Listen "Should We Fear the Metaverse?"
Episode Synopsis
Facebook recently made waves in the press when it announced plans to create a more immersive online experience, something it described as the 'metaverse.' Facebook even changed its name to 'Meta' as part of this initiative. But what exactly is the metaverse? That depends on who you ask.

(Update from Ben - just a few days after we recorded this, Facebook stock tanked. Maybe the market agrees with us?)
