Episode 38 - Live long & prosper

Listen Later

During Episode 38, we were saddened to learn of the passing of Leonard Nimoy who was best known for his role as "Dr. Spock" on Star Trek. His catchphrase of "Live long & prosper" will never be forgotten. RIP Mr. Nimoy.

On a lighter note, we had some interesting things to discuss on Episode 38 regarding Apple, Pebble, Rent-A-Center & Qualcomm so grab something good to drink, sit back and enjoy the show!
