New Episode #336 : Is Bigger Always Better?

In this week’s show, Shawn and Andy talk about how Shawn is working Technology into him now being a new parent. We cover some of the recent news from Wyze and address a question from one of the TechtalkRadio listeners wanting to know the story behind Wyze Cam V1. The Company just put out a new Wyze Air Purifier. Shawn says one of the keys is to ask other parents you know which technology works for them, As far as Baby Monitor, Shawn has the Infant Optics Baby Monitor.

Shawn gets the opportunity to upgrade his Graphics card to the very hard to find 30 Series Nvidia Graphics based Card. Shawn tells us about the jump from a 1050 to a 3060 Series at around $350. Andy recently purchased a Samsung Odyssey CRG9 Monitor to replace his two 27-inch monitors on his desktop. The Experience unfortunately wasn’t the greatest after returning one of them then getting another also defective. Lots of Time and fuel spent he decided to give up and stick with the 2 27′ monitors for now. Andy does like what he was able to experience in the look and desktop feel and more than likely will give it another shot.

Coming out April 20th, Postal 4 – No Regerts will be available on Steam. The Creator of the original Postal, Running with Scissors is based in Tucson. Friend of the Show and the man behind Running with Scissors Vince Desi talked with Andy about the new Release, background of the game and Selectable voices with friends Rick Hunter and Corey Cruise and Jon St. John.
