After a traditionally lengthy tech issue in getting everything set up, we absolutely crushed it, as always. 100% of the time. I don't think the noise of quiet facepalming while talking about the questions posed to Mark Zuckerberg came out on the recording, but apologies if it did. Speaking of noises, we both (SPOILER) liked (END OF SPOILERS) A Quiet Place, and it was almost as fun talking about as watching. Wait, no that doesn't sound great. It was good. Thanks for listening!
You can find us on other sites at @benjionelung and @bytereview - what did you think of A Quiet Place? Was it... 'quiet' good? WAS IT?
Thanks to Tony Thaxton for our theme!
