If you have used a Windows desktop or laptop since 2009 you’ve probably have used Windows 7.

Windows 7, we hardly knew ye…

Some of you might have even used Windows 8 (one or two of you might even have liked it). But, alas, all things come to an end. Join Jonathan, LD, and Sam as we discuss this!

Why buy when you can lease? Or why lease when you can buy?

Subscription Software

Why are there so many subscriptions now? Well, there is a reason whether you like it or not. And we talk about that! From Adobe to Microsoft to Quicken…

We’ve been off for two weeks thanks to the holidays!

Catching up with 2023!

Well, nothing happened, right? Nope! The world keeps on turning despite Christmas and New Year’s. We talk about stuff that’s popped up in the news over the past two weeks and CES! Join Jonathan, LD, and Sam as we kick off (belatedly) the new year!

It’s a New Year (hopefully not refurbished), and we’re bringing it in playing catchup with what we missed the past two weeks.

Catching up, CES 2023, and more

Gadgets and gizmos and things we can’t believe that were invented yet make sense.

Additionally, Sam contacted his local representatives about Right to Repair in Hawai’i. Did he get a reply? Yes he did! We read that on-air too.

Once again we look to see if we can predict the future!

Our 2022 Predictions

Our track record is spotty but the Magic 8-ball doesn’t really help with tech questions. Sam and Jonathan have 6 predictions apiece with LD having 5. How did we do? Well, tune in!

Listener mail? Viewer mail? We never agree on that…

Viewer Mail – December 2022!

Anyhow, we go through your emails to us and answer your questions! We read your atta-boys! We embarrass LD with your well-wishes! It’s great!

Also, we find out who wins the fantastic Altec-Lansing Bluetooth speaker from our friends at the Kahului OfficeMax!

Emergencies happen. Life throws curveballs. Murphy’s Law goes into effect at the worst possible moment.

Planning For the Rough Spots

What do you do when you or a loved one has a medical emergency (or worse)? Life doesn’t stop for anyone, so we talk about keeping things going while trying to navigate a tough situation.

LD Reynolds has long been a fixture in the Maui radio scene.

Welcome Back, L.D!

DJ, engineer, show host, HAM operator, and more! We talk to him about his illustrious past, his history, and how we all met! He’s a beloved part of the show and we wanted to share his awesomeness with you.
