On this episode, Shaun and Shep recount their happy Thanksgiving holiday. Shaun goes into depth about the emergence of his multiple personalities. Is Evil Mickey taking over? Shep talks about recent parenting experiences that make him want to cry.

They then discuss how robots are learning to say "No" to human commands. What does this mean and where could this lead us?

They then talk about a company that says they will be able to resurrect humans by storing their memories, habits and personality, digitally. What the heck does that mean and what would it be like to love a machine?
