Jeremy Garcia, Bryan Lunduke, Jono Bacon, and Stuart Langridge present Bad Voltage, in which we discover that whitehouse.com is not the government. We also discuss:

Outernet, Google Loon, Facebook et al’s internet.org: all attempts, from small to globally-changing, to help bring internet connectivity to places and people that don’t have it, through satellites or balloons or drones or lasers. What’s the deal? And will it work? (2.15)

We speak to Carl Richell, CEO of Ubuntu laptop, desktop, and server vendors System76, about their new rebrand, the nature of design in hardware, and how they work (17.05)

Wrong in 60 Seconds: Jono is extremely annoyed (for a minute) about people (34.32)

A while back we were pretty sceptical about the Arubixs Portal, a bendable very powerful upcoming phone being crowdfunded: we are still sceptical, and so Brandon Mears, CEO of Arubixs, takes some time to explain to us how it’s not a hoax and the Portal is on its way (36.05)

Jeremy reviews the latest model of Amazon’s ebook reader, the Kindle Voyage (54.26)
