What’s Going On with the Pixel 9A?

This week, Marques and Andrew discuss the return of the Pebble smartwatch, fast-charging EV's, and the Pixel 9a! They also talk about Google Assistant officially riding off into the sunset while Gemini takes center stage. We wrap it up with another eBay guessing game that Andrew cooked up with Ellis and Adam stepping in while David is away on vacation. Of course, we close it out with trivia. Enjoy!
