Logging Off: Revisiting Analog Technology in a Digital World with David Sax

For the past year, I’ve immersed myself in the world of AI and cutting-edge technologies shaping our future. The digital revolution offers endless opportunities for advanced ways we can express and connect, fueling my thirst for knowledge in this space.

But as we approach the holidays, I eagerly anticipate the simple joys of the season, from building gingerbread houses with my 7 grandkids to relishing the warmth of our family gatherings. There's a magical quality to unplugging and creating lasting memories during this special time.

David Sax, my guest today on Celebrations Chatter, is a journalist and author of "The Future is Analog,” which explores the delicate balance between the digital and analog aspects of our lives. As new tech offers limitless possibilities, it's fascinating to witness a return to analog devices like vinyl records, disposable or Polaroid cameras, and my personal holiday favorite, family board games. 

Joined by 1-800-Flowers.com Managing Editor Matt Fordahl, we unravel society's evolving relationship with digital technology and reflect on our increased craving for human connections seen during the pandemic.  What does the future hold for humanity in the age of advancing AI?
