Let’s take a peek at what went down this week on the radio.
- So much great music!
- There’s a company that made a phone for your pet! It’s around $90, a little box that attaches to the collar of your dog or cat. You can track them on it, play music for them, or call them, and the best part, there’s a mic on it so they can talk (or bark) back to you.
- A global survey said you should stop saying “Happy New Year” to people by January 10th.
- According to HR directors the number one reason people lose their job in January is because of something they did or said at the office/company Holiday party! (that’s the only reason to go, to hear and see the stuff your coworkers do)
- A start-up in Canada created a prototype of airbags for pants that can detect when you fall and inflate in a split-second. They claim the pants can sense the difference between a fall and just sitting down on the couch. They’re about $1500.
- Samsung has unveiled a 130-inch TV called ‘The Wall.’ It’s more than 5 feet tall and 9 and a half feet wide. (can you imagine playing GTA on that?!?!)
It was a great week, thanks for letting me part of yours! Have a fantastic weekend and let’s do it again next week. As always, THANKS for listening!
