Summary

Let's get real about the Apple VR headset. Is it really coming next year? What's it going to look like? What features should it have? What lessons can Apple learn from Meta's foray into VR products? We break it all down. Also, we've got home automation on our minds in various ways, as a smart switch fails Jason, Myke seeks advice, and it's beginning to look a lot like expensive fairy-light season.

From RelayFM, this is Upgrade Episode 433. Today's show is brought to you by Squarespace

0:15.2

and Storyworth. My name is Mike Hurley and I'm joined by Jason Snowhide Jason.

Hi Mike, how have we been doing this for 433 episodes? How's that possible?

0:23.9

Just one episode at a time. Yeah, that's all you can do. I mean, unless you need to record extra.

0:29.4

Anyway, yes, in one episode at a time. Yeah, exactly. I mean, I think you always do one episode at a time.

0:34.3

Right? Even if you're doing extras, it's always one of those. That's true. You do one and then you

0:39.7

do the next. You can't take it more than if you try to record two podcasts at once. I don't

Comes from Rick and Rick wants to know. Will Rick starts by saying, Jason, I loved the T-Rowell episode

out of my throat, but I might have some leftover. What might I do with something like that?

1:30.1

What might I do? The answer is, yes, I might actually drink it as iced tea.

1:35.2

And in the summer, sure, I've got a little iced tea. I actually have an iced tea maker,

1:42.3

which is not as high-tech or nice. It's a big plastic contraption that you stick.

1:46.6

You put water in the plastic contraption and ice in the bucket in the pitcher, and you press

1:52.5

a button and it basically just boils the water and runs it through a little steeping basket.

1:58.1

I hadn't really thought of it, but it is basically a low-end tea robot for iced tea.

2:04.6
