S15 Ep26: S15E26 - Godly Masters of Slipper-Fu The Geek Show

    • Technology

Your friendly neighbourhood Geek Show returns with the two Robs to take you on another wild ride through the weird borders of the science, technology and culture. 



The big news this week is involves right-wing commentator and activist Alex Jones and his Infowars "media empire", and after that we find out how Facebook and Instagram plan to have people spend less time on their services - which seems quite laudable until you find out what our next item of news is ... 



Naughty Facebook. 



It's then time for the train to weirdsville where we discuss Minecraft, Christopher Robin movies, the evolution of Amazon's Alexa, "advanced" head wear from Malaysia, sharks in San Antonio and the science of urinating dogs.



That last one is not a typo.



It really is a weird, weird world out there.

Thanks, and until next time, don't read anything we wouldn't!And until next time, remember, fact is far weirder than fiction.
