Every Tuesday at 7:30 a.m., John Moe stops into the Morning Show to share the latest news in technology.

This week, John shared an app that matches people with their dog breed, and a new theory that suggests "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" syncs up perfectly with Pink Floyd's 1973 album Dark Side Of The Moon.

Fetch is a new app that determines what dog breed you'd be based on your photo.

Elsewhere in the hive, Consequence Of Sound says that if you hit play on Dark Side Of The Moon as the opening scroll finishes, the album lines up with several scenes from the film.

John Moe co-hosts the podcast Conversation Parade (with Open Mike Eagle) on the Infinite Guest network, and is an author of a number of books, including The Deleted Emails of Hilary Clinton: A Parody and Dear Luke, We Need To Talk, Darth: And Other Pop Culture Correspondences.
