82: I Can Haz Ubercorn?

82: I Can Haz Ubercorn?

Brian hammers home some more bad news about the sharing economy and Uber. Many people are in search of the elusive Ubercorn. Why is hash-tagging done so poorly. Anonymity online is a fools errand. More books, podcasts, and even an app!

The 'Horribleification' of the Internet. And the music biz is still dead.
