Hey there, and welcome to Tech Brewed, the podcast where we explore how technology is reshaping our homes, workplaces, and even that tiny pocket of space where your phone battery is supposed to last all day, but doesn't. I'm Greg Doyle, your guide on this bite sized journey through the digital frontier. See what I did there? Bite sized. Yep. There's more where that came from. Whether you're a seasoned tech pro or you're still wondering why your smart fridge is recommending kale recipes, this podcast is for you. In this series, we're brewing up conversations on 4 big themes for the first part of 2025. First up will be technology at home because smart toasters are a thing now. Next, technology at work. Spoiler alert. We're talking about more than just Zoom fatigue. And after that, AI for your home. Think of it as your digital butler but less snooty. And followed by that, AI at work, where robots don't just steal jobs, they take credit for the coffee machine being fixed. We'll also answer life's big questions like, does your smart speaker secretly judge your music choices? Or are your coworkers actually human or just really advanced chatbots? And why does every tech device come with a feature you'll never use, but you can't turn it off? And you might be wondering why tech brood? Well, tech isn't just for geeks and hoodies anymore, it's everywhere. It's in how we turn on the lights, binge watch our favorite shows, and argue with our GPS about the fastest route. I started this podcast because technology can be exciting, confusing, and let's face it, occasionally infuriating. But it's also a tool for connection, creativity, and a bit of chaos. And that's what we'll explore without the jargon that makes you feel like you need a degree in computer science just to keep up. If this sounds like your cup of coffee, or in this case, your cup of tech brew, hit subscribe. Let's chat about the tech that's changing how we live, work, and scroll endlessly on social media. Next week, we're kicking off with the smart home revolution. What gadgets actually make life easier, and which ones just end up as expensive paperweights? You don't wanna miss it. And thanks for tuning in for 2025. And remember, in a world full of algorithms, it's always okay to unplug and take a coffee break. I'm Greg Doig, and I'll see you next time unless my Wi Fi goes down, in which case, send help. Seriously.
