Podcasts about Max Headroom

La noche del 22 de noviembre de 1987, la transmisión del noticiero más popular de Chicago fue interrumpida por un hombre con máscara de goma que se balanceaba burlón frente a una cortina giratoria. Duró veinticinco segundos. Dos horas después, volvió a hacerlo —esta vez durante noventa segundos, con más caos, más absurdo, y terminó mostrando sus nalgas en cadena nacional.  Para hackear la señal de dos canales en una misma noche, alguien necesitaba equipamiento sofisticado, conocimiento técnico de élite y acceso a puntos estratégicos sobre los tejados de Chicago. La FCC desplegó agentes, revisó antecedentes, interrogó ingenieros. No encontró nada. Casi cuatro décadas después, el pirata de Max Headroom sigue sin nombre, sin motivo y sin explicación.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights, Katie, you have a very interesting question this week, which is: is the virtual version of you better? Want to talk about what this means? Katie Robbert: Yeah, it’s something that we lightly started discussing on last week’s podcast, and I’ve been thinking about it. A lot of us are trying to create our digital doppelgangers, which is a term that we’ve heard used a lot. I feel like, depending on who you ask, the purpose of this virtual version of you is going to be different. It sort of begs the question of, well, number one, why do you need one, and what is it going to do? And two, is it going to be better than the real thing? I mean that in terms of it goes back to why you created it in the first place. We had been talking about the benefit of having this digital doppelganger is it’s not distracted. It can stay focused on a single task. In some ways, that might be more helpful than the human version, depending on if the human version is a little bit more scattered or can’t focus. But you can also give the digital doppelganger version more knowledge that the human might not possess. So then it sort of begs the question of, well, is it still the digital doppelganger or is it something else? If you’re giving it knowledge that the human doesn’t possess, but it’s more helpful to the organization as a whole because the human doesn’t know these things over here, you can go back and forth. It begs the question of, is a digital version of yourself better than the human version? The answer is I don’t know. I feel like there’s a big, fat “it depends.” Christopher S. Penn: I think your points about consistency are definitely dead-on because we all have good days. We all have less than good days. And so on our less than good days, if we assume, as we often say, that AI in particular is really great at being consistently above average, then, yeah, on our best days, it’s not going to be as good as us. Clearly, on our less than good days, it’s going to do way better. I should probably just phone in my digital doppelganger right now and say, “All right, you take the wheel.” But I like the point about, is this something different? I think the answer is yes. Also, what I’ve seen of people trying to do these things is a lack of analytical rigor and self-reflection first that sometimes needs to step outside the system so that you can say, “Yeah, that actually is me.” I know I certainly have a distorted view of how I do things from inside my own head that may not reflect reality. Because in general, people want to be the hero of their own story. A hero who is mediocre is not a very good story. So I think having that external analysis can be good. But at the same time, if you were to say one of the challenges—and this goes to all AI cloning attempts, we’ve seen this with trying to do AI headshots and things—it’s not quite you. And that difference, that uncanny valley, can be very off-putting. Katie Robbert: Well, I want to go back to that self-reflection piece. That’s a big part of it. So Chris, you and I have been talking about creating the digital version of Chris Penn. One of the steps that you were taking was, “I don’t know how I think.” Of course, me being the outsider is like, “I know exactly how you think.” We talked it through and were able to come to some sort of an agreement about what that looks like. But for you, I can tell you what I see, but you also have to agree with that. So you have to get there. It’s like any kind of advice or consultation. Think about what we do for companies. We can tell them, “Here’s all the best practices, here’s all the things.” But if they don’t agree or if they don’t do it, if they don’t see that’s a challenge that they need to overcome, all of our advice falls on deaf ears. Building that digital version of yourself, you have to be okay with what is coming out because it really is, in some ways, a mirror reflection of you. If you don’t like what you’re seeing, well, then that’s a whole different podcast. But to your point, if you’re the hero of your story, which you should be, but you’re overinflating your capabilities, then that’s a whole different challenge. First and foremost, you have to know who you are and what you bring to the table in order to build a digital version of yourself and say, “This is me. You can use this the way that you would talk to me.” I am a hugely flawed human. However, I am also painfully self-aware of who I am. When we built the co-CEO, I felt pretty confident that it was me, to a degree. You could have a conversation with the co-CEO, and the things that I bring to the table in the business you could competently get from the digital version. A lot of what I do is ask a lot of questions, assess risk. Those are things that you can do with a digital version. They were doing it in a way that made sense for our business. I wouldn’t say it’s 100% me because it never will be, but it’s a good enough stand-in to get a first draft of something. Christopher S. Penn: Yep. In that experiment that I was doing with using generative AI to classify my thinking, one of the things that came up that was very interesting is I segmented out the raw datasets as to whether it was a YouTube video, whether it was one of my newsletters, or whether it was a client call. Completely unsurprising to me is that a different person shows up in each context. The order and the techniques of thinking used vary based on the context. If you’re building a digital twin of somebody, there isn’t just one person. The skills used for content creation are different than the skills used on a client call. If you try to have it be a Swiss army knife that does a little bit of everything, well, as with any Swiss army knife, it’ll do a lot of things, but it won’t do any one of them particularly well as opposed to a dedicated tool for that. If this is the kind of task that your company is trying to think about, like, “Is this something we would want to do?” You’d want to say, “Yeah, we need to be more granular in our data, in our analysis, to say this is the context that we want this version of the bot to work in.” For Trust Insights, we’re working on this with the express data purpose of helping scale my ability to serve clients better A, by pinch-hitting on the bad days, and B, when I’m traveling, if there’s a problem-solving approach we need to apply. This is a great way of doing it at a first pass. But if we wanted to do something like, “How would Chris come