TechTime with Nathan Mumm

Episode 57: On the First Hour of the show, Technology mergers, how do three key acquisitions affect Microsoft, Toyota, and Zynga. Valve's new "Steam Deck" how does this compare to the Nintendo Switch? Next, we have our technical reviews of this new PC handheld game device. We also cover Gunshot detection technology now active at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Next, Microsoft announces Windows 365 a subscription cloud PC, and Clippy returns - as an emoji to all the fanfare. Finally, we have GWEN's GOLDEN GOODIE's along with our NFT and Whiskey Tastings, all in the first hour packed with technology information.

On the Second Hour, we have our "Letters" segment reading this week's email scams and funny phishing attempts. We have the [Ask the Expert] segment with our friend and TechTimeRadio regular guest Phil Hennessy. Phil is the CEO of Morpheus Tech and a space enthusiast from his childhood attending Space Camps. The question we want to know is "Will People die on Mars?" along with a review of the current Billionaire space races and what makes them all different. Since Nathan is gone, anything is on the table, and we have Gwen changing Mike and David in our [Two Truths and a Lie] segment talking about technology news with one story not being factual. I am sure that during this hour we will make you go hummm and hopefully make you laugh and have fun in technology.
