This episode, I have several topics to discuss. I enjoyed Paul Fidalgo’s Twitter followup to my Nexus 5 review, and I’ve decided to do a fairly thorough camera comparison between it and the iPhone 5C during Dragon Con this coming weekend.

Speaking of Dragon Con, we’re really looking forward to it, and I grabbed an Android app today that will help my Fallout costume. Very cool! Next, I discussed my decision to use Paul Fidalgo’s music as the intro to this podcast (probably sometime after the DDoP). Finally, I mentioned the soon-to-be-released videogame Destiny, and how interested I am in it. Probably my first full-price videogame purchase in several years.

Note: I wrapped up quickly because I started the podcast alone in the house, and folks started coming in right before I completed. Hopefully my volume didn’t change too much; I did feel like I got a bit quieter as I tried to rush through the ending. No biggie, but that’s what was going on.

Oops! So…it doesn’t take much to miss a day, does it? Dang it. Well, let’s just move forward; hopefully I can make yesterday my only miss during this Dog Days.

Today, I give my impressions (I wouldn’t really call it a review) of the Nexus 5. tl;dl — it’s the bomb. First smartphone I’ve ever used that I think could be some people’s primary computing device. We really are entering (yet another) new era.

This is a quick one. I’m tired, my brain is fried, and I just want to squeak something in for the day. Apologies; I’ll be back on track tomorrow. Have a great Friday night, everyone!

I discuss the sad news of PG Holyfield’s passing, the general idea of friends and tribes of like-minded folks, and my feelings towards those I care for. A bit of a sappy episode.

My Nexus 5 analysis was upstaged again by events. I decided to buy and check out a Chromecast today, and the sad state of my “broadband” Internet connections (thanks Comcast!) prompted me to go on a bit of a rant about the current state of net connectivity. I got a little cranky.

On a more somber note, I express my sadness at the news of PG Holyfield’s serious medical condition. It’s heartbreaking, and I strongly encourage folks to consider donating to Patrick and his family at the GoFundMe URL in the show notes.

I started out planning to discuss the Nexus 5, then made a detour into my service provider Ting, and my history with smartphones in general. Because, you know…I figured you all needed to hear about that. LOL
