Missed the first 3 episodes of the Noonies Podcast Series?

Hacker Noon's annual tech industry awards, The Noonies, are the internet's most community-driven recognition program. Conceptualized in early 2019 — mostly as a ploy to distract readers from the inevitable bugginess of Hacker Noon 1.0, back when we first moved off Medium in July last year — The Inaugural Noonies did such a great job at generating a tonne of good vibes in the community, so we decided to make it an annual thing.
This year, we 10x'd opportunities for Noonies Nominees to start conversations around the ideas they care about be it in the form of interview posts, AMAs, or podcasts.
Below are the first 3 episodes in the podcast series. Enjoy!
You're in #GoodCompany: This year's Noonies are made possible by Sustany Capital.TECH DomainsGrant for the WebSkillsoftFlipside CryptoUdacity, and Beyondskills.
