Show Notes

The girlies ring in the new year by investigating what plagues us all - smartphone addiction. They look into the research surrounding smartphones and social media to answer the important questions: Why are they so addictive and what are they doing to our brains? What would Karl Marx say about digital social capital? And most importantly.. why aren't the teens having sex like they used to? Plus, they reveal the first ever Binchtopia experiment.
