  <description>&lt;p&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, and Sidekick Media Services and listeners like you at www.patreon.com/awesomecast&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Katie got the new iPhone 15 Pro Max and is comparing image quality to her previous iPhone 13 Pro. The 15 seems to have better quality and more realistic looking photos.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They discuss upcoming movies based on video games including a live action Legend of Zelda movie produced by Avi Arad and a live action Five Nights at Freddy's movie. Mike recommends checking out the Five Nights at Freddy's video games on mobile for only $2.99.&lt;a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/11/07/zelda-movie/https://apps.apple.com/us/app/five-nights-at-freddys/id912536422" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://techcrunch.com/2023/11/07/zelda-movie/https://apps.apple.com/us/app/five-nights-at-freddys/id912536422&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mike is interested in the new Meta Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses and sees them as an improved version of Google Glass. They have a better form factor and improved features like voice AI. And we look back at when Sorg got Google Glass in 2014! &lt;a href="https://www.ray-ban.com/usa/ray-ban-meta-smart-glasses" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.ray-ban.com/usa/ray-ban-meta-smart-glasses&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEq8DoCOcq4" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEq8DoCOcq4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Google is bringing AI generated ads to their platforms. This can help advertisers by generating unique ad images and copy.&lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23951220/google-performance-max-ai-generated-ads-campaign" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23951220/google-performance-max-ai-generated-ads-campaign&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;YouTube is testing an AI chatbot that can answer questions about videos based on automatically generated captions or user submitted transcripts.&lt;a href="https://variety.com/2023/digital/news/youtube-ai-chatbot-test-videos-1235781766/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://variety.com/2023/digital/news/youtube-ai-chatbot-test-videos-1235781766/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Amazon customer reviews now have an "AI Summary" section that summarizes key points from multiple reviews.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Waze will start providing crash history alerts for accident prone roads using AI and user reports.&lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23950441/google-waze-crash-history-alerts" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23950441/google-waze-crash-history-alerts&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instagram is rolling out an option to turn off read receipts in DMs.&lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23950995/instagram-dm-read-receipt-disable" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23950995/instagram-dm-read-receipt-disable&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;NASA is launching a free streaming channel called NASA Plus on November 8th with space documentaries and other content.&lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23951028/nasa-plus-starts-streaming-tomorrow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/7/23951028/nasa-plus-starts-streaming-tomorrow&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

  <itunes:subtitle>This episode of AwesomeCast dives into the latest tech gadgets and news with hosts Sorg, Dudders, and Podnar. They discuss new iPhone features like live voicemail transcription, voice isolation for clearer calls, and creating custom stickers from photos. Sorg reviews the Wellitory app which analyzes Apple Watch data to provide health ratings and recommendations for better sleep, exercise, and reducing stress. The hosts also explore iOS accessibility features that allow you to record your voice before potential speech loss, and then use it for text-to-speech. Plus, updates to ChatGPT like new voice and image capabilities, though concerns remain around impersonation and fraud. Podnar demos Google's Bard AI extensions which summarize your personal info and activities from Gmail, YouTube, Maps, and more. And the gang chats about the complexities of purchasing dinosaur fossils, after Dudders learns skeleton "Barry" is being auctioned for over $1 million. They get tips from ChatGPT on fundraising ideas. Finally, Dudders raves about the new cozy Aldi-branded apparel line with sweatshirts, tees and pajamas perfect for working from home.</itunes:subtitle>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by &lt;a href="http://www.sliceonbroadway.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Slice on Broadway&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="https://www.sidekickmediaservices.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Sidekick Media Services&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;





&lt;p&gt;Chatting the tech news of the week including WWE Thunderdome, new Chrome tabs, the Covid-19 testing robot and more as The Verge's Kim Lyons joins  Katie Dudas, John Chichilla and Mike Sorg!&lt;/p&gt;





