It's an all new That Real Blind Tech Show. Allison, Brian, Ed, and Jeanine are back together with all their wackiness and latest tech news.   We start off with what else but President Trump, as Trump signed an executive order to make showers great again. Staying with politics, is it A.I. or A1? The Social Security Admin announced it will be moving all future communication with the press and the public to X.   We then discuss how much we love Innosearch.ai. And you can now call Innosearch.ai at 800-55-ShopGPT.   A company claimed to be using A.I. for all checkout on its site only to be exposed to actually be using no A.I. and actually using people.   Get ready for the accessibility of DoorDash to get even worse as they are now experimenting with robot delivery.   Apple hurriedly shipped 600 tons of iPhones to the U.S. A behind the scenes look at Apple tells us that the disaster of Siri has been a multi-year managerial massive car wreck.   Opera showcased the future of web browsing and if it is accessible, it sounds impressive. Which then leads us to discussing the new Guide thing which could be a thing or not a thing.   If you allow it, ChatGPT will now remember your conversation history.   Meta claims its new version of A.I. is less woke.   A recent survey finds that most Americans don't trust A.I. or the people behind it.   We then dive in to some new products we have bought, including the must have sofa chair, the Starlight Zero Gravity Recliner. Allison is back in the Sonos ecosystem which then led to a conversation on what speakers we all have in our pads.   And it's a very special much longer version then ever of What's Pissing off Brian Now, and a normal size version of Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow ,

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Dennis and Brent stop by Strata-gee to see how Sonos is strategorizing to scramble back to the summit of the sound souk with a new … oh, wait, change in plans! Then they ally themselves (very conditionally) with a British-ish mastering engineer who contends that high-priced DACs are a scam. Then they bring their incomparable incredulity to bear on the question of whether adding hobbled Dolby Atmos functionality to Cadillacs is the way forward for Atmos or Cadillac. Brent's audio projects:

Should the Apple Vision Pro qualify as a wearable? Chuck Joiner, Brittany Smith, David Ginsburg, Brian Flaingan-Arthurs, Jeff Gamet, Marty Jencius, Eric Bolden, Mark Fuccio, Web Bixby, and Jim Rea  debate the issue, with most agreeing it does, though it's unlike traditional wearables such as the Apple Watch. They also discuss Sonos canceling its rumored TV streaming box, viewing it as a smart move in a crowded market. Ideas are shared about how Sonos could better integrate home audio and video without competing directly with Apple or Roku, and some of the challenges of setting up a home theater.  This MacVoices episode is supported by Notion.

On this episode, Nilay and David start by discussing the good and bad of Apple's new iPads and Macs, before diving into the supposedly AI-powered, all-powerful Siri that is delayed indefinitely.

This episode is all about companies in flux. First, we chat with The Verge's Alex Heath about all things Meta — whether the company is still serious about the metaverse, why its AI plans seem to be going so well, what "OG Facebook" really means, and what headsets to expect this year. After that, The Verge's Chris Welch takes us through the last year at Sonos, from the disastrous app launch to the pretty good headphones that were totally derailed by the disastrous app launch. Can the company get it together in order to launch its next big swing, a set-top box codenamed Pinewood? Finally, we answer a question on the Vergecast Hotline all about business cards. Because, yes, it's 2025, but sometimes you still need a place to put a business card.

Nilay, David, and Richard Lawler take on a big week in confusing news stories. First, they talk through the latest from Elon Musk's DOGE, which is running rampant through government computer systems with little pushback. Then they explain the latest on the US government's tariff strategy, and the mass confusion it's causing across tech. Then they pivot away from politics and talk about streaming: the Super Bowl coming to Tubi, the deeply confusing forthcoming Fox streaming service, whatever Comcast is doing this year, and more. Finally, in the lightning round, they talk about Sonos's streaming box, Brendan Carr's latest assaults on free speech, OpenAI's "new" logo, and more.
