About this episode

The hosts reflect on their Easter break, discuss screen addiction, AI-generated news, and complete a crossword.

The guys reflect on a brief Easter hiatus, which brought their reliance on smarthphone-based entertainment into focus. They also discuss the latest story in the world of AI-generated madness, namely the president's reimagining of himself as the Messiah. There is also the comparatively sensible matter of a crossword to complete. Play along: https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/quick/17453 Contact us: twoacrosspod@gmail.com
