CBF Morning Run: Googling Alexa, hiding cellphone towers, drooling again over a certain breakfast sandwich, wondering what that burger is doing on my sub, celebrating Geddy, Alex and Neil and shakin' it in Colorado

I find both Google Home and Amazon Echo a bit creepy. For the most part, they sit there waiting for a voice to call out their names. Sometimes, however, I see their blinky lights turn on and off on their own. What's that about? Will these things ever Dave me, like HAL 9000? Will the millions of Google Home and Amazon Echo devices around the world connect and create some sort of neural link? A Skynet, if you will?
