A Confused Mixture

The irony of this episode is that you're probably listening to it on the device we're critiquing... a smartphone. How do sinister empires benefit from our addiction to our devices? What do our phones have to do with the soul-sucking, undefeatable celebrity worship culture all around us? What does it have to do with fantasies of minimalism? Could we get any more esoteric in this episode?!! PS. My Little Pony, and royal family follow up.
