Michael Calore: Yeah. There’s an entirely different topic.
Kylie Robison: It is. Will, do you have any recommendations?
Will Knight This is what I recommend as a useful and practical home robot. Leono, my cat is very nice. He brings in animals that are dead or live, and he does it overnight. Many times, large rabbits will run about.
Kylie Robison: Oh, my God!
Will Knight The cat flap is equipped with a computer and camera that can detect if there’s a mouse or other object in your cat’s mouth. It will say: “Contraband detected,” And then stop them coming in. I find that a positive thing.
Michael Calore: You get to see a picture when you are notified that your cat is carrying contraband.
Will Knight Yes. You can watch it in action. You can find some great ones on the website. One has a large frog inside its mouth.
Kylie Robison: These must be accompanied by a poster of a person wanted.
Will Knight Yes.
Kylie Robison: “Wanted: cat with frog in mouth.”
Will Knight Yes. OnlyCat is the name of it. It’s called OnlyCat. It’s a mystery to me how she brought these rabbits inside.
Kylie Robison: Me, too.
Will Knight There are huge ones. It feels like she’ll have to dig through the pile, grab it and pull it. This must be.
Kylie Robison: Wow. Wow.
Michael Calore: She works hard.
Kylie Robison: Rent is due.
Will Knight Yeah. Yeah. Mike, it’s your turn.
Michael Calore: OK. You can try merino T-shirts.
Kylie Robison: Why? In fact, I’d imagine that merino is quite sweaty. It’s not clear to me why I would think this.
Michael Calore: No. The opposite is true.
Kylie Robison: You see.
Michael Calore: San Francisco is in the middle of September, also called summer.
Kylie Robison: Yeah.
Michael Calore: There’s a heat wave, and I’ve thought a lot of thermal regulation. Also, I do a lot more activities like canoeing or hiking in the wild and get sweaty. I love the merino T-shirt. They are made by a variety of people. Scott Gilbertson who is part of the WIRED review team has tried a few and written a report about them. His buying guide is updated every season and includes all of the top picks. Proof’s 72-hour T-shirt made of merino is his favourite. Smartwool is my favorite. The Merino Wool is excellent at drawing moisture from the body, so you stay cooler. You don’t feel as sweaty. You’ll feel fresher even if your sweat is not very intense. It also has antimicrobial natural properties.
