A Grumpy Day Out, Accessible Gym Apps & Backpacks (Again)

  • Authored on August 15, 2023

Today on the show, Steven talks to Shaun about his busy weekend enjoying the latest Barbie movie and the walk around his local shopping mall. As you will have come to expect from Steven, it was hardly an uneventful trip so relax and enjoy his latest series of travel nightmares and disasters.

Also, once they both remind themselves that this is a tech show (honest) they hear from listener Brian, who shares his own experiences using apps to measure his running and cycling either alongside or with smart gym equipment. You can watch Brian’s YouTube video where he goes into more detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3nd754y44w

And we hear another description of the BackTPack Jenine Stanley told us about the other day; this time listener Chris Cooke joins in with her description and experience with it.
