Episode 1: Black Mirror, Dr. Strange, iOS/Android, creativity and funding it, going to Mars

The first episode of two guys talking about things they're interested in.
We'll probably do, like, six and then stop.
In the meantime, check out what we think about things.
For two guys with a background working around audio, you'd think we'd have dodged the occasional clipping in the recording, but there you go.
