In this episode, I discuss the likelihood of Kodi and Sideloading being banned on the Fire TV. I go over installing Google Play Music on Fire TV and talk about the new streaming music service from Amazon, as well as new ALexa features coming to Echo. The episode concludes with a Q&A session where I answer questions from the audience.
