Buffering at 42,000 Feet: My Slow Descent Into Wi-Fi Madness
Sep 26, 202400:32:08Tap to summarizeI began to wonder if I’d accidentally wandered into some retro-themed, low-bandwidth, vintage-plane experience without realizing it. Did I miss the stewardess saying, “And welcome aboard Flight 972, our Heritage Edition—where we bring you the authentic 1990s flying experience, including spotty Wi-Fi, flip phones in the emergency seatbacks, and a once-a-decade view of someone turning off their Discman?”In this episode, Dan van Moll is exploring the absurdity of our 21st-century dependence on Wi-Fi as one traveler's inflight connection issues lead to a full-blown mental meltdown at 42,000 feet.
