This week Dan and Dara are joined by Lace-Chantelle Rogers to discuss why it's important to link GA4 to BigQuery as soon as possible. They cover the various ways that BigQuery is an amazing tool to take your analytics to the next level, and all of the things you'd want to do in BigQuery depend on having a set of historic data to query.

This week Dan and Dara discuss the relevance of the Google Sheets connector for GA, and if GA4 not having one will be a bid deal or not. They get into the use cases it fulfils for UA and how/if tools like Google Data Studio, BigQuery and the GA4 explore workspace will be able to fill the gap.

This week Dan and Dara have their first guest Mark Rochefort, Technology and Operations Director at Measurelab. They discuss why being impartial is vital in marketing analytics and the skills becoming more important to spot unconscious and conscious biases when working with data.

This week Dan and Dara discuss how the access to 'real' data in Google Analytics (UA and GA4) is becoming more limited due to technology and legislation changes. They think about what this means to people using analytics platforms like GA that are used to having access to all their data, and how this may change we use data in these platforms in the future.
