Douding Thomas Monthly Recap: May 2021, Google I/O and David Ruddock of Android Police



This month, nothing happened. Except for Google I/O, so we brought David Ruddock on to chat about that, and a few other stories that hit the wires during the month. We chat about the keynote and Google's dominance in the automotive space, and Google's desperation in the wear space. Google and Samsung are getting into bed with each other hardcore, and they're taking us for the ride, and this is getting a little personal.

We also talk about the Starlink reviews that came out in May and Samsung's Upcycling program.
