    #54: Give Me All the Nannies

    May 10th, 2018 · 57 minutes

    This week brought developer conferences from Google and Microsoft, and with them came a lot of news. We discuss Google's commitment to "digital well-being", updates to Google Assistant, an unnerving phone call from a robot, Microsoft's snuggling up to your iPhones and Android devices, and there's potential fraud in the land of fuzzy puppies.

    Guest Starring: Florence Ion and Mikah Sargent
