Please stop talking politics!!! Stick to tech news!
Thank you
Thanks for the feedback, Joe. We do take seriously the feelings and opinions of our audience. It’s unfortunate that politics plays a roll in our lives to the extent that it does. I feel uneasy if I upset the listeners. This particular week and many here lately have been hard to think about anything else. I do apologize though
