Episode 95 January 22, 2016
Debbie Downer
with Jason Griffing, Seth Johnson
What can we say, it can't always be good news around here. Perhaps it's just the leeriness of those artic 40-degree days Seth has been battling in Florida. Or maybe it's the chest cold I've been battling. One way or another, this did not appear to be a very bright week in the smart home.
Show Notes
Topics discussed include a smart thermostat that leaves you out in the cold, a call to pull a popular smart home product from the shelves, a trough of disillusionment following CES, and a pretty glaring flaw in one particular wireless security system.
Sounds fun right? You may want to pour a drink for this one...
Talk to you next week, likely with some better news. Thanks for listening!
