In this episode, I talk about the Fire TV Stick 2 being announced for the UK and Germany, as well as Alexa coming to those devices. I then go over a bunch of new and updated app news like MrMC v3, a WiFi analyzer app, and more. The episode concludes with a Q&A session where I answer questions from the audience.
