Smart technology is great — until it responds in a way you weren’t expecting.
In this episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome, Mike and Darin share a strange interaction with a voice assistant that quickly spirals into a conversation about accidental commands, misunderstood phrasing, and the growing discomfort of devices that are always listening. What starts as a joke turns into a reflection on how technology has changed everyday interactions.
Along the way, the guys explore why people feel awkward talking to machines, how easily tone and intent get lost, and why humor quickly gives way to unease when technology responds incorrectly. It’s a relatable look at the small frustrations and strange moments that come with living in a “smart” world.
If you enjoy comedy podcasts that find humor in modern tech problems and everyday awkwardness, this episode delivers classic Irritable Dad Syndrome energy.
