Read transcriptThe year was 2006. The Game Boy Advance was winding down, the Justice League animated series had wrapped up, and someone at WayForward Technologies looked at a tiny handheld screen and said, “You know what this needs? The Flash. Running very fast. On a cartridge the size of a business card.” And honestly? Bold decision. Justice League Heroes: The Flash took the Game Boy Advance, the beloved animated series, and a Justice League comic run and asked the eternal question: how many Rogues can you stuff into a handheld beat-em-up before the whole thing starts wobbling? This episode, we're finding out. We're covering the comics, the game, the cartoon connections, and whether Barry Allen or Wally West gets more respect in a world that keeps giving them both the speed force and zero chill. Joining us to run this whole thing down is Marrilee O'Neil from Fear Coded, who brings exactly the right energy for a conversation about a game that moves fast and expects you to keep up. So strap in, try not to blink, and let's do this before the Flash gets impatient and reruns the episode himself. Learn such things as: Why couldn't this have just been part of Justice League Heroes? What is the best way to experience time manipulation? Does it really matter if you get to play as Wally or Barry here? And so much more! You can find Merrilee being the main driver of the Fear Coded account on BlueSky @fearcodedpod.bsky.social on her podcast Fear Coded.

Slick interfaces, instant productivity, and AI platforms that look and feel like they were built by software giants. By all logic, one would logically assume they're making us more secure and professional. Yet, far too frequently, the exact opposite is happening, and we are witnessing the death of the professional "safety floor" in software. The reality is rooted in aesthetic deception. This week, I examine the rise of "vibe-coded" tools built by enthusiasts with professional-grade AI but back-ends held together by digital duct tape. While we have just started getting to the point where people are working to guard against basic data leaks, we're entering the era of application intimacy, granting "always-on" access to our most sensitive digital environments in exchange for minor conveniences. Given that, we have to move beyond basic data security and develop surgical discernment while also removing the bureaucratic friction that forces employees to go rogue in the first place.My goal is to get you off cruise control by highlighting the following opportunities to protect yourself and your organization:Developing Your ROI Smell Test: We've been told that if a product is free, we are the product. But vibe-coded startups are now charging for tools that still harvest your data. You must learn to interrogate the math: if an app promises to fully automate your life for $10, but the compute costs don't add up, your data is subsidizing their business. You cannot blindly trust a paid tier; you must evaluate if the provider has the "chops" and finances to actually protect you. Managing API Intimacy: We've moved from sharing email addresses to granting "API Handshakes". I break down why giving "Read/Write" access to your entire Google, Microsoft, or Slack workspace for a simple summarization tool is a catastrophic trade. You need to audit your persistent permissions this week and stop the "always-on" bridges that allow vulnerable apps to become doors into your entire digital identity. Ending the Shadow IT Insurgency: IT leaders often view employees as "bad actors" bucking the system. I share why Shadow IT is actually a symptom of Friction. If vetting a $10 tool takes three months and a decade of IT experience to navigate, you are the security risk. You must move from the "Department of No" to the "Department of How," streamlining your processes to keep high-performers within your safe ecosystem. By the end, I hope you see that being future-focused isn't about slowing down. It's about having the right strategic friction to keep you from going over the cliff. We can't stop when it comes to technology. Instead, it's about building the partnerships that make innovation safe. ⸻If this conversation helps you think more clearly about the future we're building, make sure to like, share, and subscribe.

What if 666 wasn't a mystery about the future—but a message about the past?In Episode 4 of this Revelation series, Jay Rogers breaks down one of the most famous numbers in the Bible and reveals its original meaning in the first-century Roman world.This episode explores how 666 functioned as a coded warning to early Christians living under the rule of Emperor Nero.In this episode:Why Revelation calls 666 “the number of a man”How gematria reveals the name Neron Kaiser = 666Why some ancient manuscripts say 616 instead of 666The widespread Roman fear of a ruler from JudeaNero's persecution of Christians after the Great FireHow coded language protected believers under tyrannyFar from a distant prophecy, 666 may have been a direct identification of the emperor persecuting the early church.

