When Everything is Connected!

Meaning. IoT is the latest buzzword, and has taken on the hopes and dreams of the tech industry. What is IoT? Is it just smart light bulbs, or something more? What will it mean to our everyday lives? Eric and Loyd try to define and dive deep into IoT.

Tools. Can you build the tools for your own IoT-based smart home? Yes... and no. It's complicated.

Fun. Loyd wraps up his playthrough of Dragon Age: inquisition, and ponders Pillars of Eternity. He also talks up Fantasy Flight's Star Wars: Imperial Assault. Then he teases Eric's Portal obsession with some interesting hardware...

About this Podcast

Improbable Insights is a technology, gaming and general geekery podcast. We try to be short and pithy, splitting the podcast into three segments.

Meaning

We dig deep into a single technology, gaming, or geek-related topic, trying to parse the meaning and implications that underlies the hype and general noise surrounding these topics. The meaning segment always focuses on a single topic.

Tools

As Eric puts it, this is about what’s in our bag. What do we actually use, why we use it, and the reasons we chose it. These are not reviews as much as experiential discussions revolving around day-to-day use. Would we get it again? Why or why not? We don’t just talk about the stuff we like, but also what we came to dislike over time.

Fun

Here’s where we talk about what’s entertaining us, ranging from tabletop games, video and computer games, media, movies, books, and anything else that can amuse, entertain, or occasionally enrage us.
