~ Recorded Live from KOWS FM 92.5 ~

While embraced in the sumptuous interior of the 2021 Infiniti QX50 all-wheel drive AUTOGRAPH edition, one could easily forget to remember that beneath the hood beats the turbocharged heart of a remarkably engineered 268 horsepower four-cylinder engine. Fortunately, this was not lost on Tech Talk host Rick DeMeis. Hear him explain the particulars in this week’s podcast episode.
Then, stay with the program as it navigates through news items that include Huawei’s foray into smart electric vehicles, a decision from SpaceX on parts recovery, an update on the Ingenuity Mars helicopter, the MEV-2 spacecraft linkup, a UPS electric aircraft order, and a blood-flow sensing smart stent coming out of the University of British Columbia.
