What are the effects of having so much technology at our fingertips? Are we connected to too much information at once? Is technology shortening our attention spans? Zachary and Emma speak with Gloria Mark, psychologist and author of "Attention Span: A Groundbreaking Way to Restore Balance, Happiness and Productivity." They discuss the decrease of attention span over the years, ways to read and listen without distraction, and the emotional residue left by social media.

What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
