Martechvibe looks at some martech podcasts that have been helping marketers keep up with the latest trends and technology

The business industry has been quick to use podcasts as a marketing medium to share knowledge with relevant, niche audiences. On the other hand, marketers themselves tune into shows to help them keep up with the latest marketing, technology, and business trends.