&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Kim brings us the frightening visual of the &lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2020/8/24/21377011/robot-nasal-swab-machine-autonomous-covid-19-test-brain-navi" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Covid-19 Testing Robot&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Chilla likes the new &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/chrome-tab-groups-10-times-faster-160053379.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Google Chrome Tab Groups feature &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Katie and Sorg are marveling at the improvement to &lt;a href="https://www.sportsvideo.org/2020/08/22/wwe-summerslam-wwe-goes-all-out-at-amway-center-with-new-thunderdome-viewing-experience/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;WWE's shows with the WWE Thunderdome built into Amway Arena in Orlando, Florida &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Doug in the group shares the &lt;a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/duolinkgo/duolink-speakerbuds-play-music-in-more-ways?fbclid=IwAR2GNHT9KqHsTzuCUqu59s_A-HRNapznryIyKWHRUpi_QWtWdWQks1XOhGk" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Duolink SpeakerBuds, &lt;/a&gt;but we're too burned by Kickstarter gadgets&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Students taking a gap year &lt;a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/08/24/ex-google-employees-form-virtual-tech-school-for-gap-year-students.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;can learn from global Googlers and Xooglers (ex-Googlers)&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdjwCFYZZ_BQnD7_TFJ4LHjAJI6Ghz9nxNhW9RA8XUjFVWoTA/viewform" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Xoogler University&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We update on the Epic vs Apple confrontation, and see that &lt;a href="https://www.imore.com/microsoft-has-thrown-their-weight-behind-epic-big-battle-apple" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Microsoft is coming for an assist&lt;/a&gt; to help &lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2020/8/25/21400240/epic-apple-ruling-unreal-engine-fortnite-temporary-restraining-order?fbclid=IwAR3fJkcWMbKq-I81gKchFLWSiCsPClzBmrfV_ZioF_z9J3EoXh7VUTopIu8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;save Unreal Engine&lt;/a&gt;! &lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We're recording a day early due to some scheduling conflicts, but we've got Sorg, Podnar, and Producer Missy on hand to bring you this week's tech news, including:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Dave Podnar is sharing &lt;a href="https://www.imore.com/ios-13-lets-you-save-one-or-more-live-photos-video" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;iOS 13's live photos&lt;/a&gt; video option as his Awesome Thing of the Week this week.&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;Sorg is sharing YouTube audio replacement tools as his Awesome Thing of the Week.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;For starters, Wendys made a game. Secondly, the game allows you to &lt;a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/10/03/wendys-tabletop-rpg-dnd-feast-of-legends?sf110119479=1&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR0yGNbRGaU3b4pYC7nXKheTSECwAmIF9YhMzApknkK3Cs2RIXy2OsnwsJw" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;battle "Ronald McDonald." &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Tesla is allowing customers to &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/10/06/tesla-custom-horn-and-movement-sounds/?utm_source=sailthru&amp;amp;utm_medium=email&amp;amp;utm_campaign=the_morning_after&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR1Qt-wWWTaGOSrAUNxN6I6IvFleIk8qaoJOBqYcipJ_-LM8dqEBZd-TLGI" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;customize the vehicle horn and movement sounds&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We're talking about how Tesla is creating the perfect opportunity for wrestling style entrance themes with customized vehicle sounds.