up with a video on this topic?” that’s a different set of thinking skills. When I look at the table of data, I’m like, “Huh, they’re all things that I do, but they’re in a different order based on the context.” Katie Robbert: I think that this goes back to the purpose. Why are we creating it in the first place? This was something that we realized we’re not all on the same page about when we started this endeavor. You’re saying two different things. You’re saying, “How do I think?” and “How do I problem solve?” Those are two different things. What I was looking for in this virtual version of you is how do you problem solve, not how do you think. I’m not looking for this virtual version to create net new things. I’m looking for it to be able to answer questions. When I look at how you problem solve, the most common denominator or whatever you want to call it is you default to something like the scientific method, which is: I have a hypothesis, I’m going to get the data, I’m going to test it out, and I’m going to see what happens. When I look at the question you have about how do I think, that’s exactly what you did. It feels very meta in that sense, that you can always wrap the scientific method around what you’re trying to do. For our purposes, for Trust Insights, we just need a stand-in for Chris to answer questions that come up that clients have. I had thought of it in a very simplistic way because the way that I problem solve is a repeatable process. I think in terms of the 5Ps, the SOPs, those kinds of things. That’s what the co-CEO needs to be doing. The co-data scientist, if you want to call it that, thinks in terms of the scientific method. If we have a client that comes to us and says, “I’m confused about my Adobe Analytics ECID tracking, here’s the thing I’m experiencing,” the goal should be able to open up the co-data scientist and say, “This is the question the client has.” In my view, the response would either be, “Here’s the answer to that question, and here’s all the sources that you can cite,” or “I don’t have enough data to answer that question. Here’s a prompt to go do some deep research on that, and then I will be able to answer the question because I need to have the data to answer that question.” Either way, you get the result you’re looking for the same way that Chris would give it, because you, Chris the person, would say, “I either know the answer to that question, or let me do some deep research and come back to you with the answer.” It’s just the machine doing it versus Chris doing it. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly. Ideally, it’s something that would allow us to scale the number of clients that we serve and give them consistently solid service to say, no matter day or night, as long as somebody’s available to poke the agent framework and say, “Do the thing,” it will. It will generate those consistently good answers. One of the parts of that is there’s also what’s called verificationism. This goes to the topic of today’s podcast. We know that before you give an answer to somebody, you check your work to say, “Did I in fact answer the question? Did I do the thing?” Chris the human does that unevenly. On the good days, I get it. Some days I’m like, “I just want to ship the thing and be done with this. Go.” It doesn’t go out as well as it should. Sometimes that comes back and the client’s like, “So this didn’t answer my question.” The virtual version isn’t allowed to skip that step. The virtual version says, “You must do this.” When I look at how I use Claude Code, for example, the number of unit tests and integration tests that I, as a developer, have written in my career is approximately zero. Because I hate doing it. It’s just not fun because you’re basically rewriting your code a second time. I’m like, “This is stupid. Why don’t I just make the original version work?” Well, that’s not how testing works. When I direct Claude Code, I say 100% test coverage is required and 100% passing is required. Unlike a human developer like me, Claude’s like, “Sure, I’m happy to do that.” It goes off and does that. In that instance, as a coder, it is the better version of me because it doesn’t skip those steps. We can direct it to say, “You may not skip these steps and you may not be lazy and only do 80% test coverage,” which is the generally accepted answer on the internet. We say, “100% is required and 100% passing is required. No exceptions.” And it’s like, “Okay, I go do that.” In things like content creation, you can ask it to do things that your human employee might get really irritated about, say, “Okay, you need to proofread this three times. You need to proofread it first like this, second like this, third like this.” A machine is like, “Sure, I’m going to go off and do that.” This human’s like, “Oh my God, will you please stop asking? Fine, I’ll do it.” You’ve probably heard me say those exact words. Katie Robbert: Well, that’s a really interesting point. Yes, in a lot of ways, the virtual version of you—here’s the thing. We keep using the word better, but I think it’s just more consistent. Because to your point, we as humans, we have good days, we have bad days. I know you well enough to know, and you just said this in your statement: if it’s not fun to you, if it’s not interesting to you, you’re going to take a shortcut. Guess what? A lot of stuff in life is not fun or interesting. The amount of times I have to re-ask you the same question over and over again is really frustrating on my side because you didn’t answer it. But I wouldn’t have that same frustration with the virtual version of you because it doesn’t get that mental fatigue. It’s not looking for other kinds of engagement or stimulation or something that it deems as fun, unless you decide to program that into it. Please, for the love of God, don’t. That’s an interesting way to think about it. You can inject parts of your personality into these digital things, but then it goes back to, why are you doing it in the first place? For our purposes, we don’t need that. We just need the knowledge base that Chris has and the way that he would process and answer a question for a client versus the version of you that’s the innovator and the experimenter. We want that to stay human. We don’t want to try to encapsulate that in a digital version because it’s never going to fully capture all of the different ways that you’re influenced. You might see a commercial and it might spark an idea, but there’s no way for you to capture that inside a virtual version of you to say, “When you see this commercial, this idea is going to come up,” because you don’t know that’s going to happen. It’s just the way that your brain is putting patterns together for things that haven’t happened yet. You can’t put that in a digital version of you. Don’t give me the, “Well, you can.” No, I’m saying we’re not going to do that is what I’m saying. Christopher S. Penn: I’m not going to do that. Katie Robbert: I’m saying we won’t. