54: Back to School Again - But Not for Grandpa

Summary

It’s time to go back, back, back to school again (old movie reference). Jason and Greg realize this is the second time they have done back to school and that they missed the one year anniversary of the show. Yep, that’s what happens when you get old.

So this week we catch up on some of the trailer tech, talk about current items and then dive into our favorite back to school tips from last year and add a few more for this year. 

That and then a bit of a philosophical deep dive on the good and bad of tech. You’ll know it when you come to it.

So join us this week for another great tech grandpa style discussion.
