Today’s talk starts with OS updates. No matter how bad it seems now, the installs and updates of yesteryear were profoundly more wonky and difficult. We reminisce about the days of multi-floppy installs. This leads into a discussion on using the Raspberry pi and programming it to do what you need. Stephen is working on […]
As usual, we have a plan of geek and nerd topics to discuss and we get on and start talking and each topic leads to another and pretty soon we’ve gone on for over an hour! <sigh> First geek problems. Due to so many people using Zoom, there are a ton of backgrounds available. Plus, […]
As usual, we have a plan on items to talk about and end up not even taking a breath on our first topic T-shirts. Strangely, this morphs into a talk on trips and visiting state capitals. As should be expected, the geek topics don’t stop, and we talk about virtual San Diego comic con with […]

It’s funny how we discuss topics for the show and quite often go off the rails and talk about other things. Then there are the times we get several topics and as we discuss them, we realize how much they are related. We start off today talking about addiction. This involves a discussion on the […]
Episode 08 – Comedians and Crisis

We start off after a bit of trouble with sound to get started. Podcasting isn’t always simple and can be frustrating, but at least we can laugh about it. And speaking of laughing, Alan talks about what he and his wife did for her birthday, which didn’t include comedy clubs. There is some discussion on […]

Now that our sound is better because we’ve gotten better microphones, we are working on getting ready for video. I bet you can’t wait. 😉 We start off talking about how the world is going to change for school kids because of coronavirus. This leads us into a discussion on home automation and the options […]

It’s been an interesting week. Stephen’s daughter graduated, and the class of 2020 is definitely different and memorable. They were able to do the ceremony outdoors at a local drive in movie theater. This leads to a talk about watching movies on the side of the house with a good projector. Alan talks about a […]

This week we start talking about investing. Alan recently attended Fool Fest run by the Motley Fool guys and he shares the experience and some info on his investments. With just a bit of work, he has gotten incredible returns on his investment – more than 50%! We then delve into the changes in the […]

Alan and Stephen talk a bit more about Mensa and High IQ. We explore the misconceptions others have about Mensa. We then delve into personality tests and the controversy surrounding these. The a couple of Alan’s achievements are discussed – almost getting in the Guinness Book of World Records but making it into Ripley’s Believe […]
