Chatting about the new HomePod Mini and the iPhone 12 in our jammies in a basement

We get tested for COVID, planning to travel for the first time, Mario Kart Live: Hone Circuit, Hypnotism, and recalling our memories incorrectly.

The Year of the iPad! Got a chance to discuss the all new 2020 iPad lineup featuring the iPad Air, the 8th gen iPad, and the iPad Pro with Bob Borchers and John Ternus from Apple. 

This episode we talk about the Amazon Fall Hardware event, the Sony a7S III is finally here, Amazon LUNA, Sherbert VS. Sherbet, ASUS and ACRONYM Laptop, The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, and Super Mario 3D All-Stars!

Discussing all the announcements from todays Apple Event 2020! No iPhone 12 announcements, but plenty of news with the NEW Apple Watch Series 6,  new iPad Air, and Apple Fitness+

We have a new podcast set AND finally launched the YouTube channel! We talk about the new Xbox Series X and Series S, Peloton announces new tread and bike, and more real world chats with Justine and Jenna.

Samsung Z Fold 2 vs. the Surface duo, iPhone 12 rumors, David Blaine ascension, and our new podcast set up!

After missing a week, we are back! What's new?! We've been playing the new Microsoft Flight Simulator and Fall Guys while getting hyped for new Call of Duty. We also officially got our new podcasting gear and have a net set! I wonder if you can hear how great the new set looks...

Justine decided to unbox her Note 20 Ultra in the middle of this podcast, so that takes up a huge chunk of the episode.. and then we talked about a lot of stuff but also a lot of nothing, like usual. 

Did Justine hit herself so hard in the head that she gave herself a concussion? MAYBE! Also the new Sony A7sIII is an incredible camera and we spent a week with it. Animal Crossing now has DREAMING? YEP! 

Huge thanks to Phil Spencer for being our first guest! We had a great time chatting about how gaming really is keeping people connected plus more reactions from the Xbox Games Showcase.. 

In this episode we LEFT THE HOUSE!! It's a.... “roadcast” on the… wait for it.. RODECASTER! We packed up podcast gear and basically every camera we own to shoot a fun secret project. Lots of news this past week with the massive Bitcoin Twitter hacking, Xbox HALO Infinite news, and we share a cookie. Enjoy!

In this episode we talk about Samsung announcing their virtual Unpacked event in August. We also discus the unveiling of the Lamborghini Sian, as well as discuss the Canon EOS R5 announcement vs. what we expect to see from Sony.  Justine also begs to stop talking about tech and to start opening up the conversation on a more personal level. 

This was a weird episode with a lot of ramblings of tech, food and Jenna pushing too many buttons on the Rodecaster (again) 

Justine discovers how great BTS is for the FIRST TIME EVER in this episode. Jenna and Jus are also getting ready for that Animal Crossing summer update while finding some leaked info about the cheaper second gen Xbox Series X = LOCKHART?! Pokemon, WWDC, iOS 14, the new Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G BTS special edition and more!

This year is the 31st WWDCC but the first ever to be held entirely digital and FREE! There were a lot of great things announced like iOS 14, iPad OS Mac OS Big Sur, Watch OS 7 and updates to TV OS!

Getting excited for WWDC coming up! Also lots of PS5 hype, more Animal Crossing talk and more of Jenna trying to keep Justine from getting sidetracked.  We thought by the next episode we'd have our upgraded podcast gear, but we don't.. so hopefully next week we'll have some improved audio and more!

This was recorded on April 20th, 2020 and posting months later because why not? lol
