UPDATE: Nov. 11, 2016, 3:39 p.m. EST 。 We've learned from listeners that there's some skipping on this week's podcast that omits chunks of audio. After taking a look at the original recording, it looks like an equipment failure caused some audio to not be recorded. We're working on correcting this issue for next week's podcast. 。
Against long odds, Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton to become the president-elect of the United States of America. 。
And now people all over the world are legitimately worried about what his presidency will mean for technology. 。

Let's not beat around the bush: Trump hasn't really revealed much on where he stands on technology. That's not surprising since it's widely known that he doesn't really know much about it. 。 He didn't own a computer until at least 2007 and he doesn't "do the email thing," according to 。He didn't own a computer until at least 2007 and he doesn't "do the email thing," according to 。

We know Trump goes on tweet tirades using a Samsung Galaxy phone. But just because he managed to become a power Twitter user during his campaign doesn't mean he actually gets the tech behind it. 。
As Lance said before the election, Hillary was the only candidate who actually had a technology policy. A detailed one at that.。
With so much uncertainty, we tried to make some sense of it all. 。
We closed out the episode on a high note: Spectacles, Snapchat's camera glasses that were just released...via a vending machine. 。
The $130 glasses are surprisingly chic and comfy, as our own Saba Hamedy said in her hands-on. And they're nowhere near as dorky as Google Glass. 。 Based on the long lines of people waiting to get a pair, there've generated a lot of excitement.。I'm pretty upbeat on Spectacles, mainly because they're reasonably priced and look fashionable. Is this the future of Snapchat? Maybe, maybe not. We'll have to wait and see. 。 Maybe, maybe not. We'll have to wait and see.。
