On this week's show, Stephen and Daniel review the new Pixel 11 series and talk about Google's place in the smartphone market. Daniel is a lot warmer on the Pixel 11 than many of his peers, but Google doesn't care either way — it's after bigger fish than tech reviewers.

And they discuss this new Luddite Crew, a group of young people who embracing flip phones — or no phones at all. Now this is a movement the guys can get behind!
