What the hell is actually going on underneath all of this? In this episode, Jake and Jarid take on “interminable complexity”: The increasingly bizarre reality that we spend our lives using technology and systems we can’t fathom, couldn’t recreate, and require their own kind of blind faith. Your phone works. Your money moves around. Electricity comes out of the wall. Bananas somehow show up in Baltimore in February. And almost nobody understands the entire chain of events required to make any of that happen. Did we humans escape dependence on a natural world we didn’t understand by constructing an artificial world we understand even less?
Along the way, Jake debuts a new limited sound effects board, Jarid gets vulnerable about his personality and performance issues, and we learn something really odd about crickets.
