Dive into the latest news in tech, innovation and startups with Lucy Young and Larry Boltovskoi. Join the innovation strategist and software obsessive as they discuss and debate the technical, business and societal impacts that this week's tech stories could have.

This week, Lucy and Larry talk about: the spat between Trump and Twitter and the legal implications that may follow; Softbank's timely announcement of a new fund for investing in businesses led by people from minority backgrounds; SpaceX leading the way in private space travel; progress toward a viable sodium-ion battery that could rival lithium-ion batteries and offer large-scale energy storage; bars and pubs relying on tech to help them reopen to customers following coronavirus lockdowns; and robots that could make container shipping a cleaner form of transport. Plus, in our Top 5 feature, we look at the top 5 audiobooks by Audible in the Health and Personal Development Category.
