This was not a show about yoga. Instead it was wide ranging back and forth between Dave Davies and me covering a wide range of topics including but not limited to:

- Constant Penguin – Google says it wants to churn the Penguin update filters into its “ever-flux” (always running) algorithm,
- Cloaking via Mobile – Back from the cowboy days of the blackhat comes a more modern method of serving two sets of content to Google and its users,
- Windows 10 update – It’s an even number this time. Oh oh or oh wow?
- Mobilegeddon bigger than anticipated or reported – Well what did you think was going to happen when Google reconsiders the value of pages on the web?
- a Matt Cutts retrospective at SMX Advanced.
- Does Google Associate with Brand Sites for Ranking?
- Googles more than just GoPro partnership.
All in all a great show to produce.
