Host(s): Abram Nanney, Shane Chism, and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz)Topic: A couple weeks ago we actually got our first talk to us message asking us to talk about the types of technology used in the Super Bowl. From drone shows to augmented reality, there were a lot of things maybe a few people had never seen before, but they’ve been around for a while. So today on Everyday Tech, we’re gonna expand that prompt a little to also include other ways we have seen this technology used.
