It's the Android Police podcast for the week to close out September and we're getting some post-equinox afterburners to complement a hot summer of consumer tech. We spend a bit too long talking about the Google TV Streamer and our unfulfilled need for a decent set-top box before hitting on the Pixel Buds 2 Pro or Pro 2 or Pixel 2 Pro Buds — someone help. A quick whip around the Galaxy S24 FE and some tablets will bring us into Marques Brownlee's Panels problems and what our parasocial paradigms have caused in inflating this mess.
