Show Notes

Getting Fancy with Stupid Pop-ups | Battle Born Tech · April 21, 2026 Your browser's been hijacked. Your new laptop won't let you leave the Microsoft Store. And one caller just wants his apps to stop wandering around his screen. This week on Battle Born Tech, we're getting fancy with stupid pop-ups. Diane's computer is buried under a avalanche of fake McAfee warnings. Joan is trapped in Windows S mode — and we go through every letter S could possibly stand for. And Esteban gets his windows organized once and for all with FancyZones from Microsoft's PowerToys. "It's a little geeky — not too much. You can handle it." Battle Born Tech airs Tuesdays at 8 PM Pacific on FM 95.1 · Stream live at KNVC.org · battleborn.tech · bbtl.ink/stats · Call the studio Saturdays 9–11 AM Pacific: 775-241-3571
