This week we freak out about the future of wearable technology! (http://bit.ly/1hg4h7Q)

Technology consultant Sarah Slocum loves social media and her Google Glass, she wears them everywhere. But when she walked into Molotov's, a bar on Haight Street in San Francisco, she discovered that not everyone shares her love for wearable tech.

Also, your host makes his annual pilgrimage to SXSWi and ends up designing wearables at a surreal Hack Day. We also hear from Shingy, AOL's Digital Prophet. He believes wearables will allow us to have it both ways: we can be both digital and human.

Prêt-à-Portable

Modern world has allowed human to step out of their comfort zone and interact with each other through different types of communication. I travel the world by listening to music from all over the world and that for me is a language that I communicate effectively. Music is a form of communication on its own and if you learn to understand it then you are interacting to rest of the world.
