Episode 7: Black Friday and the Marketing Apocalypse

What’s in Episode 7?

Today on Speaking Human, we hold a memorial for a snack food thought to be indestructible, debate whether we or you should get a Wii U, and try to determine if mobile devices are destroying our souls. And in a last hurrah before the apocalypse, we watch in awe as Black Friday goes nuclear and swallows Thanksgiving whole.
