Next Episode: Sustainable Toys with Doug Collins - The Kids' Product Experience

Geoff and Guy 'plug back in' to talk about how so many of us ended up with an e-waste drawer-full of cables, how purchasing behaviours and chip shortages influence device manufacturers' design decisions, trying to decipher superfluous cable feature listings, and more.

We also struggle to get through the one cable-dedicated episode without incorrectly describing USB formats in just about every way possible... which just might tell you something about the headache it can cause consumers.
