He has served as a leading critic of digital culture and social media, and his books include You Are Not a Gadget and Who Owns the Future? In 2018, Wired Magazine named him one of the 25 most influential people in technology of the previous 25 years. Time Magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Jaron is currently the Prime Unifying Scientist at Microsoft's Office of the Chief Technology Officer, which spells out “Octopus”, in reference to his fascination with cephalopod neurology.

How aesthetic experience shapes worldview, imagination, and intellectual vocation2. The historical rivalry between artificial intelligence and cybernetics3. The danger of treating AI as an object of faith or a replacement for human meaning4. The psychological and spiritual costs of assuming people will become obsolete5.

Thank you to our Patron One In A Thousand who requested this week's book! They wrote in to us earlier this year, saying: "...At some point in your lives, you've probably experienced media that you felt was ALMOST really good, but for whatever reason it just wasn't, and media that was almost really good can be just as frustrating as outright bad media because you can see that it just needed a little bit of fixing. That's how I felt about The Third Force. It's a tie-in novel to an obscure Japanese multimedia franchise from the 90's called Gadget...Marc Laidlaw was given a lot of creative freedom to write his own interpretation of the story, including more worldbuilding and character development, to mixed results...Laidlaw has confirmed that several characters and plot points from this book went on to inspire elements of the Half-Life series, which he became the lead writer for a couple years after writing this...In a way, The Third Force is almost like a rough first draft for ideas that Laidlaw would execute in a better way later." In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes discussion or mention of brainwashing, torture, murder, and general high mind loss.

Jetzt ist es soweit: 2025 ist fast überstanden und unser Realitätsabgleich biegt auf die Zielgerade ein. Doch bevor ihr unsere Auf- und Absteiger des Jahres erfahrt, müsst ihr noch einige unangenehme Dinge über euch ergehen lassen. Bei den digitalen Inhalten haben wir zwar einige tolle Top-Nennungen zu bieten. Sie wiegen die Klagen und Sorgen aus dem Flop-Bereich bedauerlicherweise nicht ansatzweise auf: Das Streaming, der AI Slop, die Enshittification und Weltwoche Daily – das Elend kennt kaum ein Ende. Auch die Absteiger von 2025 verderben uns kurzfristig die fröhliche Stimmung. Unser Jahresrückblick lässt keinen Zweifel daran, dass 2025 viele Wendungen zum Schlechteren brachte und als ungewöhnlich düster in die Geschichte eingehen wird. Können die Aufsteiger so ausreichend Optimismus für einen angenehmen Ausklang des Jahres verbreiten? Ja, denn auch die kleinen Dinge machen Spass und beweisen, dass nicht alles schlechter wurde. Und wie immer ist unsere grösste Freude, mit euch auf 2026 anzustossen. Wir wünschen einen guten Start und freuen uns, wenn ihr uns in unserem 17. Jahr die Treue haltet. Nebenbei bemerkt, dauert es nur noch zwölf Monate, bis wir volljährig sind. Wie sich das aufs Programm auswirken wird, ist völlig offen.

Steve Caplin rounds up his favourite gadgety stories of the year. Learn how best to let oral meds work, to grow your own teeth, to hear in a noisy room, write a detective story, stop cows falling in the river and what to do if a velociraptor is chasing you. He explains why it can be cheaper to go from Cornwall to Manchester via Malaga, the over-complicated scientific way to boil eggs, the eyebrowing-raising slip-up on those old DVD piracy warnings and Google London's problems with foxes and rats. Among the inventions highlights are a giant hamster wheel for skiers, a remote-controlled coffee table with 12 legs, the WalkCar Segway and an electric skateboard that will do 45mph. All this and more in the round-up of the stories on Gadgets and Gizmos in 2025. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode, we decode On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) — the boldest, most emotionally resonant Bond film of all. Joined by Bond aficionados Ian Douglas (Hildebrand), Andy Onyx (author), and Professor Michael Huie (Friday Night Frights Podcast), we dive into George Lazenby's one-time portrayal of James Bond, Peter Hunt's risky direction, Diana Rigg's unforgettable performance, and why this film has grown from outcast to cult favourite. Full show notes and links Recorded on December 21, 2025, just in time for Christmas, Spybrary's Section F explore what makes this film unique within the Bond canon: from George Lazenby's lone turn as 007 and Peter Hunt's bold directorial choices, to the film's emotional depth, narrative risks, and iconic action sequences. Highlights include personal viewing memories, analyses of key scenes (such as the skiing and the tragic final ending), and debates about why this Bond film stands apart from its peers. 00:00 Introduction & Guest Intros 02:25 First Memories of OHSOS 06:19 Evolving Views on the Film 10:25 What Makes Peter Hunt's Approach Unique 14:50 Opening Credits & Gun Barrel Sequence 19:34 Bond's Office & Franchise Nods 22:14 What Sets This Bond Apart 25:23 Vulnerability & Romance in Bond 28:35 Gadgets, or the Lack Thereof 31:05 Tracy's Role in the Action 34:13 Music & Christmas Themes 39:42 George Lazenby: Acting & Persona 46:05 Supporting Characters & Accents 54:40 Cinematography & Skiing Sequences 55:26 Influence on Modern Films 58:10 Holiday Tone & Festive Elements 1:08:20 Standout Movie Moments 1:13:56 Trench Coat Ratings & Final Thoughts 1:18:32 Episode Close & Christmas Wishes

