Show Notes
This week, Darren looks into the science of late summer and why we get that sudden feeling that summer is gone. Honorary TRC'er and resident machine learning expert Dallas Card joins the Toronto crew in-studio to dissect whether algorithms can be biased. Finally, after hearing a female adaptation of Lord of the Flies is in the works, Adam asks whether the movie's concept is even plausible. PS. If you 'get' this week's photo, you win the internet.
