How to make it in digital media if you're not an AI agent
On this week's episode, Stephen and Daniel discuss the downfall of niche digital media in light of Android Central's shutdown and the reshaping of the media landscape in general. Plus, Stephen falls in love with his AI agent, and Daniel tries not to let Paw Patrol into his house — again.

We're so back
The boys are back in town (literally and figuratively) after some much-needed R&R. This week marks season 2 of Old's Cool (why? why not) and Stephen and Daniel talk about the new Motorola Signature 27 and how any company not named Apple or Samsung is going to have a tough time competing in this economy.
Plus, the iPhone Duo, the latest AI news, and lots more.

Talking to myself
On this week's episode, Stephen and Daniel make up for lost time (sorry for the missed week — life got in the way) by diving into the week's latest news, including the introduction of new Sonos speakers and an updated software platform. Do people actually want to talk to their speakers using AI? Sonos thinks so. And why hasn't modern tech killed the fax machine?
