Description
Nick and Todd talk about the way technology fits in their lives and how it affects their kids and families. They discuss the recent tech news focusing on the aspects of privacy, security, and ethics.
Despite being in different hemispheres and a ridiculous number of time zones apart, the show’s hosts have decided to keep in touch. They are based in Wellington, New Zealand, and Ann Arbor, MI, USA and can often be found at the local GDG and Cocoaheads events that they organise for their communities.
