In this episode of Grumpy Old Geeks, Jason and Brian dive headfirst into the latest tech absurdities, financial scandals, and Elon Musk's ongoing chaos. We start with the annual frustration of unsubscribing from an email list that just won't quit before jumping into the latest gem from Musk himself: "Some of the things that I say will be incorrect." Meanwhile, British IT worker James Howells is back with his ongoing quest to unearth his lost Bitcoin fortune—this time with a plan to buy the entire landfill where he thinks it's buried. And despite all the corporate posturing about a return to office, remote work remains steady, much to the chagrin of commercial real estate moguls still waiting for the workforce to return.The Trump Coin debacle takes center stage, where early traders made a quick $109 million, but over 800,000 investors got wrecked to $2 billion. Adding to the dystopian financial landscape, Microsoft's latest study finds that AI reliance makes people dumber, leading to cognitive atrophy as workers place too much trust in generative AI. Meanwhile, Thomson Reuters lands a major AI copyright win in the courts, striking a blow against legal AI startups. Over at Meta, the latest round of layoffs blindsided workers supposedly meeting performance expectations, proving that job security in tech is about as stable as Musk's grasp on reality. A man in Alabama pleaded guilty to hacking the SEC's X account to falsely announce Bitcoin ETF approvals, sending crypto markets on a rollercoaster ride.On the media front, Mythic Quest Season 4 is out, and we're cautiously optimistic despite needing a breather after Season 2. The White Lotus returns, but can it survive without Stifler's mom? Meanwhile, Karl Urban's role as Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat II is a big win. Walmart's acquisition of the Dawn of the Dead mall seems hilariously on-brand, while Netflix's attempt at podcasting smells like another cost-cutting maneuver. Finally, in "good news," the odds of a newly discovered asteroid hitting Earth in 2032 are rising. At least it would mean an end to Jeep's infuriating full-screen stoplight ads.

Hazrat Tipu Sultan — the 18th century ruler of Mysore who's long gone but he still can’t shake off controversies in modern Indian politics. He's perhaps one of those historical figures of India with an identity crisis. Different aspects of his rule have been highlighted by different people for political reasons... and there's really no consensus yet on how we should see his life and work in modern India. You’re listening to a special News and Views podcast on The Quint and I’m Shorbori – and yes, you guessed it right, I am gonna be talking about Tipu Sultan in this podcast and try –– with the help of scholars and historians – and understand the controversy surrounding the historical figure. Is he the Tiger of Mysore? Or Is he a tyrant? Is he a freedom fighter? Or is he a murderous bigot? Or is he perhaps the genius who used the first rockets against the British? — It all depends on who you're asking. Tune in to this podcast!
