About this episode

The episode discusses the effects of aging on memory and the impact of screen-time on children's development, alongside a broader conversation about society's dependence on technology.

We kick off this episode with some banter about two abbreviations that are important to each of us: the NBA and an MRI (you can guess whose is whose). Jason laments the process of pounding the pavement and then shares a bizarre mystery concerning his coffee maker, after which we discuss the effect aging has upon our memory. We dive into the issue of how the use of devices and screen-time have on children's development, from which we springboard into a larger discussion about the wholesale dependence upon technology that we as a society have.
