101: Google Shamu 2 – is it waterproof?

Jonathan Feist, Joe Hindy, David Imel and Adam Molina take to the airwaves for Android Authority Podcast #101. With Josh on holidays, the team talks Google's latest phones, with codenames Walleye, Muskie and Taimen leaking out. Adam stole John Velasco's phone, and got away with it. Hangouts is splitting into Meet and Chat, at least professionally and the LG G6 is announced, but not yet for sale, you voted on whether you were planning to buy the phone, or wait to see the Samsung Galaxy S8. Bet you can guess what you voted for.
