JAIN: The last gadget purchase was purely out of curiosity. I bought a Moto G phone, just to play around with the Android interface. I primarily use my iPhone!

TALKIN CLOUD's SPIN: Is that how it was in the 1970s?
JAIN: I actually don’t drink, so no exciting answer here. I do love hot teas of all kinds though, if that counts.
