What does this mean? I'm aware of the podcast but only heard an ep or two.

There's an episode intro where his dad goes to Mexico and buys some sketch TV from some guys, but when he gets home its a KFC menu

So…. Remove the usb stick?

Are they actually just TVs with a USB stick? I thought I read about another restaurant TV and they were super stripped down, and designed towards displays and not to use like a TV.

What does that even mean though? All my TVs are driven by Roku or FireSticks. All I use is “the display”. What is missing as a TV that you would want these days? Are people somewhere still trying to receive channels?

This is obviously in Canada. Even if you are paying for cable, they are giving you a PVR or set-top box and the “TV” is just a monitor. I cannot think of a provider in Canada where you would need a tuner in your display.

Well I used to agree with you until I bought a sound bar and learned what HDMI ARC was and my TV would not support it.
