Internet & Cable Technician (with Frank Bartlett)
from Half Hour Intern · host Blake Fletcher
There are some technologies that are indispensable once discovered. Like a combination of a weed and a redwood, these technologies grow their roots so fast and so deep, that in just a short time removing them would undo the entire foundation of civilization. For me the big three would be farming, electricity, and the Internet. One allowed civilizations to exist, one allowed them to thrive, and the last allowed the whole world to connect into one big civilization…and perhaps more importantly it allowed you to read this sentence and listen to this podcast. Time to figure out what allows us to have the internet and enjoy life as we know it today.
