  <description>&lt;p&gt;Vaden comes battle-hardened and ready to debate and is met with ... a big soft hug from Ben. Ben repents his apocalyptic sins and admits that Vaden changed his mind. Again. God dammit this is getting annoying. To his credit, Vaden only gloats for 10 minutes.  Eventually we touch on some other topics: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;technology as filling niches&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;when is outrage appropriate? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;the upsides of social media &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;conversation as a substitute for violence &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Much love to everyone and stay safe out there! Send us some feedback at incrementspodcast@gmail.com &lt;/p&gt;
