No one, not even you dear listener, deserves a Nonsense-free August.  So we airlifted Jeff out of the South Pacific and woke up cj by poking him with a stick so that we could bring you this one, stellar episode this month.

We get asked all the time: is Google the new Standard Oil or just a picked-on tech giant? Join us as we dive into the world of antitrust law and explore whether Google's dominance is a threat to competition or a reward for innovation. We'll uncover the potential impact on you and your digital life, and get cj incredibly worked up over some of the shitty Q&A products still on the market. 

Get ready to question everything you know about search.
