Geeks and Beats Podcast, Episode 155: The Definitive Holiday Gift Guide for Geeks

November 29, 2017 Alan Cross 0 Comments Geeks, Gift Guide

With me heading off to Thailand and Vietnam on a two-week vacation and Michael needing to rest up for CES in January (it’s exhausting and he always comes down with The CES Cold), we’re going to take a podcasting break for December, returning first thing in 2018. But we couldn’t leave without presenting our annual Gift Guide for Geeks.

We’ve got geek gift ideas for fans of Star Trek and Star Wars, gear heads wanting to peek into the brains behind their dashboard, vinyl lovers looking for convenience, and some interesting reads, too. And somehow we manage to sneak in some Murray Head, Portugal. The Man, and SCTV’s Edith Prickley spinning plates at the Melonville Baths. You will find something for the nerd on your list within this program.

The commercialization of streaming audio is not a new phenomenon. Going back 100 years, it was simply known by another name, broadcasting. With the launch, rise and now transition to digital and apps, the business models of audio-preneurs have generally been the same, mostly because of the challenge of measurement, a problem audio’s cousin television […]
