I keep up with current events in several ways. I regularly scroll through Twitter to get quick updates on breaking news and trending topics. I also enjoy listening to "The Daily" podcast, which provides an in-depth look at one important story each day. Additionally, when I have time in the morning I try to read newspapers to get a more comprehensive view of the day's events from reputable news sources.

Techcrunch is great for headlines but I prefer a mix of trusted sources - WSJ, NYTimes, BBC for deeper coverage. Also a big fan of newsletters like Morning Brew and The Hustle for quick bites and unique perspectives. Twitter Lists are super useful too for curating feeds around specific topics and thought leaders. And of course, can't forget good ol' word of mouth from my network!
