In this episode I am trying to read between the (product) lines and forecast what direction RØDE is heading towards with the new products announced at the 2023 NAB Show.

I'll talk about (briefly) the new Wireless Me, the updates on the Wireless Go II and the Backpack & in length about the Rødecaster Duo, the Streamer X, the updates that are valid also for the Rødecaster Pro II and of course the Podmic USB.
