Special Edition: Investigating Online Shopping & How to Know Your Items are Legit
If you’re like me, you shop online a lot. But here’s the thing: there aren’t many rules that popular online marketplaces like Amazon must follow when it comes to the products they sell, so you may be taking more of a risk than you realize when you buy.
Technology writer Stacey Higginbotham, who has been covering the tech world for 20 years, found this out first-hand when she took part in a Consumer Reports investigation into video doorbells sold on several major online marketplaces. We’ll talk about what they found, how these same risks exist across the online shopping space, and what you can look for to shop online in a more secure way.

Customer Reviews
Balanced news - Finally!
I was so sick of listening to news that was biased. Erica Mandy is amazing. I start off every day listening to the podcast and I’m never disappointed. I’m a big fan!!!
Omission is a form of lying
Wow! That Israel/Iran segment on 4/15/24 is a disgrace. It’s real convenient how the “newsworthy” forgot to mention that Iran was responding to Israel bombing its embassy in Syria and killing people. This specific news story is going to act as my “tell” for any news organization that reports on this. If they report on the Iranian response but omit the backstory about Israel bombing the embassy then it’s a major red flag. The news organization can no longer be trusted because they are lying by omission.
I’m no fan of Iran but I won’t be manipulated and lied to.
Unfollowing.
Great podcast
I really enjoy your podcast. I heard about you from Dr Phil McGraw podcast when he advised about your earlier this year. I like how you keep it fun and informative in about ten minutes. I like how you say “let’s do this” for the past two months I have binge listened to all your previous podcast episodes from the first episode to present during my 8 hour work day at my assembling job. Even thou it was old news I still learned a lot past stories and interviews you do on your Special edition Saturdays.
