174 – I’m a Slave 4 Endorphins
We take a brisk tour through various current AI implications. A “free” 55-inch flat screen TV that merely wants to turn your living room into a advert-hellscape. A possibly inebriated driver switches seats with his dog, the officer in question may never notice the oddness of this. In Portugal, canine lifespan records, shattered. Some annoying […]

169 – Give Me Stock Buybacks or Give Me Death
Competitive grave digging in “vampiric” Eastern Europe. The world's tallest jail—who dare says the US can't still aspire to greatness? In China, fifty year old “Uncle Chen” can beat the average marathon time—while chain-smoking the whole way. The constellation of handlers, pharmacists, and groper-conversion-therapists that comprise “Joe Biden” asked the “Presidential Emergency Board” to weigh […]

168 – Make Neoliberalism Based Again? feat. Timothy Robert Buechner
