Let's Talk Tech
Facebook drops as a news source WHILE more companies look to pull their advertising from the platform. Dish might be looking to drop the Boost Mobile deal, which was an important part of the Sprint / T-Mobile merger. WWDC is happening TODAY!
And we need to chat about how pretty the LG Velvet is!
Let’s get our tech week started right!

It feels wrong calling a video like this a “review”, when I still haven’t gone hands on with a retail unit, but I figured we could share some thoughts!
The Xperia 1ii is a beast of a phone. Let’s dig in! Continue reading “Xperia 1ii Review: Not QUITE the Full Review…”
Our second return appearance on this show!
My pal, podcaster extraordinaire, Adam Doud is back!
Adam is a passionate advocate for the art of podcasting, but from his first appearance on Creator Chat to now, he’s changed up his production.
Previously working under another company’s media umbrella, those older podcasts were discontinued. Adam had a lot to say about those podcasts getting closed out, and what it was like striking out on his own to start up his new show, The Benefit of the Doud podcast.

The human brain reacts to loot boxes in pretty much the same way as slot machine gambling.

Following up on Twitter labeling 5G misinformation, and does this make Twitter a “publisher”? Google getting sued for tracking your incognito browsing. The FCC is about to pour money into the hands of ISPs with ZERO accountability for real broadband improvements. LG and Samsung set to deliver mid-range 5G options in the USA.
And we should probably chat about this PlayStation 5 thing all the kids are hip to…
Let’s get our tech week started right!

I admit to being spoiled as a gadget reviewer. Even reviewing phones at the mid-range these days, we’re treated to POWERFUL pocket computers. We should try to stay as well versed at the entry level as we cover the mid-range and premium tiers.
What should we expect from a pocket computer when prices fall well below $200? The Stylo 6 has some surprisingly powerful features to offer. Continue reading “LG Stylo 6 Review: It doesn’t FEEL like a CHEAP phone!”
Our first return appearance on this show. My buddy Enobong Etteh from BooredatWork is dropping by to follow up on our previous conversation. Making changes to a channel can be stressful. BooredatWork pivoted on smartphone and gaming content, and E had a lot to share about how his audience reacted to that change in coverage.
E also had some feelings to share on the current political issues facing our country, on the protests, and how it’s affecting the tech community. We’re going to be discussing some raw topics, but Enobong’s style is always thoughtful and considered.
