Broken smarthomes & a ninja fox stole my bread [S21E02‪]‬ 361 Podcast

This week Ewan's back on the road and tests the new 361 mobile recording setup. The team reflect the state of their smarthomes, it's not good... at all.


The team discuss the various smarthome systems they use, the changes made since last season and how their attitude to setting up smart-home tech has changed over time. Reliability's certainly been a problem, but have new standards like Matter improved things?


Rafe also has a bird-shaped surprise or two for the team.


Listener questions this week:



What do you use for USB-C charing when traveling?
Do you have any smarthome cameras and would you recommend them?
What smarthome platform have you chosen to use and why?
Do you use any long-range smarthome devices?
