Today on the 5: Thanks to a recommendation from Len Kabasinski I watched a very odd movie from the dead center of dirty 80s New York City called Delivery Boys. This one turned out to be a very strangely interesting attempt at a boner comedy.

Today on the 5: Amazon recently announced a new health wearable called the Halo. Besides the issues around body image that it immediately raises, I have some more fundamental concerns around this device and what it aims to do.

Today on the 5: The Microsoft Duo is finally getting into the hands of individuals to play with and review. The more I see of it, the more it becomes the one foldable mobile device that I'm actually interested in.

Today on the 5: I've seen an uptick of complaints about YouTube all over lately, and it's likely at least related to how their moderation is working during COVID. My issue isn't the takedowns, it's how bad the restoration process is.

This week we're talking about color perception, Suicide Squad, The Batman, Gotham Knights, Umbrella Academy, and Voyage Of The Rock Aliens. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: I recently went back and rewatched the first season of Star Trek: Picard after rewatching TNG and Voyager to see if my opinion of it changed. It didn't, but I think I have a clearer idea of what I didn't like now.

Today on the 5: It sure seems like Apple is going to be adding a new umbrella service subscription tier as an option in the near future. This type of move makes nothing but sense to me and is potentially great.

Today on the 5: After the announcements of the new Sony and Microsoft consoles, many publishers have committed to providing free or reduced cost next gen upgrades on new games. For those who don't, I'm curious why anyone would buy a second copy of a game?
