In the continuing saga of catching up on podcasts, this episode was half eaten by digital wombats.

We’re catching up.

Tonight on the show: Scojo, Churba, and Victor

– Net Neutrality: what has happened, what hasnt, and what needs to be done.

Thank you to all of you for listening, but especially to our Patreon Supporters for kicking in a little money each month to help make this possible. Specifically, thank you to Kate Macintyre-Ross, Zareh Gorjian, Rin-senpai, Funeral Cleavage, Rochelle Mantanona, and the GeekNights Podcast for donating $5 or more each month. I also want to thank all of our guest who put in some of their valuable free time to come onto the show. Without them, it would just be me and Churba, and who the hell would listen to that?

On this episode, ScoJo, Churba, and Victor talk about:

Harvey Weinstien stuff.

Is the parochialness of American news damaging to Americans?

Our homes are being fractured technologically by smart devices into multiple walled gardens. Should there be some sort of mandate to force, say, Alexa, Cortana, and Google Home to play nice together? Or should the market decide?

Finally, what’s making you feel good this week?

Tonight on Friday Night Party Line, we have Rym, George, Scojo, Churba, and Victor!
