On this episode of That Don’t Sound Right, Peter and Cecil dig into the growing trend of phone-free restaurants—where your device might end up locked in a drawer, swapped for a Polaroid, or simply banned at the door. The goal? Less scrolling, more actual conversation.

The guys explore why some venues are pushing back against constant Instagramming and notifications, and whether it really makes for a better experience—or just creates new frustrations. Along the way, they branch out into other phone-free zones like schools, churches, concerts, and workplaces, asking where these rules make sense… and where they might go too far.

With plenty of personal stories—from retreats and babysitters to backpacking trips—they weigh the safety trade-offs against the value of being fully present. And true to the show’s roots, they tackle it all without Googling mid-conversation.

Is unplugging the secret to better connection—or does that idea not quite hold up?

Listen in, and if you catch yourself thinking, that don’t sound right… you know what to do.