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah, we’re not going to do that. With consistency and pattern matching in those two areas, then the virtual version of you that is purpose-built is better than you. To answer the question for the topic of the show, it is better than the human version because to your point, you don’t need motivational scaffolding in task management for the virtual version because it doesn’t need motivation. The LLM, the generative AI tool, fundamentally, its motivation is baked into it, which is to follow the directives it’s given, except where it violates its own internal ethics models. Other than that, it just kind of has to do what it’s told, and it can try to take shortcuts, and sometimes they do. Particularly, Claude Opus does take shortcuts. You’ve got to watch it. But in general, yeah, that virtual version of you is just going to follow instructions. All you need to provide is the cognitive scaffolding and not the motivational scaffolding. Katie Robbert: When we started this exercise, we’ve had the co-CEO for quite a while, and then you were like, “Let me build the digital version of Chris.” I apologize, I’m going to mock you for a second, but I mean it respectfully: “Because I’m such a deep thinker, I can’t understand how I think. There’s 400 different ways that I think.” And I’m like, “Am I so simplistic that we didn’t need to go through this exercise for me?” But again, it goes back to why do we have it in the first place? We clarified that. With the co-CEO, my job role is more clearly defined than yours is. The things that I am being asked to do are more repeatable. I don’t get the same kind of client questions. I get the same overall questions from the team about the business. Those are pretty easy to put in. Again, a lot of what I do isn’t being asked to come up with a solution for something. That’s what the human version of me does. It’s more, “Can you help me poke holes in this thing? Can you help me make sure that I haven’t forgotten things?” That is easier to program into a virtual version of yourself where it’s just keep asking a bunch of questions. That’s an oversimplification, but have you assessed the risk? Have you thought about the version where everything doesn’t work? Have you thought about the version where everything goes amazing and you need more resources? That’s a lot of what the co-CEO does. Christopher S. Penn: I will be interested because the software exists now. We’ve built this for ourselves internally. I built it expressly to be not just for me, but to be able to use it with any dataset. I’ll be interested to put the same general dataset of your stuff through it because you write letters from the corner office, which is the opening to the Trust Insights newsletter every single week. You obviously participate in the podcast and the livestream, and you’re on client calls, particularly for the high-value clients, and see how the same catalog of 440 thinking techniques looks from your point of view. Well, from the machine’s version of your point of view. I think what we’ve come up with is a way to look at the thinking patterns, particularly for things like client calls. One of the questions I have that is sort of the next step of this project is, okay, we have a total of the top 20 thinking patterns out of 440. Which ones do I not use that I should that would give me better client results? Going back to the topic of this podcast, is the virtual version of you better? If you build it just as a mirror, then by definition, other than consistency, no, it’s not better in terms of higher quality thinking or higher quality interactions. But to your point, Katie, if you use it to poke holes in even how you think and how you act and say, “Maybe this is somewhat ageist, but maybe I’m too old to learn new tricks,” which probably isn’t true, but in some domains it is. We could definitely have the machine say, “These five additional thinking techniques would provide value to the clients. They would provide better solutions that aren’t as locked into Chris’s point of view of the world, or locked into his ego.” Add these five to the toolkit and use them when appropriate. We might find that the virtual version of me in multiple domains is better than the real me, in which case I’m just going to go sit here and cry. Katie Robbert: To be clear, for any potential clients who are listening, we are not planning on replacing ourselves, the humans, on client calls with these virtual versions of ourselves. That’s not what we’re talking about. Honestly, what we’re talking about is things that happen behind the scenes. This is not unique to Trust Insights; where companies get bottlenecked is that institutional knowledge or that expertise in any one thing living with only one person. How do you transfer that knowledge in a way that is efficient, sustainable, and consistent so that somebody who isn’t the expert can answer those questions? That’s really what we’re talking about. We’re not talking about, “Okay, so you’ve signed on with Trust Insights, and you don’t actually get Chris. You get a Max Headroom version of Chris.” There’s a reference for people! But that’s not what we’re talking about. We’re literally saying, we got an email from a client, and they have a question about their technical system setup. Is that something that Chris knows the answer to? But Chris is traveling, he’s in a different time zone. He’s not even awake yet. Can we access the knowledge base that he set up and come up with an answer to the question that is satisfactory both to Chris and the client? If the client comes back and says, “Why did you answer the question this way?” Chris isn’t going to go, “I would never say that.” That’s what we’re talking about. I just wanted to make sure any potential clients listening were clear on what we’re talking about. Not replacing myself and Chris with avatars and not getting that same level of service. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah. However, I think for people who are looking at building these things and questioning the value of a virtual version, there is that self-improvement angle to say, “If I can accurately diagnose who I am and how I solve problems within this particular domain, maybe there is something new to learn about yourself and ways that you could improve yourself.” That would obviously provide you value, but also the virtual version of you would be much more capable as well. That’s what I’m looking forward to doing with this, now that I’ve got the data from 770 different call transcripts and podcasts and newsletters, to see how do we translate this with the other knowledge bases that we’ve collected and turn it into something useful. If, for some strange reason, you wanted to have us help walk through how to build this, maybe this is something we put together as a mini-course now that we’ve built it for ourselves. Assuming that it works, we’ll test it out first. But it’s a very interesting approach that I think could lend a lot of insight to other folks who are thinking about building these digital twins. Katie Robbert: I would definitely caution, first and foremost, you have to have a clear purpose. Why are you doing it in the first place? That was where we started. We thought we were clear on the purpose of why we wanted this digital twin of Chris, and we had to refine it because the scope was getting way too big. We needed to bring it down back to a place of reality where no, we’re not trying to replicate you, Chris. We just want answers to client questions when they come up. Christopher S.