In this episode, we go beyond surface-level ideas of confidence and independence to explore what it actually means to be sovereign-coded and why so many women struggle to fully stand in it... ... even after years of inner work, and even though they *intuitively know* they're here to be noticed, make waves and stand tall. The truth is, you weren't just born sovereign. You activated this through descent, through experience, through doing the work most people avoid. ... and yet despite all of the healing and inner work, there's often still a part of you that questions whether you've earned the right to fully own it. In this episode I cover: - How Tall Poppy Syndrome and Internalised Misogyny have teamed up to keep you small - The conditioning that taught you to fear your own power - The instinct to shrink, soften, and stay acceptable - Why being fully expressed often disrupts belonging - How to hold projection, envy, and misunderstanding - The Good Girl pattern and how it undermines your authority The trith is, not everyone will understand you because they're not meant to. But if you want a bigger, more expressed life, you'll need the capacity to hold that. This is where sincere Shadow Work comes in... Tune-in for a heart-felt, firey discussion on power, projection and being a self-led woman. .... YOUR INVITATION: If you're ready to go deeper, explore my self-study program, Electric Woman.

Can you vibe code a $1.8 billion company with AI? Sam Altman predicted the one-person billion-dollar startup, and with MedVi, it might've just happened. Today on AI For Humans, we break down the story everyone in AI is talking about: two brothers vibe coded a $1.8 billion company called MedVi, running on GLP-1 supplements with $70 million in profit and a $1 million donation to an animal shelter. Sam Altman predicted the one-person billion-dollar startup two years ago and now it's real. Greg Brockman weighs in on what this means for the AI hard takeoff. Plus, Google drops Gemma 4 with small open models built for phones, laptops, and desktops. Qwen 3.6 arrives as another strong open-source contender. We've got updates on Qwopus, Turbo-Quant, and on-device AI's wild future.

For MobileViews 603, recorded on March 29, 2026, I decided to return to my classic Blue Yeti Nano microphone, which I used for hundreds of episodes in years past. Much of our hardware discussion this week centered on my ongoing fascination with the MacBook Neo. I discovered that while it officially only supports one external display, you can effectively run a three-screen setup by using an iPad as a wireless third display through the MacOS Sidecar feature. This configuration, utilizing Mac OS Continuity, allows me to control the iPad using the MacBook's keyboard and mouse, creating a highly functional workstation without the need for extra cables. Jon has adopted a similar workflow in his classroom, using an iPad alongside his MacBook to handle student attendance while presenting his slides. On the software side, we discussed the release of iOS 26.4, which introduced a "Playlist Playground" feature in Apple Music on mobile devices. This tool uses AI to generate playlists from simple text prompts, and it serves as an excellent discovery tool for investigated genres where you might not be an expert. Looking further ahead, we looked at reports that iOS 27 may finally allow Siri to integrate with third-party AI chatbots like Gemini or ChatGPT. Since neither of us is a major fan of the current Siri, being able to choose a preferred chatbot would be a welcome change. As we approached Apple's 50th anniversary as an incorporated entity on April 1st, I reflected on the history of "tiny teams" in technology. While modern projects often involve hundreds of people, many of the most foundational tools—such as Apple DOS, CPM, and VisiCalc—were built by just one or two individuals. For instance, Paul Laughton built the first disk operating system for Apple in just 35 days by himself. We even saw this principle in action this week with Jon's new project, "Different Enough". He built this statistical testing website using GitHub Pages, TypeScript, and React in just 90 minutes. His secret was using ChatGPT to "interview" him about his requirements before generating a prompt for OpenAI Codex to build the final application. We followed up on the Adobe Podcast video test from last week; while the speaker identification worked well for the transcript, I had to boost the output volume significantly in post-production because it was surprisingly low. Jon also shared a bug he encountered with the Plaud Note platform, which misidentified a speaker by tagging the same student profile 20 times across different meetings with different students.. On a more aesthetic note, I shared Casio's announcement of a Japanese Lacquer Edition calculator. It is such a beautiful piece of craftsmanship that I'm now hoping Apple considers a lacquer edition for their MacBook line. What I found truly remarkable was that Jon was able to build a working model in only 90 minutes. He used what he calls a "one-two punch" with AI tools: The Interview: He first used regular ChatGPT to "interview" him about his specific requirements and ideas. The Build: Once the requirements were fleshed out, he had the AI write a high-quality prompt for OpenAI Codex, which then built the actual application using TypeScript and React. The project is currently hosted on GitHub Pages, which Jon set up so that the site automatically rebuilds and deploys in about a minute every time he pushes a change to his repository. To make the tool more accessible, he included real-world examples, such as independent t-tests for tutoring programs and chi-squared independence tests for marketing surveys

