WarRoom Battleground EP 834: Machine Intelligence, Artificial Idiocracy, And A World On Edge
It's my weekly check in with Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos. The world isn't getting any less complicated but we do our best to make sense of it. We're on track to see the film "Idiocracy" become a documentary rather than entertainment. El Gato Malo has some thoughts on fertilizing the moron farm. Article of the Day: The political divide is getting larger and that can make it difficult to communicate with those we see as opponents. Annie Holmquist says the solution starts with bridging the political rift one face-to-face conversation at a time. Sponsors: Life Saving Food Fifty Two Seven Alliance HSL Ammo Quilt & Sew

Trump keeps creating all these phony crises—an 'invasion' at the border, immigrants in the interior, crime in D.C.—so he can put on a show of force for his white base. He's also declaring fake emergencies on college campuses so he can shake them down, or declaring an economic emergency to impose tariffs. Now, he's looking at a 'quick reaction force' to respond to protests. It's all a naked power grab, and a potential prequel to sending in troops during elections. Plus, Trump wants fabricated economic data, his 15% cut of Nvidia's and AMD's chip sales to China quacks like a bribe, and will "Idiocracy" come alive with a UFC Octagon on the South Lawn? .

Ladies and gentlemen, gather ‘round for a dose of reality so potent, even CNN's fact-checkers would need a lie-down afterward. We are living in the era of Donald J. Trump—a man who, against all odds, against all media hysterics, against every late-night host's nervous breakdown—continues to operate at a level that makes mere mortals look like extras in the background of Idiocracy.Now, I wasn't always a Trump acolyte. I didn't have a "Make America Great Again" hat collection in 2015. But here's the thing about reality—it has a way of humbling even the most skeptical among us. And what we're witnessing isn't just a presidency; it's a masterclass in how to dominate the global stage while your opponents are still trying to figure out why their latest smear campaign flopped harder than CNN+.Let's talk about the man's mind.

“Welcome to Costco. I love you.” Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian & Liam – with BFF of the BFE: Synthia beaming in from the not-so-distant future as we crack open the absurd, prophetic, and depressingly accurate Idiocracy (2006). We're trading shark-infested waters for Gatorade-irrigated crops and President Camacho in our 289th episode as we ask: Was Idiocracy always this smart, or has the world just gotten that dumb? We explore how a film that bombed at release has somehow become the most referenced dystopia not named Orwell. What does it say about society that Mike Judge's lowbrow future doesn't seem that far off? Synthia breaks down the subtle and not-so-subtle satire—and why this film still hits different in a post-algorithm world. Ian wonders whether the comedy lands… or whether it's just too bleak to laugh anymore. Liam confesses which part of the film made him physically cringe (hint: it's not just the opening montage). We talk about the difference between satire and smugness, and where Idiocracy walks that tightrope. Is the film's central conceit plausible… or offensively oversimplified? With the film's conceit being that everyone is stupid, are we allowed to get frustrated with the tone for being too stupid? Why Terry Crews as President Camacho might be the most pitch-perfect casting choice in a dystopian comedy ever. What modern products or trends Idiocracy weirdly predicted (we're looking at you, reality TV and clickbait). And finally, whether Idiocracy is the Best Film Ever—or just the most important film people still haven't seen. Become a Patron of this podcast and support the BFE at https://www.patreon.com/BFE.

