Private Investigators

This week we decide to give back. That’s right, it’s yet another episode where all we do is solve your dang problems. We solve problems relating but not limited to: parents who don’t want you to bring your laptop on the plane even though you want to bring your laptop on the plane, naming children and polishing your resume. Also this week Tim talks about navigating supermarkets in a post-iPhone world.

All of these questions and more are answered in the vaguest terms possible. Also Tom shaves his head by accident and we solve a listener problem concerning not having enough work to do at work.
