Quote from Steve Vingua on September 23, 2021, 7:50 amIn this episode we recap the nerd news of the week to include the streaming agreement between Disney and Sony, Blizzard changing the name of an Overwatch character, and China’s laws regarding minors and gaming. In tech news we cover an update to the T-Mobile hack, Coinbase’s security issues, and a 12-year old who made over $400,000 making NFTs. We also discuss the James Webb telescope and the sex toy modeled after the Blue Origin rocket.
