Back to Work Episode 346: Disagreement of the Genders
TOPIC: Turns out.
This week, the boys talk about audio problems, hot dogs, kegeling, Merlin's next meet-up, Tsum Tsums, comic suggestions, Battle of the Sexes, excellent recent TV series, All the President's Men, the app Pacifica, warming buns, Dan's encounter with Koo Koo Kanga Roo, a dearth of good information about VPNs (yikes!), levels of "Turns Out," a podcast episode about gluten, and hot phones with possibly low batteries.
In a very surprising "turns out," Dan has a surprising call that leads to a very interesting experience with a hardware device. Dan really wants macOS on an iPad. Don't at him.
There's also some fruitful if fraught discussion about habit-building. Merlin is not a fan of "The Countdown."
Dan is attacked by a sky spider and might have to move now.
