It has been dubbed our most random episode yet. We first head to Berlin for IFA 2018 and peek into the not-too-distant future where bezels have left the human race and it’s all screen, all of the time. Then it’s off to Seattle where a gaggle of geese have run amok and taken over an indie gaming convention at PAX West. Finally, your grandkids have abandoned you but never you mind, just get one on-demand from the Papa app. What a time to be alive!
As always, we cover all angles using clips from different sources so you get everything you need to know, right here on The Lazy Couch Podcast.
Episode 108. Recorded Thursday 6 September 2018.
