A podcast about an old fella using new tech. I talk about tech news and the tech I’m using in my old fart life. I also talk about entertainment and podcasting news. I’ve decided to stay away from politics but sometimes I can’t help myself. Consider yourself fore-warned. I’m retired military and a retired FED. I guess now I’m just tired. Now, if you're finished reading this, get off my lawn!
