Should we bring back landlines?
Landlines are dead…but what would it take to bring them back? In this episode, Biz joins Jesse, Simon, and Romain as they discuss how we could bring one of the more recent forgotten pieces of technology back into our lives.
What starts as a conversation about reducing screen time quickly turns into a bigger debate about purpose, nostalgia, and whether has just moved past communal technology. Could landlines be reimagined for modern life? How do other “old” things manage to feel cool again? And is there something we’ve lost by abandoning them entirely? It’s a tough, wide-ranging discussion with plenty of disagreement and a few completely unexpected ideas. Check it out.
