You know that Thing where they ask celebrities to answer popular questions from Google autocomplete? Yeah... that’s what we’re doing today.

Every day, people google their questions about technology. In this episode, Chris & Adam set the record straight and answer some of the most popular searches. They each choose 3 questions the other has to answer. No takebacks.

  • Why does technology hate me?
  • Is technology making us dumber?
  • Where did technology come from?
  • Where has technology gone wrong?
  • What if technology disappeared?
  • How did technology improve city life?

How would you answer these questions? Adam and Chris take their best shots. See if you agree with their answers.

Plus, you'll never guess what this episode's "Vice or Virtue" is.
