Brett and Christina dive into the best of current and past television, and then music by way of recent documentaries, finishing up with a scintillating conversation that will alienate their entire Mormon listenership.
Christina and Brett discuss (legal) drug problems, homemade pasta, and Norman Reedus make-out protocols. They close out the show discussing the new Apple TV (free of mutual NDAs) and catching up on their movie and TV watching.
Christina and Brett adapt to new phones, new Marked is submitted to the App Store, iFixit gets yanked, and another installment of Brett's marathon wrestling match with the Mental Health Medicine Industrial Complex. The good news? Horror is getting better again. Also: a special prize to the first listener who can place what this episode's title is a placeholder for (a phrase said during the episode).

Lacking insurance-provided Actual Drugs, Christina gets Brett hooked on XOXO, the hip new street junk. They dig deep on TV ads: the good, the bad, and the ugly...right before a limited-length ad break not brought to you by Fantasy Football. Oh yeah and the title. Thank...Siri?
Christina and Brett talk travel, toilets, more about toilets, and Inside Out, with a side of lobster. Recorded on Labor Day and provided as respite from 2-plus-hour tech podcasts previewing or rehashing Apple's September Event, they talk more abstractly about things they'd love to see emerge in terms of how their Apple stuff works...when not doing a deep dive on toilets. Wait.
Taylor Swift owns the world, Christina and Brett just live in it. Freshly returned from her Taycation, Christina recounts the electrifying experience of flying cross-country for a cost comparable to that of a new MacBook and counsels Brett on avoiding pesky laws when going after the drugs you need. Ignore what we say about "no show next week". Probably. We think.
