## Resource

This week starts with plans to see Damon Wayans Jr. (Coach, from New Girl) and somehow turns into a full therapy session about all the little ways technology can sometimes frustrate us a bit (even as two tech evangelists). Ian and Kat riff on the everyday tech frustrations that seem small until they absolutely are not—printers that still don’t work, painful guest Wi-Fi experiences, verification codes that take forever, streaming apps that somehow make watching TV harder, and the very specific betrayal of getting a “your order has shipped” email when all that’s actually happened is a label was created. Along the way, they talk about the weirdly exhausting parts of living online, from constant customer surveys to impossible CAPTCHA tests to the realization that sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is literally Brick your phone for a day. It’s part rant, part group chat, and very much one of those episodes where if you’ve ever muttered “why is this still so bad?” at a piece of technology, you’ll probably feel seen.
