What‘s New in July and August 2021
Update: 2021-10-03
Description
July and August were very boring months for announcements, so Arjen, JM, and Guy decided to discuss them both in a single episode. They also decided to record before the month actually ended, which doesn’t really behoove them as they missed out on a couple of actually interesting announcements. So those will be discussed in our September episode.
