  • Episode 51: RESET 51 - Amazon Alexa Device and Services Event

    I was easy on that title. It should read, Alexa can now drain your wallet. Amazon released a ton of new hardware and some cool services for automation. I'll not only talk about the new gear but will break it all down and share what I think it all means.
