165 - Salt on the IBC rim


Listen Later

Jem and Justin chat new computers, shop reorganizations, and the joy of Facebook Marketplace finds like conveyors and what was sticky in Justin's new IBC tote. They swap notes on year-end revenue wins, FedEx driver diplomacy, and why thermostats are amazing ROI. Plus: Home Assistant rabbit holes, AI voice chat absurdity, and holiday shipping plans.
