Episode 109 – New Tech


Listen Later


















Overview



Even though we don’t cover all our chosen topics, we flow between talking about tech topics quite nicely. Stephen just got a new computer to put together and Alan got a new Apple Watch.



In between we discuss old computer games with new tech and we discuss using car tech in ways that hasn’t been done before.



Oh, and what about companies using tech to control their products to a degree that seems unreasonable.



And what would a discussion be without throwing in all the great new shows coming out or the ones we’ve missed and need to binge.
