Technology gives us so many new things that make life easier, but the confronting truth is that as our devices get smarter, they are actually making us dumber.

It's man vs machine, and our ability to stay relevant is needed now more than ever before.

The pair also unpack:

How to keep our minds and memories sharp

Tips for eliminating distractions

How memories are formed

Could socialising be the best brain exercise?; and

Managing that technology overload.