Vom Låden und vom Leben Nummer 34 - Drehbuch (...wie immer zum hören und mitlesen oder lesen und mithören, ganz wie ihr wollt) Vom Låden und vom Leben (audiofile #34: Drehbuch) Servus ihr Liem dord draußen, heud is amål widder mei Glosse drå. "Vom Lådn und vom Leben". Na ja, vom Lådn is meisdens ned so viel drin, was ich in derre Kadegorie zum såch hab. A diesmål würd ich des eher nei die annere Richdung neisordier. Leben ehm. Obwohls a Menge Bücher zum Deema gebb dud. Und ned nur des, sondern a Büchli und Comics, wo des im Diddel für du. Es gehd heud nämmlich um des Deema "Drehbuch". Und ja, da hab ich amål nei unnern Webschobb gelinsd und jede Menge Dreffer gfundn. An Manga vo Hayabusa "Liebe ohne Drehbuch", a boar Grimmis, wie zum Beischbiel "Drehbuch des Todes", a e echds Drehbuch zum Glassigger "Das schweigende Klassenzimmer" von Dietrich Garstka und gloar, jede Menge Sachbücher zur Deorie. Was ich awer verzähl will is a Kino Erlebnis, beziehungsweise a Nachkino-Erlebnis. Ich war mid a boar Leud im Kino. In Würzburch im Zenrdål. Un der Film wår selwer a a Buchumsedzung. Vonnem Buch, wu mir echd alle feiern dun, im Lådn. Des Büchle heisd "Mickey 7 - Der letzte Klon" und der Film "Mickey 17". Wahrdscheins, weil sich a grössere Zahl innem Film besser machd. Gibds middlerweile üwrichns a bei uns im Shobb. Awer zu der Zeid war der ewn noch im Kino. Und wie des hald bei so nen gesellichn Amnd mid Kinno und Freundn so is, simmer danach noch lusdich zammgehoggd und hamm Manöfergriddigg geübd. Ich war der ennziche, wo des Buch kennd had. Ja, ich hab a Freunde, wo ned so viel nein Lådn gehn du und annere Gewohnheidn hamm wie ich. Awer genau des find ich ofd dodål inderessand. Mir alle fandn den Film echd gelungen. Die annern wolldn dann deilweise gleich des Büchle käff und ich fands echd a saugud, OBWOHL ich des Büchle kenn du. Und des is ja manchmal so a Sach. Awer um all des gehds goar ned. S gehd ummen Sadz, denn wo ich zur Diskussion beidråchn hab. Mir war als ennzicher Gridiggbungd die Schdaadsführung, also sozumsach die Regierung a glenns bissle zu üwerzochn sadierisch blöd dargeschdelld. Und ich mein so, dass des in der Oard und Weise wie der Film aufbaud is scho bassd, awer eichndlich durch des üwerzochn doofe fasd aweng unglaubwürdich war. Nacherd sachd enner vo meine Kumbels eefach blos "Drambb". Und ich so. "Verdammd". S is dann noch al lange, lusdiche Runde worrn. Mir ham zum Beischbiel a üwer den Schenkelglobfer-Kuldfilm "Idiocracy" vo 2006 geredd. Damals hamm mir uns verreggd glachd, awer gleichzeidich a gmennd, dass des alles hald ausschlieslich in so ennen Glamaugfilm neibass dud. Heud bin ich mir da nimmer so sicher. Und da sach ich edz eefach blos "Drambb". Ja und in soanne Richdung is nacherd des Gschbräch a abgedrifded und ein Schlachwordd had sich seiddem bei uns durchgesedzd und wird immer wieder zidierd. "Wenn ich des innem Drehbuch vorgsedzd griech würd - und selber a Reschissör wär, nacherd würd ich des gladdwegg ablehn. Unglaubwürdich!" Tja un edz simmer bein echdn Deema. Weil wenn ich den kombledd unglaubwürdichn Mistkack, wo seid dem Amdsandridd von dem "Drambb" gschenn is und gschied, in a Drehbuch neischreib würd und des in der Zeid zurüggschick würd. Von mir aus blos kurz, a boar Jährli, nacherd würd kenner so a Drehbuch käff. Also es sei denn als bodenzielln zwäddn Deil von "Idiocracy" vielleichd. Bei vieln Bloggbasdern aus den ledzden Jahrzehndn hab ich gsåchd, was füra scheiss Drehbuch. Wenn die mir a boar Dollar gebb würd, nacherd würd ich denn gern was bessers schreib. Dass des, was edz in unnerer Realidäd schdattfind dud, neddamål füren Schlefaz reich würd, is derård unglaublich, dass mir eefach blos die Wordde fehln. Erinnerts ihr euch noch an "Zurück in die Zukunft"? Da wird der Mardi dreisich Joar in der Vergangenheid gfråchd, wer Bräsidend sei. Und der muss nacherd die Andword gebb, Ronald Reagan. Was zu dem Brüller führd: "Was der Schauspieler?".
Good morning, afternoon, and evening! Get your fireworks out and prepare to lose some fingers because it's almost Independence Day! What better way is there to celebrate the nation's birthday than by watching the movie that reportedly predicted the country's future? (Besides spending time with family, grilling, fireworks, hot dog eating contests...) But how accurate was this silly dystopian farce? Is there any depth to it? And does the guy at Costco really love you? Tune in and find out! Also included: Berenstain/Berenstein, Nelson Mandela, and a desperate plea for a CostCo sponsorship.
A first time watch for all three of us, thanks to my sister and her Patreon pick! For a long time, people have told me how this move predicted the future and how this is the world we live in today. I don't think it's that bad but it may not be far off! We talk a lot about comedians this week and joke stealing, Anita talks of her disdain of Alicia Keys and I make more references that date myself, even though my co-hosts are the same damn age! We hope you enjoy the show!