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Big Ben &lt;a href="https://www.wpxi.com/sports/nfl/pittsburgh-steelers/big-ben-fined-ben-roethlisberger-fined-by-nfl-for-wearing-apple-watch-on-sideline/994168208?li_source=LI&amp;amp;li_medium=storyItemList&amp;amp;li_tr=storyItemList&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR16dx6mIEvOShHK1x1p4fooqsirbFtmCKCF4JNyIqTGCX2BXspbhzbxThU" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;fined by the NFL&lt;/a&gt; for his Apple Watch?&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;Chilla is sharing &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/06/18/harry-potter-wizards-unite-launch/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Harry Potter Wizards Unite&lt;/a&gt; as his Awesome Thing of the Week.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We're comparing Pokemon GO to Wizards Unite.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg has been getting his &lt;a href="https://gamejolt.com/games/TMNT-Rescue-Palooza/39658?fbclid=IwAR05YLsGHeG55RtPzLOKcF_ljcPBmNiNLZ84VgltJbIJy9aI65J_T3p94ao" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game on with Rescue-Palooza&lt;/a&gt; as his Awesome Thing of the Week.&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;Remember when Chachi used to play games? He's keeping a chronicle of &lt;a href="https://chachisays.wordpress.com/?fbclid=IwAR1iII8du5mkExboNE6QWgiiSZCMyEtJZnfc0j8twcYU1AsbB_CVoxKQZfo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;1001 video games&lt;/a&gt; which he shared with us this week.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Port Authority is rolling out a &lt;a href="https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2019/06/20/port-authority-piloting-connectbands/amp/?fbclid=IwAR19ner2nZNMpDn_MVU06BsuV7pXbA0Abjs5MnwlJGpYCMOzo-QJD4bTseY" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;ConnectBand pilot program&lt;/a&gt; in Pittsburgh.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg has had his own recent dealings with RFID tech with his recent SAE travel.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;YouTube's &lt;a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/06/google-is-killing-youtubes-hangouts-on-air-this-year/?fbclid=IwAR34mTHkmPZX9tiDsRYCXYm6t15JNoz-K_AQzxlt1-rPoxXWJKQ2QpkNX50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Hangouts on Air&lt;/a&gt; is going away, and podcasters are up in arms.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Stop what you're doing right now. There is a &lt;a href="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/06/20/dog-petting-simulator-gameplay" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;dog petting simulator&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;A robot "duck" is helping keep rice paddies clear of weeds thanks to a Nissan tech who has developed a &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/06/23/robot-duck-for-rice-farms/?fbclid=IwAR1Nt4UkvmLF__BxYMfqa0b3KxStoz3t9o44yz6oJ9Ygiz8dFLv_H5vqlek" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Roomba for rice&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;

