Welcome everyone to the 56th episode of what is now known as the Blind Tech Guys. We rebranded the podcast in order to make it easier to find and to allow us to branch out from simply discussing Android, but the same old crew are still here, with the aim of helping you get your fill of mobile tech news and lots more. Thank you as always for joining us and we look forward to continue serving you moving forward under our new name.


You will also find that it will be a lot easier to play the podcast with your smart speakers, so why not give it a go and ask your device to play the latest episode of the blind Tech Guys podcast.
