Want Molly Wood on DTNS More Often?

Molly Wood sits at a bar holding a coffee cup. Presumably it is full of rants. Molly Wood is the single most frequently mentioned guest in our surveys! So, we listened! We got Molly to agree to come on DTNS for “Molly Fridays” once a month. She’ll bring her amazing tech perspective AND participate in our Friday quizzes.

BUT

To make this happen we need a few more Patrons.

So, if we hit 4,000 paid patrons by June 29th, we’ll start the next day, June 30th, with our first Molly Friday!

Sign up now and make Molly Fridays happen!