A Specialist on Iran Who Recently Met With Iranian Foreign Ministry Officials and Nuclear Negotiators | The State Of the Iranian Opposition as Trump Muses About Regime Change | The MAGA and Project 2025 Plan to Dumb Down America to Become an Idiocracy in Service of a Plutocracy backgroundbriefing.org/donate twitter.com/ianmastersmedia bsky.app/profile/ianmastersmedia.bsky.social facebook.com/ianmastersmedia
Chuck Todd begins by reflecting on the 10th anniversary of Trump descending his golden escalator and the profound impact he's had on both our politics and culture since. He argues that Trump has had the greatest impact of any president since FDR, why Trump's “fake it til you make it” persona appeals to voters and believes the negative impacts Trump has had on society will last for decades. He also highlights the anniversaries of the Watergate break-in and the OJ Simpson chase, and the lasting impacts those two events have had on American media.Then, Chuck is joined by journalist and staff writer for The Atlantic, Mark Leibovich, for a wide-ranging conversation that seamlessly weaves together sports, politics, and cultural commentary. The discussion begins with Leibovich's criticism of Howard Schultz's role in Seattle losing the Sonics, before diving into whether Obama should be more vocal during this political moment. Leibovich argues that Obama's presence might actually reinforce elitist stereotypes about Democrats and questions whether the former president is out of touch with today's electorate.The conversation takes fascinating detours through Beatles history (with Leibovich making the case that Ringo was the band's essential glue), speculation about whether Biden's debate performance was intentionally designed to showcase his decline, and pointed observations about Trump 2.0 being "almost beyond satire." Leibovich doesn't hold back on Trump's blatant corruption or Chuck's assessment that "Idiocracy was a documentary," while also analyzing the genuine nature of enthusiasm around Kamala Harris's campaign. The episode concludes with thoughts on baseball's pitch clock, the Red Sox's future, and advice for Democrats to meet voters where they are.Finally, Chuck answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment about discrepancies in polling and why poor campaign finance laws allow for the outsized influence of money in Virginia's gubernatorial race.Timeline:00:00 Introduction00:30 June 16th marks the 10th anniversary of Trump descending the escalator01:45 Trump's staying power isn't an accident02:30 Trump's impact has been greater than any modern president04:00 Trump's “fake it til you make it” strategy worked*05:45 Trump is comfortable being an outsider and disrespected07:00 Trump remade the Republican party in his image09:00 The poison he's injected is division and politicization11:00 The culture Trump built will shape politics for decades13:00 June 17th the anniversary of Watergate break in13:45 The biased liberal media narrative was manufactured by Nixon15:15 Republicans mistake press neutrality with antagonism 16:30 Service journalism has become rare18:15 June 17th also anniversary of OJ Simpson chase19:30 OJ chase/trial massively changed media23:00 CNN saw CourTV's ratings and changed strategy25:15 Before OJ, news networks didn't chase ratings29:00 Mark Leibovich joins the Chuck ToddCast! 32:30 Mark's homage to the Oklahoma City Thunder 33:45 Howard Schultz deserves the blame for Seattle losing the Sonics 35:00 Is there an NBA market that needs to be eliminated/moved? 37:30 Is it a mistake to brand teams to a state/region over a city? 39:30 Should Obama be speaking out more due to the vacuum of leadership? 41:30 Obama to blame for not grooming the next generation? 42:30 Obama favored Hillary Clinton more than Joe Biden 43:00 Obama didn't believe in identity politics 44:45 Can Obama lead by example at this moment? 46:15 Obama's presence reinforces elitist stereotypes about Democrats 48:45 If John Lennon had lived, would the Beatles have just been the Rolling Stones? 51:15 Ringo was the glue for the Beatles 53:30 Ringo is non judgemental and appeals to both sides 55:45 Ringo was a huge American football fan 58:00 Obama seems out of touch with the current electorate 59:15 Was the energy around Harris genuine enthusiasm, or just relief? 1:00:15 Biden probably loses 6-8 more states than Harris 1:02:30 Was the Biden debate intentional to showcase he wasn't up to it? 1:05:15 There was no cover up of Biden's decline, it was obvious 1:06:00 Will "Biden baggage" sink Pete Buttigieg or other Biden alum? 1:08:00 Trump 2.0 is almost beyond satire 1:09:00 Idiocracy was a documentary 1:10:15 Why is there no mass outrage over Trump's blatant corruption? 1:13:00 What traits will the next Democratic president have post-Trump? 1:14:00 Trump's skill set isn't transferable within the Republican party 1:15:45 Trump is the definition of "Fake it til you make it" 1:19:00 Trump weaponized the NFL in the culture war 1:21:00 The pitch clock has been great for baseball 1:22:30 Thoughts on the Devers trade 1:25:00 Are the Red Sox for sale? 1:26:00 Democrats need to meet voters where they are 1:26:45 You can't write off Gavin Newsom1:28:00 Chuck's thoughts on the interview with Mark Leibovich 1:28:30 Ask Chuck 1:28:45 How can two respected polling companies have very different results? 1:35:00 Outside money flooding the Virginia gubernatorial race?