What happens when technology grows faster than the rules meant to guide it? We toast the season finale by tackling that question head-on—starting with a bold move to centralize AI regulation at the federal level and preempt state-by-state rules. We lay out what a single national framework could fix, what it could break, and how lobbying from the biggest AI players complicates the path forward. Uniform standards might speed innovation and reduce compliance chaos, but local expertise matters, and trust depends on safeguards that balance industry power with public interest.Then we shift from policy to pavement. Waymo keeps making headlines for the wrong reasons: riders passing out in driverless cars, a recall tied to passing stopped school buses with flashing lights, and a bizarre three-car standoff that jammed a steep San Francisco street for nearly an hour. We unpack what these incidents reveal about human behavior in autonomous systems, the limits of remote intervention, and the public's patience when “driverless” becomes neighborhood gridlock. Safety updates and voluntary recalls are essential, but accountability, transparency, and resilient design are how this technology earns the right to scale.Not everything is caution tape and traffic cones. We spotlight the AirFly Pro 2 from Twelve South, a small Bluetooth transmitter that lets two people share audio from any 3.5 mm jack—perfect for flights, older TVs, and road trips. It's simple, reliable, and exactly the kind of travel tech that quietly improves your day. We also marvel at a $380,000 “human washing machine”—part luxury, part lab experiment—hinting at future wellness and eldercare tech where biometrics and comfort meet. And we raise a glass to a standout Jack Daniel's single barrel heritage barrel release, trading tasting notes on char, sweetness, and that long, confident finish.Along the way we nod to Perl's enduring place in internet history, reminding ourselves that the tools that last aren't always the flashiest—they're the ones that solve real problems again and again. As we wrap season seven, the through-line is clear: when tech outruns law, human behavior fills the void. The best builders anticipate that gap, and the best policy keeps pace without strangling the spark. If that balance excites you as much as it challenges you, you're our kind of listener.Enjoyed the season? Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review to help others find us.

Summary In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various pressing issues surrounding gun rights, recent terror attacks, and the implications of gun control legislation. The conversation includes insights from guests Neil McCabe and AWR Hawkins, focusing on the Australia shooting incident and the cultural attitudes towards violence and self-defense. The episode emphasizes the importance of being prepared to defend oneself and the role of organizations like the NRA in advocating for gun rights. In this conversation, Mark Walters and his guests discuss various aspects of gun rights, self-defense, and the implications of gun control laws. They delve into the complexities surrounding open carry laws, the legal ramifications of self-defense incidents, and the challenges faced by law enforcement in high-stress situations. The discussion also covers the recent events in Australia, highlighting the failures of gun control measures and the impact of gun-free zones on public safety. The guests emphasize the importance of armed citizens in preventing violence and the misleading statistics often used to argue against gun rights. Takeaways The importance of self-defense in today’s society. Gun control laws often leave law-abiding citizens vulnerable. Cultural attitudes towards violence can impact responses to threats. The NRA plays a crucial role in advocating for gun rights. Recent terror attacks highlight the need for personal preparedness. Law enforcement’s response time can be critical in crisis situations. The process of gun control can be seen as punitive. Public perception of gun ownership is influenced by media narratives. Understanding the implications of political decisions on gun rights is essential. Community awareness and involvement are key in advocating for self-defense rights. Open carry can divide communities, even in gun-friendly states. Law enforcement’s response in self-defense situations is complex and often scrutinized. Self-defense incidents can lead to legal battles, regardless of the circumstances. Gun control measures in Australia have not effectively prevented violence. Gun-free zones may create vulnerabilities rather than enhance safety. Statistics on gun violence can be misleading and do not always reflect the reality of armed citizens. The presence of firearms does not inherently lead to danger; context matters. Campus carry laws can empower students to defend themselves. The nanny state can hinder effective responses to threats. Public perception of firearms is often shaped by fear rather than facts.

Apple makes a lot of gadgets. You've probably heard of some of them. Most of them are very good! Few companies in tech, or anywhere, can claim a track record as impressive and consistent as the folks in Cupertino. But only one Apple product can be the best Apple product.