  <description>&lt;div class="entry-content"&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by &lt;a href="http://www.comicbookpitt.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Comic Book Pitt&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://www.sliceonbroadway.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Slice on Broadway&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.alexanderkahrs.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Alex Kahrs Design &amp;amp; Media!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

The band is back together as Katie Dudas takes a break from zombie wrangling with Chilla and Sorg to talk Tech...things...
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Chilla looks forward to Mac and iPad possibilities for the &lt;a href="https://9to5mac.com/2018/10/18/apple-october-event-ipad-pro-mac/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;October Apple Event&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Dudders is gearing up for the first Zombie Wrestling Show with &lt;a href="http://rysewrestling.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Ryse Wrestling &lt;/a&gt;at &lt;a href="http://frightupnight.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Fright Up Night&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg is finally taking a practice of using Apple Pay on his Apple Watch&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Rizz sends us an article about &lt;a href="https://techcrunch.com/2018/10/04/uber-will-offer-free-rides-to-the-polls-on-election-day/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Uber offering free rides on Election Day&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Youtube went down for a night.  &lt;a href="https://mashable.com/article/pornhub-traffic-surge-during-youtube-outage/?utm_cid=mash-com-fb-main-link&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR1F-HR6DUj-IoHqEnKRArQvKR-hE0kiYygoFrLh5FnqZjaUuwGyUBncrWg#9XFICS0xfgqp" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;And the world flocked to Pornhub&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg discovers &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUMygkRhB88" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;ASMR&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/theres-a-book-about-video-game-butts-and-were-not-kidding-in-the-slightest" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;A book about video game butts&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We want to do 3D Photos on Facebook!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Chilla wants to play Pokemon Go and &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018/10/22/ghostbusters-world-combines-pokemon-go-and-turn-based-battle/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Ghostbusters World&lt;/a&gt;.  Thankfully he's already double fisting phones.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Krause is in studio with Sorg as Chilla joins in remotely from Studio C this week.  In a post-CES world, we’ve got a ton of stuff we’re talking about this week, including:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Krause got a new TV he’s sharing as his Awesome Thing of the  Week. It’s a Samsung 4K.&lt;br&gt;
Chilla and Krause are sharing some standard operation chatter about protocol for new tech installation – as in how to use the new remote(s) properly!&lt;br&gt;
Want to cut the cord? There are plenty of over the air options out there!&lt;br&gt;
We’ll be getting 4K over the air?!?!&lt;br&gt;
Chilla is SO EXCITED for the release of Home Pod.&lt;br&gt;
It’s the gift that keeps on giving with delayed release options and upgrades!&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is into some DIY for his Awesome Thing of the Week – as in cardboard add-ons for Nintendo Switch.&lt;br&gt;
Pittsburgh company WeSpeke is partnering with CNN to provide language lessons while checking out the news.&lt;br&gt;
Thanks to Laura for sharing the Quantum Leap map this week!&lt;br&gt;
YouTube TV has 300K subscribers in less than a year.&lt;br&gt;
Streaming TV options are great for bringing your TV with you no matter where you go.&lt;br&gt;
We’ve got some great cord cutting options if you’re looking for some comparisons.&lt;br&gt;
Screen share your iOS device for remote help using a new TeamViewer option.&lt;br&gt;
We talk about drones rather frequently, but here’s a first – A lifeguard drone made its first rescue!&lt;br&gt;
From a lifeguard version to a pocket version, there’s pretty much a drone for everyone these days.&lt;br&gt;
We’re ending this week’s podcast with some app recommendations! (Files Go, Drafts)&lt;br&gt;
After the show remember to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Eat at Slice on Broadway (@Pgh_Slice) if you are in the Pittsburgh area! It is Awesome! (sliceonbroadway.com)&lt;/p&gt;

    <![CDATA[<p>Krause is in studio with Sorg as Chilla joins in remotely from Studio C this week.  In a post-CES world, we’ve got a ton of stuff we’re talking about this week, including:</p>

<p>Krause got a new TV he’s sharing as his Awesome Thing of the  Week. It’s a Samsung 4K.<br>
Chilla and Krause are sharing some standard operation chatter about protocol for new tech installation – as in how to use the new remote(s) properly!<br>
Want to cut the cord? There are plenty of over the air options out there!<br>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;It’s just the boys this week!  But, Sorg and Chilla hold down the fort as they share this week’s news in tech.  This week they’re talking about:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It’s our last episode before our Christmas edition next week, and we’re feeling pretty festive already.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is sharing his Awesome Thing of the Week. Desert Bus is (finally) on VR!&lt;br&gt;
Chilla has some Android news as his Awesome Thing of the Week with a file-to-file transfer option.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is discussing just how much data our tech savvy household uses. It’s almost staggering.&lt;br&gt;
There’s a YouTube video from 1999 that talks about Amazon. It’s amazing.&lt;br&gt;
Whiteboard app is coming to Microsoft.&lt;br&gt;
According to Sorg, Nintendo is like the Disney vault of video games.&lt;br&gt;
With games like Animal Crossing, where’s the Legend of Zelda integration for our phones?&lt;br&gt;
Amazon is not happy with Google. Or is that the other way around?&lt;br&gt;
YouTube will no longer be available on Amazon devices?!?!&lt;br&gt;
How about a stripped down blogging tool without social media tools? There’s such a thing to get you back to the basics of blogging, without the bells and whistles.&lt;br&gt;
HP has a wearable computer for VR!&lt;br&gt;
Google updated Google Home to now accept multiple commands. Chilla has been waiting for this day for so long.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is showing off his teddy bears.&lt;br&gt;
After the show remember to:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Eat at Slice on Broadway (@Pgh_Slice) if you are in the Pittsburgh area! It is Awesome! (sliceonbroadway.com)&lt;/p&gt;
