Technology Blows

Dan Slimmon

Like a self-driving Uber at a busy crosswalk, technological innovation keeps hurtling boldly ahead. Whether you’re choking down a mug of Keurig between back-to-back Zoom calls, granting GPS permission to the iPhone app that flashes your vape pen’s firmware, or just silently praying for the haywire inventory bot at the supermarket to come out of Sentinel Mode so you can scramble to safety, Technology Blows is the audio tour guide for your information-age malaise.

    Cash Registers and the Man Divinely Appointed to Build Them

    The cash register: a machine invented because your boss doesn't trust you to count. Join me and my guest Daniel Ryan to learn: Why we can thank the father of cash registers for B2B sales, office cafeterias, and maybe even the Buzzfeed listicleHow one man's fall from a horse led to the entire world being poisoned with leaded gasolineHow many baked potatoes is too many baked potatoesReferences: Conover, Charlotte Reeve.

    Ticketmaster: How a Company that Does Nothing Came to Own Everything (Part 2)

    On this week's episode, Meg Sinick joins me for the saga of Ticketmaster: the company that swallowed up and digested the live music industry by making a product that literally no one wants. Find out: How service fees and exclusive contracts turned the thriving music scene into a $300 Lil Jon meet-and-greet atop a pyramid of bleached skullsWhy the concentrated hate of millions of concertgoers only makes Ticketmaster more powerfulHow Taylor Swift finished what Eddie Vedder started (and also Kid Rock was there)References: Budnick, Dean, and Josh Baron.

    Marty: the Robot Doofus Haunting the Supermarket

    Marty is a fully automated dipshit that wanders around the Stop & Shop getting in everyone's way and posing for selfies. Sometimes it hugs a cancer kid.

حول

Like a self-driving Uber at a busy crosswalk, technological innovation keeps hurtling boldly ahead. Whether you’re choking down a mug of Keurig between back-to-back Zoom calls, granting GPS permission to the iPhone app that flashes your vape pen’s firmware, or just silently praying for the haywire inventory bot at the supermarket to come out of Sentinel Mode so you can scramble to safety, Technology Blows is the audio tour guide for your information-age malaise.
