This month, Cliff and Adam continue the new format of discussing stories throughout the month that needed a bit more love. First, we discuss Ships of the Northern Fleet or #SOTNF, the show that never was. Then we took some time to talk about the OxygenOS and the OnePlus 10 Pro. Would you put your ID into your iPhone? E3 got canceled while we recorded and we talked about it in real-time. Finally, we wrapped it up with Apple sabotaging its own hardware and more!

This week, we're looking at the OnePlus 10 Pro, which is OnePlus's latest flagship. OnePlus has come a long way from its scrappy startup roots, but is the merge with Oppo causing OnePlus to lose its luster? We've got Nick Gray from Phandroid along to talk about it. 

Plus we have a neat Tech Yeah item, the Ear Fun Free Pro 2 ANC earbuds with wireless charging for less than $50.Get an extra 12% off with this discount code: EFP2OLUV3

Beyond foldables, another Michael Fisher passion is Star Trek. When the opportunity to take a Star Trek themed cruise came up, he combined his love of space ships and ships of the sea and set sail for seven days. He came onto the podcast to tell us all about it. It's an adventure at sea, and we even work in a Ghostbusters #TechYeah!

This week, Cliff and Adam get together to talk about the company that happens to be named Nothing. Carl Pei took to the stage this week and gave us a hint at things to come. Some of them made sense, others, not so much. So we got together to chat about it. 

Plus our tech yeah of the week comes from Cliff and it features Nothing's only current product, the Nothing Ear (1) earbuds.

Adam's voice is trash this week, so there's a shortened news segment. For our top story, Cliff and Adam discuss the Lenovo Legion 5i gaming laptop. This is a real powerhouse of a laptop, but it's not perfect. There are a few peccadillos here and there, but overall this is pretty great. No tech yeah this week either, but hopefully the pipe will be back up and running soon.

This month, we're talking to Domenico Lamberti, a friend and fellow tech reviewer who's been around the block a few times. He's also majorly into 3D printing which is where most our conversation takes place. Dom has been in the 3D printing game for years and is something of an authority on the subject. From different types of filaments to building your own 3D printer, this is the guy to talk to.

This week, Adam and Cliff experiment with a new format. Instead of focusing on top stories of the month, many of which Cliff already participated, we spend the first half of the show focusing on two news stories from the month that needed more love. The first is a fake company in London with dozens of employees around the world. The second is a new design in the world of VR. Then we checked in with Russell Holly on what he looks for in a potential employee and finally, we check in on OnePlus and how its image has changed and whether or not it's a good thing.

Nick Sutrich sits down with Adam and Clif to talk all about the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. This Galaxy Note successor. Adam, Cliff, and Nick all have the phone and get together to compare notes.

Cliff and Adam discuss their favorite headlines coming out of MWC. The Lenovo Thinkpad goes mobile, insane 240W charging is coming, OxygenOS is sticking around, Mediatek has some new hardware, Poco's got some awesome hardware coming, and TCL is showing off some neat foldables…again…still…whatever.

Plus we have a kinda-sorta tech yeah in the form of the Satechi USB-C Hybrid Multiport Adapter and Western Digital 500GB WD Blue 3D NAND Internal PC SSD.

This week, Cliff and Adam look at the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5. This is the second generation of Lenovo's convertible Chromebook. They loved the first generation which provided a great experience for a great price point. This time, the cost is higher, but there are some notable improvements as well. Adam's been using it for a few months now, and he's ready to share some thoughts. 

Plus, we have a tech yeah item that is showing up in bedrooms around the world. Govee strip lights provide a lot of utility and value for a set of strip lights that can make your room look super slick
