Today on the 5: About 6 months back I picked up the AirFly Pro 2, a product that is generally used by travelers but had one particular feature that made it appealing to me. The AP2 is typically used as a way to send audio to 2 Bluetooth devices at once, but I use it in the reverse and it's fantastic!

Today on the 5: OnePlus recently announced they will be retiring the Alert Slider that has been a hallmark of their phones for over a decade. The new button has the now expected "AI first" angle, which in my initial reading was a negative. After taking the time to look into it more cloesly, I think this change might be a great update.

Today on the 5: After seeing the cost breakdowns Google unveiled on their AI offerings last week, many people have been somewhat stunned by the pricing. They shouldn't be, because I don't think many ordinary users are going to be ponying up much money for these tools.

Today on the 5: For our commentary film this week, Lando and I decided to watch a 1985 film titled Crimewave. I last saw this movie over 25 years ago and didn't remember much of it. Now that I've rewatched it, it's pretty clear why I forgot a lot of it.

This week we're talking about Apple ads, Common Side Effects, A Minecraft Movie, Nightmare At Noon, and Mad God. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: Inevitably, Adobe has joined the ranks of compaånies raising prices with the addition of AI features as a the justification for it. That part of their annoucnement was completey predictable, but another bit of detail within it surprised me.

Today on rthe 5: FBC Firebreak is due out in just about a month, which means a lot of early preview pieces have appeared. I've read quite a few of them now, and most are pretty positive about the game. Underneath these warm opinions, there is one potential pitfall I really hope the game avoids.

Today on the 5: I randomly checked on how the Frasier reboot was going, and apparently the answer is not that well. There are lots of opinions on why, but in my opinion the most prominent theories have it backward and point to my biggest issue with reboots and revivals.