Read transcriptSome licensed games take you to fantastical worlds filled with wonder and adventure. This is not one of those games. This time on Play Comics we're trudging through the smoke-filled, demon-splattered streets of Constantine (2005), the tie-in that asked, “What if we took Keanu Reeves, a theological horror film, and the PS2's most dramatic lighting engine, and just… saw what happened?” Somehow it's a third-person action game, a movie adaptation, and a vaguely spiritual experience about regretting your rental choices all at the same time. Chris isn't wandering this half-lit hellscape alone though. Merrilee O'Neil from Fear Coded jumps into the exorcism circle to help figure out where this game lands on the spectrum from “surprisingly solid” to “should've stayed in development hell.” Together they're digging into how much of the comic DNA and film mood actually survived the trip through Bits Studios and THQ, and how often it just turns into early-2000s “shoot the demon, ask theology questions later” energy. So grab your PS2 or Xbox controller, light a metaphorical cigarette (or maybe don't, your lungs will thank you), and step into a world where holy relics share inventory space with questionable game design choices. Expect demons, exorcisms, and more snark than you can fit into one trench coat as Chris and Merrilee poke at what works, what doesn't, and why this particular slice of licensed weirdness still lingers like the smell of burnt incense in a game store bargain bin Learn such things as: Do demons care about hit points? How do the timelines of the movie vs the game development interact with each other? Did this game even have a chance when it had to pick between being true to the movie or the comic source material? And so much more! You can find Merrilee being the main driver of the Fear Coded account on BlueSky @fearcodedpod.bsky.social on her podcast Fear Coded.

Igor Andriushchenko joins Crying Out Cloud to explain how vibe coding changes the role of security engineers. The shift from typing lines of code to shaping entire systems means security teams need new strategies. Developers expect their shipping velocity to increase tenfold with AI assistance. Relying on traditional hard deployment blocks will only cause friction. If you want to understand how to build secure guardrails for AI development without destroying developer momentum, this conversation covers the exact mechanics.What's Inside:The evolution of the Stockholm tech scene and human ambition driven by AI.How Lovable empowers non-developers to build disposable and deeply specific software.The concept of "soft guardrails" and why hard blocks fail in AI-assisted workflows.Future capabilities of AI pen testing using hundreds of autonomous agents.The shared responsibility model when business users build internal applications.

Anika and Liz go out on a training exercise that definitely won't go horribly wrong! We're discussing Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's "Come, Let's Away", and talking about... We really like how the season slowed down and gave us some slice of life stories and heavy characterisation -- and now, at the midpoint of the season, everything changes This is a great episode for exploring Nahla, but Anika has had enough of Nus Braka It's time to face facts: Admiral Vance is pretty, but he's not clever Nus Braka versus Osyraa: we firmly believe the only reason he's as powerful as he is now is that her death created a vacuum Comics and popular culture as art, as inspiration, as propaganda; uh, is it bad when your fun Star Trek for teens starts referencing Grave of the Fireflies? (But it's weird that Tales from the Frontier had no female characters, right? RIGHT?) Women's voices are heavily policed and criticised, so Tarima's power is interesting Vance is a 2020s centrist: he likes the idea of having ideals, but isn't quite sure how to go about putting them in action. Is that unfair? Will Liz ever be able to talk about Vance without bringing up Rayner? Is it wrong to ship Vance/Braka?
Jeff & Shannon celebrate Jeff's birthday (shared with Lincoln's 217th), shred Dataset 12's coded journals exposing a teenage victim's nightmare as a human incubator in Epstein's depraved breeding program, connect Bannon's Epstein ties, and call out elite protection rackets. Tune in at Rumble, YouTube, X and Red State Talk Radio! Patriots, hold on tight—this episode packs a patriotic punch from start to finish in **Season 8, Episode 029, "The Coded Journals in the Epstein Files That Hide a Teenage Girl's Horrific Story"**! @intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove kick things off with a massive surprise birthday bash for Jeff (@intheMatrixxx), who shares the date with Abraham Lincoln's 217th birthday. Custom songs from Mikey Mariano, AARP memes, viewer Rumble rants, gift subs, and even a special "Happy birthday, Jeffrey, you're a true patriot" text straight from President Trump set the high-energy tone. Jeff reflects on his premature birth in the Land of Lincoln, breech at 5.7 ounces, and growing up with the Emancipation Proclamation on the wall—perfect backdrop for honoring the man who kept America from being torn apart by globalist bankers. Then the show dives straight into the gut-wrenching core: **Dataset 12** from the justice.gov/Epstein files, released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. These are the raw, coded journals of a teenage victim starting at age 16—magazine cutouts, glued birthday cards for her 16th, sonograms, Sylvia Plath poems with underlined lines, and vertically readable handwritten codes documenting years of sexual slavery, repeated forced pregnancies, and babies ripped away minutes after birth, sometimes with Ghislaine Maxwell in the room ordering her to "close your eyes." She names the monsters: Leon Black (violent rapes), George Mitchell, Ted Leonsis, Steve Case, James Kimsey, John Colgan, "The Gregorys," and more from the flights and yachts of horror. The victim describes being used as a "human incubator" for a so-called superior gene pool—Epstein's eugenics obsession tied to hair color, eye color, musical talent—feeling "very Nazi-like" in her own words. This isn't speculation; it's her documented trauma, provable in court, exposing a systematic breeding program the mainstream media blackouts while obsessing over distractions. Jeff and Shannon connect the dots they've been targeted for years over: genetics, bloodlines, MKUltra-style programming, hot/cold treatment, compartmentalized minds, and the "born in" pattern from historical operations like Paperclip. They contrast this hard evidence against Pizzagate-style noise, slam the two-tiered justice system protecting elites, and spotlight networks working overtime to silence the truth—including deep ties like Steve Bannon borrowing Epstein's plane (not friendship, but partnership and cohorts), his silence on the files, and contradictions to his public MAGA persona. They also break down the Super Bowl LIX Bad Bunny halftime viewership crash (nearly 20% drops in markets like Boston and Seattle), elite disconnect, virtue-signaling rage bait, and the NFL's shame—plus a quick hat tip to Pam Bondi's congressional "Anons" gesture on Brennan indictments. After 8 years of fighting censorship, deplatforming, and attacks for exposing bloodline control and child protection, the message is clear: enough is enough. The truth is learned, never told. The constitution is your weapon. Tune in at noon-0-five Eastern LIVE to stand with Trump!

