A used three-row SUV that genuinely excites behind the wheel and handles family duties well might sound like a contradiction, but one standout model proves that you don’t have to choose between fun and function. With its athletic suspension, responsive steering, and ample power, this SUV stands out among typical family haulers. Every drive feels more engaging than comfortable.

We've been clocking late October as one of the best times of year to find a TV on sale for a while now — the lead up to Black Friday is no joke. Best Buy's Deal of the Day on Oct. 28 is one of the best examples so far this year: A 50-inch 4K TV from Pioneer is on sale for $129.99, slashing nearly 50% off its $249.99 MSRP.

For reference, $129.99 was the sale price of the smaller 43-inch version of this same exact TV during Best Buy's Black Friday sale last year. And the cheapest 50-inch TV we saw during October Prime Day at Amazon was $189.99. If you've been waiting in the wings for a good budget-friendly TV deal this year, this is the one to make a move on.

No one's expecting a cheap 4K TV to match the brightness of QLED or the shadow depth of OLED. But nearly 2,000 customers who already bought this TV at Best Buy are impressed by its picture quality for the price.

With your purchase, you'll also unlock a free month of FuboTV if you're a new subscriber (clutch for watching live sports) and two free months of Apple TV+ for new and some returning subscribers (catch up on Severance or end horror season with a bang).

Livestreams can be unpredictable, which is part of the fun, right? Not so much for risk-averse brands considering sponsoring a livestream on Twitch, Kick, or YouTube. A new AI product launching today promises to relieve that advertiser anxiety by yanking ads when livestreams go off the rails.

LiveGuard, from streamer-centric NexTide Media, analyzes advertiser-flagged words, weighing context, language, topics, tone, and emotion. Using those clues, the AI decides whether the content is ok or objectionable and, if the latter, yanks the brand mentions from the stream.

"Brands can fully contextualize their guardrails, choosing to avoid or allow categories such as NSFW discussions, political content, profanity, or other sensitive topics, creating total control over where and how their campaigns appear,” according to a statement from NexTide.

LiveGuard is pitched as novel since it operates live and in-stream, and can make decisions fast.  

Minecraft streamer JeromeASF touted the patent-pending AI tool in a statement: "LiveGuard gives creators and advertisers the confidence to collaborate safely, protecting the live experience without limiting creativity.”

Focused on live media advertising, LiveGuard creator Nextide says its services have been utilized by State Farm, the NFL, and the BET Awards.

Livestreams have a long track record of going awry — there’s a whole Reddit page devoted to live fails. Even Elon Musk was burned by a livestream in August, when he "rage quit" after being continuously cyberbullied.

The last thing any of us wants is to spend more money on streaming. Nearly every streamer has raised its prices over the past few months — Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max, Peacock — which is why we recommend jumping on any streaming deal that pops up. While it may not be the most popular option around, AMC+ is running a deal that will cost you zero dollars. It doesn't get much better than that.

New and returning AMC+ subscribers can score a 30-day trial of AMC+ Premium (no ads) for free using the code AMC30FT4 at checkout. That saves you $9.99 and unlocks a massive streaming library for an entire month. If you recently cancelled your other subscriptions after the price hikes, this is a good way to satisfy your craving for new content without spending a cent.

You may know AMC as the home of The Walking Dead universe, but it has a lot more to offer than just your favorite post-apocalyptic zombies. It's also the home to shows like Mad Men, Portlandia, and Killing Eve, and movies like Late Night with the Devil (one of our favorite films of 2024), Clown in a Cornfield, and Good Boy (coming soon). The library also unlocks access to the entire Shudder, Sundance Now, BBC America, and IFC Films libraries, making it an excellent choice for horror freaks, British TV fans, and indie movie lovers alike.

As of now, AMC+ is pretty chill about password sharing, unlike most other streamers, meaning you can share your free month of streaming with your pals. It's really a no-brainer if you're seeking new content. Just remember to cancel your subscription before the month is up if you want to avoid charges.

Leave it to Wayfair's biggest sale of the year to get me in the holiday spirit when I'm strictly trying to milk the last few days of spooky season. But Christmas trees and whimsical outdoor decor are hardly the only home deals participating in Way Day.

Yes, Way Day is back — it kicked off on Oct. 26 and runs through Oct. 29. Kind of like Wayfair's version of Prime Day, the mega home retailer typically one of these sales in the spring and one in the fall. The first one of 2025 was in April, but the fall version's timing just hits differently. You could buy a better mattress to smooth your transition away from daylight saving time on Sunday, Nov. 2, refresh your kitchen or dining room ahead of hosting guests, try a machine washable rug before paying Ruggable prices, or actually snag holiday decor on sale before the holidays — not at the after-Christmas sales.

Most homeowners have a power tool or two, and there's a good chance it's made by Milwaukee, Ryobi, Kobalt, or some other company. While many of these brands typically offer the same tools, like drills and impact wrenches, each has a few unique or specialty tools you probably don't know about.
