In this episode of MashTalk, Pete, Christina and Lance discuss Mark Zuckerberg's paranoia (1:00) -- he might not be THAT paranoid -- before diving into how Siri works on macOS Sierra (9:05) and how it compares to Cortana (10:00). We then shift into some other thoughts on macOS Sierra (18:05), including Apple's increased focus on iCloud and services.

We then segue (heh) into Lance's review of the new Segway (28:15). Is it too little too late? Hoverboards are over so does this thing stand a chance? Speaking of having a chance, is Periscope having a renaissance? (36:48) After CSPAN cameras were prohibited from covering the sit-in/protest over gun control, Democrats broadcast the happenings on Periscope. We talk about the broader implications for live video.
