After a Bulls update, Diana is back and we talk about technology from CD's, DVD's, streaming, and the use of A.I. and other tech. If Diana's sound is quieter than normal, I may or may not have been in a rush and forgot to connect the mixer to the laptop and both of our sounds came through my headphones! I appreciate each and every one of you (except the spam accounts) who comment on or like my posts and also participate in the questions and polls which make the episodes. Also, Weird Al Yankovic'...

**This is the first time I've used lavalier mics. I met Erik De'von at Camp Coffee Company in Oceanside where it was very quiet at the start and got very loud at the end. I used Riverside's AI Magic Editor to clear up all the background noise. It did better than what I could have done! I wish our volume was a little better with the mics, but that's something I'll look into. Enjoy!** There isn't a Bulls update, but Erik De'von and I talk about some shows he's been to and some we've been to togeth...
