After a few weeks off, the Brothers are back to share their latest tech suggestions that could benefit you and your family. Home automation, weight loss, harnessing the sun, and creating images…this episode covers some exciting apps and hardware. Although this episode runs a bit long (what’s new?), you will want to stick around to see which one of the Brothers will be a Jedi Knight riding a dragon. Spoiler alert…it’s Alan…but I think you probably guessed that.

Alan’s Picks

• Lutron Pico Remote ($19.99 for the remote only, will need Lutron Hub): Can be used as a HomeKit multifunction button (with Homebridge plug-in)
• Midjourney: AI image creation tool

Brian’s Pics

• Simple.Life App: Wellness/weight-loss app, utilizing intermittent fasting, notifications, and information
• Synology 100w Solar Panel Suitcase ($199 w/controller): portable solar panel…perfect for van/RV house battery charging

Your Hosts:

Alan Jackson (the older Brother) is a producer of online content with Jackson Creative and survey researcher with Jackson Insight.

Brian Jackson (the younger Brother) is an Associate Professor of Kinesiology at Pacific University and Product Director/Consultant at Senaptec, Inc.
