About this listen

Host Ryan Cole explores how billions of IoT devices—from smart thermostats to vineyard sensors—communicate despite wildly different power, memory, and bandwidth constraints. He examines MQTT, Zigbee, Bluetooth Low Energy, and LoRaWAN, revealing how each protocol allocates scarce resources differently. When these incompatible systems fail, the consequences extend beyond convenience to safety-critical infrastructure monitoring our increasingly connected civilization.
