    Episode 924

    Dick the Yoga Master
    Dick always stays ahead of the curve, and has been doing yoga for 30 years, long before Leo starts doing his Pilates, yoga and TWiT Sit.  Dick still does a sun salutation every day.

    Circadian Rhythm Disorder
    Leo needs 8 hours of sleep every day, while Dick gets tired every night at 11, and then gets wide awake by midnight.  Dr Leo Laporte diagnoses Dick's condition as a circadian rhythm mismatch.

    A Tip from England
    Stephen Doo from England gives us all a tip.  Certain models of the iPod Touch (2nd Gen onwards) works with earbuds with a built-in microphone, like the EarPollution Timbre (Episode 912).  Download the Skype iPhone app, and you can start making free calls on the internet when you're in a WiFi zone.

    Bad Timbre?
    After Leo talked about the Timbre, it became rather popular and its price started going up.  One listener who got it wasn't completely happy with the sound quality, and Leo reminds us again that at about $20, one cannot expect it to perform at the same level as the Bose QuietComfort, or a $300 pair of Etymotics.
