old-people-newsThe series is a spin off of Old People News, a Kevin Maher production and Atom.com original that debuted on the Comedy Central-owned online destination in January of 2009. The Tech Report will span eight episodes, released over the the next two weeks, all riddled with mispronounced brand names, archaic technological references, and ill-informed consumer critiques.
