Episode description

Is technology making us lonely, stressed out, insecure, and narcissistic? In this TechFirst with John Koetsier we dive into a 2,000-person study on the impact of technology and mobile devices on: 

 - mental health 

 - loneliness 

 - narcissism 

 - social isolation

The news is not great ...

I chat with futurist Nikolas Badminton and researcher Nick Black to go through their study.
