  1. I dont hear any sound .. bugger.,. its like some weird mime guessing game or something.

    At some point they will get sound and video to work.. consistently right?

    As a premium member it’s really frustrating how many of the videos/content that I love here.. either have messed up sound or video.. makes me sad face 🙁

  2. ok weird.. there is sound on the sound only version (on the right).. but not on the video… they are playing with my emotions!

    Maybe if I click play at the exact same time… hmm.. it’s like turning the missile keys!

  3. will’s out on a location shoot right now, but i let him know. hope to get this fixed for you guys in a bit. sorry about that.

  4. It’s a cunning test of course to see who is capable of synchronising audio to video. Only the nimble-fingered get the full user experience!

  5. One quick point re: Snowden’s release vs Sony release: my understanding is that Snowden gave the documents to a very select group of journalists who he trusted whereas the Sony hackers published their documents to the whole internet. Snowden trusted the journalists he contacted to determine what should and should not be published.

  6. @abrahammhatch just watched 3 episodes of Black Mirror, they are scary as … and very well made. And clever. The one titled ‘White Bear’ might be the best one yet. Thank you for a very interesting cultural gem that I wouldn’t have found otherwise.

  7. Time for a Korean lesson. My Korean skills are usually useless.

    감자(gam-cha) fries at 나무(namoo).

    감자 means potato, while 나무 means tree. There is a Korean trend of naming restaurants by adding ‘namoo’ in the title. FYI.

    I have never seen those type of fries in Seoul. If I ever make it to SF, I would love to try them.

  8. Should Sony have even produced “The Interview”? How would the US react if some other country produced a film about assassinating the current president? I’m sure it was a halarious movie, but it’s in bad taste to begin with.

    Keep up the great podcasts guys.

  9. They have, and no one knows about it.

    Be it in bad taste or not, it’s a comedy, and the thought that you’re defending the feelings of a horrible dictator who oppresses his entire populace sickens me.

  10. I’ve loved all the episodes of Black Mirror

    But the newest one “White Christmas” was the best by far!

    Keep up the awesome

    Cheers

  11. Odd that Adam doesn’t watch cable TV or see much reason to subscribe, when his main income is from a cable TV show. It’d be interesting to hear his reflections on where that’s going – will Mythbusters still be financially viable if no-one watches Discovery with adverts? Could it have started up without cable money behind it? (Not even mentioning the recently sensitive question of talent salary bills…)
