Two Blokes Talking Tech

An insiders look at Wall Street focussing on the aspirations of a young Bud Fox played by Charlie Sheen. His desire to land the "Elephant" could make or break him. Michael Douglas stars in a cracking cast including Daryl Hannah and Martin Sheen, and it's all directed and co-written by Oliver Stone. We fire up the Fetch box on our Hisense TV and re-watch or for some watch for the first time this cracker 1987 Drama.

Probably not.

Stephen's not happy with Elon - we'll get to that in part. But Apple is back with lots of news. From Satellite SOS calls to Voice emulators and Small Business payment systems it's all happening. Telstra's prices go up, should they be reaching out to customers who are paying too much? ROG's portable Windows gaming PC and yes, the Tesla woes.

Tesla has cancelled the new Model S EV for Australian customers – and we’re not happy, Emergency SOS via satellite is now active in Australia and New Zealand, Segway-Ninebot has launched its new line up of electric scooters, we take a look at the Google Pixel 7a smartphone, Navman launches a new dash cam that blends into your car, Belkin's new BoostCharge Magnetic Power Bank can keep you powered on the move and we’ll answer all your questions in the Tech Guide Help Desk.

We're confident this is a new one for most people. Stephen has watched Identity before, and loves it, so takes this chance to introduce Trevor to it for the very first time. So if it's your first watch, or not - flick it on Fetch on your Hisense TV and enjoy a walk through unpacking the movie. Starring John Cusack, Ray Liotta and many more including Rebecca De Mornay, it's not what it first appears, and has a very different story arc approach. Enjoy it with us.

And Trev's sneaky Airport trick

Google held their annual IO event, talking about whats new, whats exiting and launching new products. A full wrap of what's new, a test of their AI and a look at their affordable smartphone, but also a confirmation of a Pixel Fold but disappointment for Aussies. Ford and MG have EV news, with Pricing on the Mach-E and MG4. Trev's not to keen on how Ford have positioned themselves, but the MG has an impressive entry price. Both Blokes very impressed with Samsung's mid-range Galaxy A54 after solid testing it begs the question - why spend more? And Apple brings Pro apps to iPads.

Trev's back from a couple of weeks away, firstly observing Anzac Day, and then travelling last week to Seattle with Amazon. Your calls this week on buying advice and Fetch Feedback. Plus a chat with some senior Amazon Executives, Dave Limp and Daniel Rausch about the world of Amazon, Devices and Entertainment - fascinating stuff!

AI-powered Bing search and Edge Browser is now open to all, smartphone shipments continue to slump around the world – who are the winners and losers, Nokia releases one of the world’s toughest smartphones, we take a look at the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G, Anker launches a portable power station, Jura has a sweet new coffee machine that can add new flavours to your brew and we’ll answer all your questions in the Tech Guide Help Desk.

An Iconic film we've all heard of, but have you watched it - have your kids watched it? This is a movie that needs to be passed down through the generations. Matthew Broderick, Mia Sara and Alan Ruck star as teens who take a day off school and don't just sit around, they have the day of all days. With some fourth wall breaking techniques there's a lot to unpack from this 1986 classic. Trevor and Stephen fire up the Fetch on their Hisense TVs and re-live Ferris Bueller's Day off!

Not morbid, some streaming chat too:)

With Trev in Seattle with Amazon, the boys get together remotely for another chat about tech this week. Google's "godfather of AI" quits and has regrets, what does it mean for the AI world and should we be worried? Apple and Google form a partnership to make unwanted tracking a thing of the past. Trev details a PayID scam circling on Facebook marketplace, while Stephen unfolds a bunch of Google and Samsung speculation.

TikTok launches an investigation – into itself, we take a look at the report card on the Australian 5G networks and how a smart speaker can get you back on track and motivated to achieve your goals, we take a look at the Arlo Pro 5 2K security camera, DJI has released a drone with a triple camera, Ecovacs makes a price breakthrough with its latest robot vacuum and we’ll answer all your questions in the Tech Guide Help Desk.

Stephen Fenech takes Trevor Long to a movie genre he's not so keen on - an escape from reality. In this 2013 "post-apocalyptic" movie, Tom Cruise is the star who plays a complex role shall we say:) Trev's never seen it, but along with Stephen we unpack the key moments, turning points, twists and shocks, as well as the info you never knew about the movie. Alongside Tom Cruise is Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Roseborough and more great cast members - in a scene set in 2077! Fire up the Fetch, rent or buy OBLIVION and watch on your Hisense TV!

interesting though:)

Blue Ticks are gone! unless you're paying or are a megastar who Elon doesn't want to hate him. The boys unpack it all and reflect on a decade of Blue Ticks in Australia. DJI come out strong with a new Pro level drone with features we think of in smartphones! Google just HAS to be launching a Pixel Fold - just has to be, thanks to new leaks and rumours. And Amazon's Prime TV feature that will make hearing it all easier.

This 1972 classic is a disaster film and you know it from the get-go. The cast alone is staggering. Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, Jack Albertson, Shelly Winters and Red Buttons - all Oscar winners. We find out what's going to happen at the start but the ups and downs of the story and the character building is what makes this movie. It was a special one for Stephen - Trev's never seen it. We watch it thanks to Hisense and Fetch.

One of Stephen's best stories

LG Celebrates 10 years of OLED with a huge range and the best products. Aussies are in the can for $3 billion in one year - Stephen and Trevor unpack it and frankly, solve the issue. Starlink going hard on Rural Australia, Homepod has some new features and Belkin's enviro products hit Australia. Oh, and our Arlo advertising concept is a winner.
