Steve and Kim explore the unexpected ways technology helps us stay connected during the holiday season. From video calls that replace expensive flights to online games, streaming traditions and shared playlists, they ask whether the tech we blame for disconnecting us can actually bring us closer.
Holiday traditions have shifted over time, from handwritten cards and chaotic long-distance calls to streaming the same movies together and rewatching favorites like Stranger Things. Steve and Kim also talk about online game nights that feel like a second living room, including Jackbox and the classic couch co-op games that bring everyone into the fun. The episode touches on year-end posts, digital gift cards and simple ways to set healthy boundaries so tech supports being present instead of distraction, plus a few light horror stories from the pre-smartphone days.
