In Episode 17, Maya and Cristina explore the difficult question of male and female equality, at least as it relates to a proposition passed in Massachusetts to legalize the ability for women to walk around outside, topless, as men do. Additionally fascinating topics are the not so new and hardly revolutionary holographic developments, Google's mistakes both in products and in management structures, Facebook's latest product release (per usual) and Peter Thiel funding research about immortality. A great week for dorky news!Go topless! http://gawker.com/5680905/massachusetts-voters-reject-female-topless-equality
