This week we chat about interesting cultural differences and play a “coin guessing” game (which is more fun than it sounds), where we slowly uncover that Zach might not actually be Australian… For the later half of the show, we chat about some more tech focused topics, like Apple’s potential future VR and AR products as well as Facebook’s Giphy acquisition.
