Listen "The Smart Home Gadgets You Don't Think About with Chris Wedel"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to The Sideload episode 9, a 9to5Google podcast. This week, Will is joined by Chris Wedel, the creator behind the YouTube channel Gadgets & Gravel and a writer at sites like CNET, Android Central, and XDA. Chris has dived deep into the type of smart home gadgets you might not think about all too often — robot lawn mowers, wall-illuminating specialized bulbs, electric scooters, and much more — and the result is an exceptionally fun chat on all sorts of gadgets and the state of creation in 2025.
