Show Notes

It’s time to say goodbye to our old friend, Internet Explorer. It was originally introduced in 1995 as the built-in browser for Windows 95. Microsoft has gradually shifted away from the software since it introduced the new Edge browser in 2015 to coincide with Windows 10.


We speak to Volta XR about the technology they’ll be using at this year’s Glastonbury festival. Netflix is planning a real-life Squid Game reality TV show, but without the fatal consequences. Call of Duty comes to London’s Imperial War Museum and Nintendo has been urged to launch an investigation into a ‘drift’ problem affecting Switch Joy-Con controllers. 


Plus, scientists say Venus’s Strange clouds are not explained by alien life, rising sea levels threaten 200,000 properties in England and 4.3 million Brits admit to ‘hacking’ their neighbours’ Wi-Fi.
