Episode Synopsis

We touch on two topics today. First, the counterfeit goods industry - how big it is, how powerful, how damaging, and how we can ensure that the things we buy online are real and original. (Spoiler alert: Simi says she'll go home and smell her shoes to make sure they're not fake!)


And then we discuss the gaming industry, which is bigger than you may think. We delve into its often-ignored dark side - overtime, no extra pay, cyclical lay-offs, and generally dubious labour conditions.
