Waverley TechMetro Podcast
Temporada 2026
por Jet2Lagged Group
This episode is all over the place (and yes, we mean it in the best way). We’re breaking down Australia’s federal hate speech laws, surviving a typical 50°C Tuesday, and wondering who’s actually buying DDR5 RAM and a Rolex at the same time. Plus, a chill bike ride with Josh, the latest on social media bans, and the 2026 Australian Open drama. We’re also chasing Melbourne auroras, getting our hands dirty at the WCC working bee, watching a national walkout throw the coalition into chaos, and… Trump buying Greenland? Yep, you heard that right.
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.
