  • Without Remorse on Amazon Prime did John Clark Dirty

    by

    I don’t normally write about the movies I watch but Without Remorse is on of the books I go back to read every couple years. No it’s not some big deep read, but I enjoy it. Well the movie was terrible. The acting was fine, it’s how bad they did the story. The whole thing…

    Jaybird Run XT Review

    by

    A while ago I reviewed the Vankyo X200 wireles earbuds and in that video I lamented the state of Jaybird headphones. Outside of the first pair I owned, which laster years, I’ve been getting months out of these headphones. I’ve returned for exchange more pairs than I’ve ever owned, and they’ve made the return process…

    Tarah Pro Headphones by Jaybird – Reviewed

    by

    I’ve had a love/hate relationship with Jaybird products. The first pair of headphones they ever released worked for years in all conditions. They easily handled 6 hours in the pouring rain or bushwhacking in the mountains. My wife still uses a pair of their first generation headphones many times a week running and they work…

    Procase iPad Pro 2018 2020 keyboard case

    by

    We’ll start with a disclaimer, ProCase got me a 99% coupon for this case. I paid something for it, but barely anything. They hoped I write something about it or add it to a video, but didn’t make that a requirement, and they haven’t seen this until you’re seeing it. The other truth is that…
