Episode #89 - Are smartphones making us dumber? James Creech, Dreadmere

James Creech (https://www.acast.com/allthingsvideo), CEO of Paladin Software (https://www.paladinsoftware.com/) and Dreadmere join the debate this week. Are smartphones making us dumber? Yes, unless you disagree with me, in which case you would be classified as "wrong." Rucka picks a neutral position while Dreadmere and James bring the heat on the "no" side. Watch the video version here at Madcast Media Network YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChMUFeIZ1l9uRJ4bIXuAKDg?sub_confirmation=1 Rucka's (https://www.youtube.com/user/itsRucka) opinion is down the middle on this one, which may be the most sensible approach. Mikey Bolts (https://www.youtube.com/user/michaelbalalis) was on fire this episode, plus our most regular guest, president Trump makes an appearance. Here's the bonus episode (https://madcastmedia.com/shows/maddoxvsuniverse/3/) for all the winners who want to support the show: https://madcastmedia.com/shows/maddoxvsuniverse/3/ And here's my new book, F*ck Whales: Petty essays from a brilliant mind: http://amzn.to/2oiF2xi We round out the episode with a Chinese woman who joins her handbag in an x-ray machine. Probably a YouTube prank coming. Plus we cap the show off with a woman who found worms in her eyes. Bet she wishes she voted for birds as the best pet a few episodes back, because birds eat worms, etc. Brilliant. The voicemail number is: 1-562-58-I-RULE (1-562-584-7853).
