HQ Number Two feat. Adam Smith

Everyone loves a synergy these days (just ask Bill de Blasio). You can synergize the relationship between your phone and the cops, between public transit and the cops, between your home and the cops, and -- most importantly -- between your personal data and Jeff Bezos’ wealth. On this week’s Trashfuture, Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani) spoke with PCMag contributing editor Adam Smith (@adamndsmith) about Amazon HQ2's big money shit all over New York and Northern Virginia, and why it's going to make the city suck. Then, we talk about Adam's visit to the Smart Cities conference in Barcelna, the coming presence of 5G everywhere, and the shimmering hell they offer us. No, not that Adam Smith.

Special note: Hussein recorded this from Jacob Wohl’s infamous hipster coffee shop in Brooklyn. Which is why you can literally hear people saying “eyyy, whattadafuck” in the background. Sorry!