Over the last few weeks, the Trump administration has explicitly or implicitly borrowed from the Nazi tradition on social media.Specific passages or iconography from the Third Reich have been repurposed in the context of the government's own legislative program today. The adoption of these extreme symbols, dog whistles and phrases is part of a re-mainstreaming of fascist and Nazi ideas more broadly.Ali Breland, a staff writer at The Atlantic, explains why he sees it as part of an attempt to remake the U.S. from a country defined by ideas like liberty and equality, to one defined by bloodline and heritage.
As a saxophonist in Boston's Klezmer Conservatory Band in 1985, Merryl Goldberg traveled to the Soviet Union to meet up with another group of musicians, The Phantom Orchestra. The Phantom Orchestra would be sharing more than good tunes with Merryl. They'd also pass along information, including the names of people who wanted to escape the Soviet Union, which Merryl and her friends would then smuggle back to the United States. To do this, Merryl made up a secret code, hidden in sheet music. Now Merryl's spy days are long behind her. But she is still passionate about how music and other arts can enrich other fields, including cybersecurity.

Fran and Alvin are BACK and they're kicking off 2026 by discussing the consequences of ICE's actions, the legacy of John Brown as an abolitionist, the oversimplification of slavery's history, and the intertwined nature of race and identity in discussions of privilege and activism. They discuss how humor is often used to navigate racial stereotypes and the impact of systemic racism on personal experiences. The dialogue also touches on the historical context of the Fugitive Slave Act and the polarization of America during the time of John Brown, drawing parallels to contemporary issues of race and justice.

Amanda Montell returns for round two, diving into what she's learned since Cultish dropped: Instagram comment wars as tribal battlegrounds, "platforming" as a thought-terminating cliché, and why understanding opposing views could get you canceled. We bonded over podcast economics, navigated controversy around Sounds Like a Cult episodes on Waldorf and fertility, discussed which cult she'd have joined (artist-led, obviously), and took a truly unhinged detour into vampire raves, Gen Z slang, and the etymology of "no cap."

Amanda Montell—author, linguist, and our reigning three-time champion guest—returns in studio to talk about the newly released paperback edition of Cultish, the book that launched a thousand cult-discourse hot takes and made us all think twice about our SoulCycle memberships. We dove into what it's like to write a cult book when you're 27, watch it blow up unexpectedly, and face the onslaught of feedback (good, bad, and "I want to ruin your life"). Amanda opened up about the changes she made for the paperback after years of listening, learning, and hiring her own sensitivity checkers, and why the brainwashing debate is way more nuanced than an X thread can handle. Plus: updates on married life, her forthcoming novel Where To Put Your Tongue (yes, really), and why OneTaste's "get off on any stroke" might be the culty-est thought-terminating cliché we've ever heard.Stay tuned Thursday for part 2, follow Amanda on Instagram @amanda_montell and the Sounds Like a Cult podcast @soundslikeacultpod.
