and Mitchell Whitfield with regular appearances from Sandeep Panesar. Each week the show discusses the latest in tech news and issues that affect everyone. We dive into important topics and conversations and feature interviews with some amazing guests in the tech world. Our approach is different. When it comes to tech reviews, hands-on reviews, product unboxing, smartphone tips, the latest tablets - we realize that the majority of folks out there don’t know the difference between megapixels and megahertz…they just want to know what they should buy and why--and that’s why we’re here! YourTechReport is dedicated to bringing tech and consumer electronics to the masses in a way that’s not only informative, but accessible to EVERYONE--so we're bringing our SiriusXM show to everyone on YouTube. We'll not only feature the tech products and tech review and companies that WE think are cool, but that we think YOU'LL want to learn about as well. So whether you're looking for a hands-on review, product unboxing, smartphone tips and tricks, news on the latest drones, tablets and video games, or even one of our great tech giveaways (we love doing giveaways!), YourTechReport has something for everyone.
