Episode Description
Main Show starts at 7:05
It looks like a divestment of TikTok in the US. What does that look like and what would it mean? Neon Mobile pays users to record their phone calls and then sells that audio to AI companies to train models. Would you sign up? Is Apple finally giving in and bringing touchscreens to the MacBook Pro? And Nate Lanxon gives us a first-hand review of the new Apple AirPods Pro 3.
Starring Sarah Lane, Tom Merritt, Robb Dunewood, Nate Lanxon, Len Peralta, Roger Chang, Joe.
