What’s that thing on Mat’s wrist? It’s a Samsung Gear Live, one of two Android Wear smart watches that became available to consumers this week (The other one, LG’s G Watch, was reviewed by Christina Bonnington). On this week’s show, Mat and Mike talk about both of these watches, discussing what they do, and how much of a difference they’re poised to make in our lives. Also on the agenda is a discussion about Satya Nadella’s memo to Microsoft employees. Color us flummoxed! Finally, we talk about the latest additions to our respective families: our beautiful new televisions.
