About this Episode

This week’s episode brought to you by Comic Book Pitt, Slice on Broadway, and Alex Kahrs Design & Media!

It was rather fortuitous that Brian Crawford of the River's Edge happened into the studio on Podcast Day. What better than to get him set up with Sorg and Chilla as we talk this week's tech news, including:

  • Chilla is sharing the Ring video doorbell as his Awesome Thing of the Week.
  • Chilla is talking about the Ring doorbell depth sensor.
  • We're discovering the networking opportunities with the Ring video doorbell.
  • Brian is sharing his Fire TV Cube as his Awesome Thing of the Week.
  • Brian is also sharing the Ignite Pro bluetooth PA system as an extra Awesome Thing of the Week.
  • Sorg's Awesome Thing of the Week is gaming related with some Twitch updates.
  • Project Rush is now Premiere Rush.
  • There's a sweet Mario Kart bar in Toronto.
  • WIRED + Apple TV = A new way to watch WIRED content.
  • Have some screenshots you're trying to clean up and fit into product demos on every Apple device? Someone has created a shortcut just for you!
  • Chilla is talking about some interesting recipe shortcut scripts you can run on your devices.
  • Have an Apple device? Their original shows may be free, as long as you're using the TV App.
  • Chilla is impressed with Apple device parental control options. He's looking for Android to step their game up.
