Show Notes
Was it a social experiment gone wrong? Or did it produce results exactly as intended? In 2014, robotics and communications scholars developed hitchBOT, a hitchhiking robot. It made its way across Canada, Germany and The Netherlands, but couldn't make it 2 weeks in the USA without being destroyed. In this episode, we tell the story about the life and death of the hitchhiking robot, then play the quick quiz with Comedian Glen Tickle.
