In our last episode for the year, I looked into how we've come to increasingly do things online, including finding our partners. But it made me think, are we slaves to an algorithm here too? Turns out that is true but not in the way you think. It's a fun one so we hope you enjoy it and if you've been listening to us over the course of this year, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You are the reason we keep going! Wish you a happy new year and a wonderful start to a new chapter!

This episode was supposed to be Ep 5 that we recorded prior to the rise in protests in America against the injustice and police brutality that led to the murder of George Floyd. We immediately decided to postpone the release of this episode to stand in solidarity with the black community. We've spent the last week learning as much as we could to take action in our own society. In this episode of Two cents on Thursdays, we talk about the Justice League Snyder cut, Sony smartphones trying to make a comeback, Space X launch to the ISS and much more.