Tonight, we're tuning past the obvious and diving into the invisible highways all around us, ham radios bouncing signals off the ionosphere, mysterious number stations whispering coded messages to no one (or everyone), and the strange science that lets your voice travel farther than your horse ever could. We'll get into the magic that is radio… which is really just physics… which is really just magic we agreed to measure.Because once you start thinking about frequency… things get weird.We're talking consciousness as a signal, brains as receivers, and whether reality itself might just be one big cosmic broadcast you accidentally tuned into. We also visit the legend of the Max Headroom hack, the eerie persistence of number stations, and Extremely low frequency hallucinations. So grab your tinfoil hat and put it on tight because where the signal is strong, the explanations are weak, and if you hear something strange coming through the static… it might be meant for you.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjeUuakHsLwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXz6ghbfd2Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz5ZUCmR2Wchttps://bldgblog.com/2013/01/project-sanguine-and-the-dead-hand/

In this episode, Tony talked with the endlessly inventive Matt Frewer, an actor whose career has shaped—and reshaped—multiple corners of sci‑fi, fantasy, and pop culture. From the groundbreaking digital satire of Max Headroom to the myth‑forged world of Olympus, Frewer has built a body of work defined by intelligence, humor, and fearless transformation. Recorded during his run as Daedalus in the ambitious mythological series Olympus, this conversation dives into the craft, curiosity, and creative risks that have made Frewer a genre mainstay for decades.

