Mr. C's Tech Update 25/26 - 03 MCTU - Waze vs Google Maps w/ Taylor & Nova from Notebook LM

In this episode, I used the Notebook LM audio file generated from an article comparing two popular navigation apps—Waze and Google Maps. The discussion is brought to life by two AI-generated voices, Taylor and Nova (names I chose as a nod to the original Planet of the Apes movie). Together, they break down the article and share a conversational, real-world take on which app comes out on top.
