74: And It Was GOODfest

Material

It’s a brand new episode of Material, with real-time Thanksgiving traffic alerts! *Not actually true, but Google Maps has your covered. The crew auditions for GOODfest and begs for burritos, AGAIN.

Phones wake up from their slumber with Daydream ready capabilities. One day, you too may become Daydream ready. Hold strong little phone, you can do it. In the meantime keep giving Google heartbeat data, I mean hugs.

Drones, the end of the world as we know it?
