Keith chats with Professor Joseph Trunzo, a professor of psychology at Bryant University about how smartphones are affecting behaviors, as well as whether there will be long-term effects of social media addiction as this generation moves into the workforce.

I remember growing up as a kid in the 80's & 90's, our parents disciplining us to avoid the dependency of watching TV so much to curb the addiction to TV. Its crazy how this argument pale in comparison to what is now today the advent of Phones and Social Media, how the technology has greatly impacted our society today both negatively and positively.
