After a very rough start to 2020, Alberto and Paul are back. Apologies to everyone - this episode was recorded after CES and before the Oscars in mid-January. As things (finally) get back to normal, we're going to bombard you all with content.  In this episode, we discuss "Crunch" in videogames, the Democratic primaries, dystopian applications of facial recognition software, the value of CES, and what we're looking forward to in 2020. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-noisecast/support
