Show Notes
In the age of digital communication will this be enough to satisfy our need for connection?
In Episode #382 of 'Musings', Juan and I discuss: the new remote livestream setup we have with Riverside, our personal preferences for interacting with others, studies that indicate our levels of connection, the handiness of being comfortable alone, why ultimately nearly everything will be digital and whether loneliness will be lessened in the future.
A huge thanks to Dave Jones for the constant support. I've now included him as a split for all that he has done for us!
