This week, the duo reminisces about their first Amazon purchases, how neighbours are spying on each other, how hard drive prices are going down (bigly surprise), and what happens when Google thinks your phone number is Facebook tech support. Then, Angelo gets to talk about a topic that is near and dear to his heart: magicians and skepticism. Learn about how Houdini debunked early spiritualists, and how his work has continued today with James Randi, among others.
