Part 3 of my conversation with guest Matt Phillion as we discuss short attention spans. Listen to the episode below or download directly (right click and "save as").
 

Show notes:
- Order Matt's book The Entropy of Everything: The Indestructibles Book 3
- Fear of wasting time or fear of missing out?
- Phone calls are rare and annoying
- Tinder = instantaneous hookups
- Jay: Thankful to have been in the dating Dark Ages
- Guys are born stupid
- Telephone hangups used to be way more dramatic
- How often do you just hang out with a friend and talk?
- Writing letters is a lost art
- Friends who aren't on social media are lost or forgotten
- How much faster can life get?
- We still slow down occasionally
- Nothing slows you down like a baby falling asleep on you
