About this listen

This first episode is packed with big tech moves, public infrastructure chaos, and headlines you might’ve scrolled past without the full story.

We break down Google’s Gmail payout and what it means for users, unpack the Metro Tunnel’s long-awaited “Big Switch,” and look at why AI hype is causing a global RAM shortage. We also dive into the growing US bans on TikTok and DJI, a controversy around alleged false advertising at an LGBTQ+ Midsummer festival, and a newly discovered school-issued laptop exploit raising serious security concerns.

Plus, Elon Musk and Ryanair clash over StarLink internet, the bizarre case of Ethan accidently running on the side of a highway, and a rapid-fire round of the news you need to know — fast.
