How old is too old to start using Snapchat? Why do more women than men use Pinterest? And what gadget can you now safely squeeze to death?
The Verge’s Lauren Goode, Re/code’s Kurt Wagner and special guest Tracy Chou, a software engineer at Pinterest, answered all these questions and more on the latest episode of Too Embarrassed to Ask.
In the first half of the show, Lauren and Kurt answered listener questions about how Snapchat works, why young people love it and why it was one of the most talked-about topics at Code/Media last week. Thank you to everyone who submitted questions — remember that you can always send in questions about any topic to us by tweeting @LaurenGoode, @KaraSwisher or @Recode with the hashtag #AskRecode.

In the second half of the show, Tracy Chou joined in to talk about why she disagrees with the common assumption that Pinterest is a site for women, as well as her work to encourage gender diversity in tech workplaces. Then, in "Too Embarrassed to Answer," Lauren and Kurt challenged Tracy with questions about encryption on Android, squeezable gadgets and social media avoidance.
