Mic check. One two. Testing. This week Matt and Rich try to figure out exactly when everyday life became a never-ending series of tests with no clear meaning. 

From the moral purity maze of modern dating rituals to the social power of rideshare operators and the Captchas that prove you’re human while training an AI, life has become a hero’s journey of inconsequence and weaponized politeness. 

Is this intro a test? If so, is it testing your patience or your resolve? We don’t know either. And we aren’t sure that listening will help.
