TDH - So here I am playing Halo...

I apologize for the random title, but it is paying homage to my HS Principal, who said the line, and we told him that it was going to be the title. Today I felt like our show broke down a little, but winter break should fix that for us. The next show will be on January 16th.

TDH - Vegas Makes People Happy

Erik and I are going into business to create Droid Incredible to iPhone conversion kits, all digital "tape" and were are going to trademark the phrase "Vegas makes people happy." All this after a rant about the TSA and how nobody cares if Bill Nye passes out on stage.

TDH - I don't have a title

Like I said at the top of the broadcast, the week was a slow one for tech news, but you take what you get, there are ups and downs. I want to see the gold light emitting trees that we talked about on the show, and you can get a invisibility cloak soon, like when it funnels through the military, just like tooth cleaning gum.

TDH - Beware the Digital Hazard

Again, Erik is off on holiday, and Chris joined me today. Chris should be joining me next week as well. Today we talked about the election, after everybody and their uncle has given you their take. I get a little confused on how LG can produce a dual core tablet, and why Apple should (or shouldn't) actually pay out on a class action lawsuit, cause Google isn't.

TDH - We are going to Everest

MWAHAHAHA! It was Halloween today on The Digital Hazard. I mean it was Halloween everywhere, but it permeated the show too. The only evil things we talked about were Firesheep and Facebook's ad model. James Cameron is still monetarily focused, and we are going to podcast from Everest. If you'd like to support us, please send a paypal payment to digitalhazardpodcast[at]gmail.com.

(don't actually do that).

TDH First episode on Air!

This was the first episode to air on WRCT, and I had to do it on my own. Thankfully my producer Chris stepped to help me after the music break. The show was predominately about mobile phones, but we talked about the web, and other intersting developments of the week.
