It’s a brand new episode of Material, with real-time Thanksgiving traffic alerts! *Not actually true, but Google Maps has your covered. The crew auditions for GOODfest and begs for burritos, AGAIN.

This week Google Photos launched a new app, PhotoScan, that helps you digitize your old printed photos. Want to know how it works? You’ve come to the right video.

This episode comes to you from a far happier time, before ELECTION.EXE deleted our hard drives. Yasmine has a new friend at home. Andy wants a friend too, but his pre-order joy turns to ashes. Russell is at least content that Google shipped him something...though he's clearly been trumped by Yasmine.

If that's not enough, we play a game with a robot...WHO WINS? WHO DIES? THE RESULT WILL SHOCK YOU*

*no really it will, don't stick things in powerpoints kids.

Yasmine is back after taking her Pixel on Vacation. Andy wishes he was Yasmine's Pixel. Russell tries not to gloat too much over his recent win. A special guest joins us to push his iPhone and Pixel together and make them kiss.

For this special episode we talk mainly Pixel and how it stacks up to the other flagship phones. Was Hiroshi right? Will we look back in 8 years time and see this as a turning point for Android? Only one way to find out, hit that damn play button so hard you break the screen of your worthless non Pixel device and give yourself an excuse to upgrade.

Myke receives and reviews a Google Pixel XL.

Yasmine is on assignment so Russell recruits a fellow Australian to outnumber Andy. In retaliation, Andy throws poisonous spiders. Zarah has a chart of venomous snakes. That's right kids, Episode 70 of Material podcast is here!

Also we talk a lot about the Pixel and we find out who won the GREAT PIXEL RACE OF 2016.

Russell is away yet again, most likely camping out in front of a store to win the Great Pixel Race of 2016. Kristen replaces him and yet again proves that smarter and more informed co-hosts than Russell are everywhere. Yasmine fangirls over Nat & Lo. Andy blurs the background of background blurring algorithms.

The team talks Pixel, Pixel and more Pixel. Followed by some more Pixel and then in a real shock some things that aren't related to the Pixel. But really the Pixel is kind of a big deal, ok?
