Today is Monday, August 14, 2013 and this is Episode 121.

We have a special techy guest, Tom Merritt! Tom has done a variety of shows and I feel he hardly needs introduction. But I’m going to do it anyway.Tom has worked for CNET and was a co-host of the late Buzz Out Loud with Molly Wood. He is now the the regular host of Tech News Today with Sarah Lane, Iyaz Akhtar and Jason Howell.

He is also the host of many other podcasts, including one of my favorites Sword and Laser.

He lives in California with his lovely wife Eileen Rivera and their adorable dogs Jango and Sawyer.
