Welcome to the Contrafabulists podcast, Kin Lane and Audrey Watters' (somewhat) weekly discussion of the latest technology (and politics of technology) news.

We are back after a lengthy break to talk about 2017: what happened in tech and what happened in politics and what happened to The Contrafabulists.

Here are the stories we referenced:

• "The Stories We Were Told in 2017 about Education Technology" by Audrey

Feedback is welcome. (You should email Kin with it though, not Audrey.)
