Description
Hey, you wanna hear something weird? Us too!
You might have noticed tech is getting a bit dull, stale and dystopian…but there’s so much fun, cool and just plain weird tech out there.
So we’re gonna share it with each other - and you.
Hosted by technology journalists Rae Johnston (Gizmodo Australia, Queens of the Drone Age, SBS) and Tegan Jones (Gizmodo Australia, SmartCompany, Queens of the Drone Age).
