Let's Talk Tech
Ryan Schlieper from Creative Labs is one of my favorite PR folks to nerd out with. A dude who really knows his audio tech, and we’ve spent HOURS just chatting headphones and vinyl. The team at Newegg let us loose on Creative’s new Super X-Fi Headset, and cut down our MUCH longer conversation.
Let’s chat wireless and audio holography. Enjoy!
Comica SIG.LAV review! Smartphone cameras are amazing, but recording audio from smartphones hasn’t evolved as fast as the optics. Comica has a killer solution for iPhone users looking to spruce up their vlogs and mobile journalism projects, but is it a good fit for general consumers making family videos? Let’s take a listen!

A US Senator introduced a Bill against Lootboxes, which I’ve been predicting on this podcast for months now. Amazon takes the wraps off a robot which wraps your packages. iOS 13 might be the end of the road for my precious iPhone SE. Samsung confirms the return of the Galaxy Fold, but details are still light. OnePlus 7 Pro pricing looks right to me.
And let’s take some time to chat about one of the most important phones of the year. My first week with the Pixel 3a.
Let’s get our tech week started off right!
It’s always fun to take a sec, stop, and see how far we’ve come.
I was really excited to fly my Mom in to help produce a video for Newegg. The final vid is an awesome mashup of Trisha Hershberger talking about raising her son with tech, and my Mom talking about how things have changed since I was a kid, while we were staging a mother/son gaming showdown.
In-between setting up cameras, and playing rounds of Tetris, I though it would be fun to ask my Mom some questions about tech and parenting, and the Newegg Ninjas were able to get most of that conversation. So, I’m going to share that in a short little podcast.

CCA C10 review! Less than $5 per driver! What a ridiculous metric to measure the cost of earbuds. CCA packs in a TON of drivers and the total package will cost around $40. This is a crazy brute force build of audio hardware, so how does it stack up to the competition? Let’s take a listen! Continue reading “CCA C10 Earbuds Review: FIVE Drivers per Ear for $40!”
Right to repair war rages on. Lobbyists block efforts in California and Ontario, but Senator Bernie Sanders looks to support farmers rights. Apple might be overstating iPhone battery capacity. The FCC has been grossly overstating broadband adoption. Who should we be able to sue when artificial intelligence goofs?
And let’s chat Google I/O! What are you expecting from the conference?
Let’s get our tech week started off right!

OnePlus 6 one year later! We’re just a couple weeks away from the OnePlus 7 launch. It’s the perfect time to take a look back at last year’s mid-ranger. The first OP of 2018 was a bit overshadowed by the 6T, so how has this phone held up? Was it well supported? How is the resale value holding up? Let’s take a look back, and also share some thoughts on the future of this brand!
