  • I wish you guys could get Steve Guttenburg on the show to talk about audio. Might be interesting.
  • Just an FYI. I was happy to listen to your 2 hour podcast. These are always great for my commute. Great job guys
  • Billy Idol!
  • Jerry couldn't Samsung do multiple iris scans so there would be multiple ways to hold up the phone to your face and there wouldn't be just one sweet spot?
  • I'm sure they could, but comparing against multiple iris scans every time you use iris unlock would make the unlock process slower, right?
  • So tired of the internet saying the pixels aren't gonna have a headphone jack.... Then every case maker is wrong ... Go look up "pixel XL 2 case" on Amazon and they all have the headphone jack cutout... Can't believe everyone is believing the hype
  • Lol and the case makers always guess 100% right?
  • "You can't have over-the-air electricity killing people." Good insight, Jerry. :)
  • It's David Lynch's deepest fear.
  • Enjoyed this weeks broadcast! Great job!