From AI chatbots with too much personality to dystopias where “reality” is a broadcasted spectacle, it's a soup of sci-fi predictions that hit way too close to home.Whether it's Mission Impossible's rogue AI, the gentle (and totally not creepy) vibes of Her, or the calculating logic of Colossus: The Forbin Project, we're diving into how film and TV imagined our now—and nailed it a little too well.Timestamps:00:00 – Cold Open: No outline, no problem03:00 – Lilo & Stitch live-action and Ohana culture06:00 – Recommendations: Duster and Murderbot 12:00 – Future Present: Predictions that came true (or too close)22:00 – Wealth gaps, dystopia staples, and why Idiocracy is a documentary33:00 – AI companions and their… emotional side44:00 – So.

This podcast has electrolytes, which is what plants crave. It also has a discussion of "Idiocracy," which is what we are living in when the politicians you don't like are in power. I don't know, everything is kind of a bummer and we all hate each other, but so what?

We have now seen Donald Trump through the first 100 days of his second term and what we have witnessed has been a horrifying attack on our constitutional democracy. It is sad to have to admit that the clowns are now running the circus but what is more frightening is that our nation may not survive the Trump administration with either our constitution or our democracy intact. We cannot just avoid talking about politics and hope that everything will be ok. We are in danger and there are no hoofbeats of a coming cavalry coming to save us. We will either unite and save ourselves or we will not be saved.

Moynihan is out with a “tooth thing” (which sounds lame, but is allegedly a “painful,” “very serious” dental emergency that definitely doesn't involve a tall, attractive blonde woman). Fortunately, our pal Jesse Singal (Blocked and Reported, Singal-Minded) is along for the ride, and outlines the plans for his heroic crusade to save THE REPUBLIC by beefing with JD Vance on X. We dive into Trump 2.0's extra-constitutional improvisations, fail to steer clear of trade policy, and search desperately for a silver lining in our late-capitalist, national-populist, increasingly surrealist Idiocracy. Also in the mix: a little Elon drama, libertarian coping strategies, various flavors of executive branch lawlessness, and a surprising outbreak of informed optimism about the future.* Tooth decay, high-end prostitutes, and podcast logistics* Jesse Singal enters the chat (possibly still mid–Twitter beef)* Deportation by executive vibe* Due process is for losers* When JD Met Jesse: A Very Sexy Love Story (by Selena Montgomery)* The most important internet slap-fight in American history* Hotel El Salvador: now accepting unwanted Americans* Bannon's “flood the zone” plan meets sheer incompetence* Shouting at Bill Hemmer* Campus protests, free speech, and DHS interns with tasers* Jesse accidentally agrees with libertarians?* And can Jesse say one nice thing about JD Vance? (And, “Thank you”!?)* To the Moon, and Mars, and WHERE ELSE BEYOND This is a public episode.

