#31:'Multiple People Read This' - a podcast by Cher Vincent and James T. Green
from 2022-03-07T00:44:22.303137
This week, Cher and James discuss read receipts. From text messaging to Facebook Messenger to Outlook, they dissect what’s wrong with them, and how to make them work. In the aftershow, Cher talks about her favorite culture year end wrap-ups, and James has a crush on a fictional character from a film franchise.
