We’re finally back at home after a stressful couple of days. Thankfully the family, our home, and our neighborhood are safe. We’re not quite out of the woods as fires rage on and winds will fluctuate, but we’re getting a bit of calm now.

We have some tech news to cover, and gadgets to chat, but I’m going to let the viewers take the wheel on this one.

Let’s get our tech week started right!
