An awkward clinch on a jumbotron is an odd place for Matt and Rich to start their thoughts, but, in 2025, the world of tech is a strange place to be.

Is this case of inopportune infidelity a teachable moment? Is it an illustration of the pervasive power of surveillance capitalism? The swift justice of netizens? The tone-deaf detachment of tech elites? All or none of the above?

Matt and Rich take their digital paranoia a step further, covering border controls, burner phones and authoritarian apps. And Matt argues that polluted skies are somehow better for us. Or something.
