2019-02-12 17:19:04 +0000 UTC View PostWe're starting a new series called "Live With It." The idea is Sarah will take a product and live with it for three months then give a review of it. It won't always need to be a new product. The idea is try out stuff in real life to help us all understand how products hold up.
Each time we do it we'll give you folks on Patreon a chance to vote on which product. DTNS will buy the ones that get the most votes and Sarah will try them for three months.
This time we're doing ear ...