Sometimes you just need a good diversion to distract you from the dumpster fire that is modern life and few things can immediately take you on the emotional rollercoaster like a good satirical dystopian narrative so I've got first time guest Alice Darrow on with me today to help me break down what is the surprise comic book of 2025 for me, Tramps of the Apocalypse. Sitting somewhere between Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and Idiocracy, this is a hilarious dressing down of the modern manosphere through the lens of three damsels causing much distress in 2094 in a world ruled by Quest Ragnor, King Of Males as terrible dudes seek to do what terrible dudes would do in a scenario such as this. Do yourself a favor and make sure to put it on your radar. Tramps of the Apocalypse from Dark Horse Comics From the publisher The year is 2094, and men rule the world. So what has changed in seventy years, you ask? Following the ten-year Sildenafil wars of 2053, Earth has become a barren wasteland. Factions of surviving men led by “Quest Ragnor, King of Males” have taken over the remnants of cities and towns across the globe, capturing and enslaving all women…Well, all women except for three super bimbos with unparalleled bloodlust and an unquenchable thirst for violence: Baby, Belladonna, and Babette. Unwilling to bend to the whims and desires of the buffoons in charge, too slippery to be caught, and too sexy for chains, these three bangin' babes are at the top of Quest Ragnor's most wanted list. Unfortunately for him, they couldn't care less. PATREON We have a new Patreon, CryptidCreatorCornerpod. If you like what we do, please consider supporting us. We got two simple tiers, $1 and $3.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comMehdi was in New York this past week, and he was joined in the studio for a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation by none other than Molly Jong-Fast, acclaimed author, host of the ‘Fast Politics' podcast, and a special correspondent for Vanity Fair.You might find this to be a cathartic conversation as Mehdi and Molly unleash on the idiocy of the Trump tariffs - and the Trump administration in general.“We are governed by morons,” says Mehdi, “and we are in an episode of ‘Idiocracy.'”“I feel that the thing that got us the most furious was the stupid, right?” responds Molly. “I mean, I'm offended by the racism, I'm offended by the xenophobia, but the thing that keeps me up at night is the moronics. Like, none of this works, right? The math on this does not work.”The two of them also address the deficiencies in the modern, cautious, elderly Democratic Party. “The fundamental problem with Democrats, and this is not all of them, but with the older generation, is they can't get online,” argues Molly. “They can't do a Substack.”She believes the next Democratic presidential candidate has to be a master of messaging and has to be “someone who is gonna go out and do every interview and every podcast.”If you're a paid subscriber, please do watch the full 20-minute conversation above to hear Mehdi and Molly Jong-Fast's fun and passionate political discussion, in which they also tackle the failures of the mainstream media and Molly gives her prediction as to which Trump sycophant in his current cabinet will be fired soon and then write a tell-all book.

Dumbing Down the Future - Mike Judge's Idiocracy This is an especially fun one! This week Mr. Chavez & I take a trip into a very funny, very frightening, and very likely future. In 2006 20th Century Fox released Mike Judge's Idiocracy in a manner that almost guaranteed that no one would ever see it. . . . but the film would survive. Judge's bleak and pessiimistic vision of the future - the year 2505 - would find a cult audience that would embrace its hilarious prediction of a Professional Wrestler President, warehouse stores as a kind of Mecca, Fast-Food Restaurants as cheap, disgusting food and sex providers, and a population of such minimal intelligence that an "Average Joe" cryogenically frozen and awoken in the future would find himself the "Smartest Man on Earth". Judge spares no targets and we are grateful for the ride Idiocracy takes its viewers on. There's a whole lot to unpack here. Great Satire is usually ahead of its time and that is surely the case with this film. Judge would later joke, "I'm no prophet, I was off by 490 years." Sadly, he was right. Take a listen and let us know if you agree. As always, we can be reached at gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many Thanks.

Wabi Sabi - The Perfectly Imperfect Podcast with Candice Kumai
In this episode, I'll share how to navigate the next four years with peace and resilience. We'll explore the beauty of Japanese homes and how they inspire creating more space—both physically and mentally—in our lives. I'll talk about why it's essential to stop paying attention to the chaos of "Idiocracy" and focus on what truly matters. Learn the power of giving yourself more time, making self-care a priority, and investing in your well-being. I'll discuss the importance of setting boundaries and how they help create a peaceful, balanced life. Meditation and deep breathing are key tools for creating space, managing stress and staying grounded—I'll guide you through these practices. Remember to stay in your own lane—you don't need to do what others are doing, and that's perfectly okay. Finally, I'll remind you to stay curious and kind, no matter how others may behave around you. Let's dive in and create more peace and resilience together xx thank you for listening xx Candice
