As the world recovers from Black Friday and the Thanksgiving holidays, we thought it was a good time to discuss some of the ways that we use mobile devices such as tablets.

Do we use them as primary devices for content consumption and/or production or do we need a bit more power and functionality than most devices offer by themselves?

We also discuss Black Friday and even play a live game of Pac-Mac during the episode thanks to the new gaming feature in Facebook Messenger.
