PODCAST

OFNT

James Schaeffer

A podcast about an old fella using new tech. I talk about tech news and the tech I’m using in my old fart life. I also talk about entertainment and podcasting news. I’ve decided to stay away from politics but sometimes I can’t help myself. Consider yourself fore-warned. I’m retired military and a retired FED. I guess now I’m just tired. Now, if you're finished reading this, get off my lawn!

Thanks for listening!This is just an episode for testing out my Solid State Logic SSL II MK 2. Because of the major storm that was predicted to hit the area I reside in (Spoiler Alert: It didn't), I rushed through episode 305, leaving out some Apple News and other stuff. This gave me the excuse to test out my new audio interface.
