VR Headsets, Why Tech Won’t Just Let Them Go.

Tom is back from phase one of his paternity leave!  Chunga couldn’t be happier, to have Tom back. He’s also bouncing off the walls because the Vegas Golden Knights are one win away from the Stanley Cup! Although he hasn’t been the biggest fan of VR headsets, Chunga thinks it’d be cool to watch the game in VR without actually having to go to the arena.

While Tom was out, Apple unveiled their new “Vision Pro” VR headset that, raised a lot of eyebrows. In past episodes of The Hacks, both Tom and Chunga have repeatedly said that VR is in a word–ridiculous. They’ve long believed its a passing fad and is doomed to fail, HTC tried to do it, Meta is still trying to do it, and both companies have lost hundreds of millions of dollars! So why is Apple attempting VR now, at a time when consumers have shown that they just don’t want it–or do they?

In this episode of The Hacks, Tom and Chunga take a look at Apple’s new, $3700 VR headset  and tell you why they think it may be a huge game changer that changes everyones preception about VR technology.  Listen Now!