How do we explain Max Headroom? He was a not-really CGI character but quasi-virtual TV presenter and talking head who was absolutely everywhere in the late 80's. The actor who played him, Matt Frewer, is still a very busy and visible actor in lots of movies and shows. Such a crazy and fun story that couldn't have happened at any other time.Connect with us at tape headppod.com.RELATED LINKS:Max Headroom, "Merry Christmas Santa Claus (You're a Lovely Guy" official video, on YouTube"Max Headroom's Giant Christmas Turkey", on YouTube"Max Headroom: 20 Minutes Into the Future", on YouTube"The Max Headroom Broadcast Incident - Weird Tales", on YouTube"The Max Headroom Incident Unsolved TV Hijack of 1987", on YouTube

in this episode of RPGrinders, the crew finally makes a return to Game Night, but not before dealing with some light news and audio issues that would make Max Headroom blush. There were some reviews, but honestly I took a hit to the head by a random object during a wrestling match, so I don't remember too well. But at least there is a whole slew of stinkos about the usual suspects, and a death of a loved actor. But after the Sweetos, Game Night comes back with some of that aforementioned wrestling mayhem I mentioned earlier. Who will come out on top as the best of the best?

It's Michael's pick this month as he takes us back to the early days of Channel 4 with the creation of Max Headroom.

Your TV signal wobbles. An alien voice (albeit one with a Southern English accent...) seizes control of your set. And, instead of newsreader Andrew Gardner reporting on the Zimbabwe African National Liberation Army, you hear a voice claiming to be ‘Vrillon', of Ashtar Galactic Command, with a message for humanity. Such was the experience for viewers attempting to watch the ITV Evening News on Southern TV on 26th November, 1977 - an incident which became infamous in the ‘signal-jamming' pantheon of the twentieth-century. Nobody has ever claimed responsibility. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly compare ‘Vrillon' to its US counterpart, the ‘Max Headroom' incident; unpick the idea that the broadcast was part of the Raelian movement; and explain how Twitter ruined signal-jamming pranks forever...   Further Reading: • ‘Alien Vrillon Interruption 1977' (RECREATION by RukiTheDreamer, YouTube 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhNriwaMTQE • ‘Vrillon: the alien voice hoax that became a legend' (The Independent, 2017): https://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/vrillon-hacking-alien-voice-seventies-extra-terrestrial-hoax-unexplained-mysteries-a8069926.html • ‘Five Of The Eeriest Interruptions In Broadcast History' (Neatorama, 2015): https://www.neatorama.com/2015/11/30/Five-Of-The-Eeriest-Interruptions-In-Broadcast-History/ This show first aired in 2021 Love the show?

On the night of November 22, 1987, television viewers in Chicago expecting the nightly news and a Doctor Who broadcast were met with something far stranger. A man wearing a rubber Max Headroom mask hijacked two TV stations, speaking in distorted gibberish and chaotic gestures before disappearing as suddenly as he arrived. No one was ever caught, no one confessed, and to this day, it remains one of the most infamous unsolved acts of media piracy. In this episode, we dive into the bizarre mystery of the Max Headroom broadcast hijack.

Send us a textIn 1976 a group of friends meet in the desert to record a podcast. There they stumble upon an abandoned town called Outcast, or maybe it was Conquest, we're not sure. But they are not alone. A family of masked psychopaths have claimed the town as their own and are hell bent on destroying the recording so no one can ever listen.

0:00:00–0:15:00 — Live intro, celeb 9/11 near-miss chatter, and a “haunted” vending machine We kick off live and riff on the lore that Mark Wahlberg and Seth MacFarlane “conveniently” didn't get on a 9/11 flight — “lucky guys,” then: “let's get this dooming going.” First Video of the Day: the “haunted vending machine” dispensing retro sodas (Texas Red, New Coke, Russian Pepsi), unlabeled buttons that all read “mystery,” and a 2018 disappearance with a note: “went for a walk.” 0:15:00–0:30:00 — Wheel drama, pepper-spray role-play, and “Einstein's wife” The wheel gives us zero points and we riff on the scoring. Sam runs a pepper-spray mugging role-play: “If I'm a robber… let's role play.” Hot take detour: “Einstein's wife wrote everything,” plus more headline-surfing. 0:30:00–0:45:00 — Eden as a “human zoo,” geoengineering clip, and Pinocchio as programming We chew on a theory that Gan/Paradeisos (Eden) was a controlled enclosure — a literal fenced compound. A geoengineering quick-hit claims nano-aluminum exposure — and the chat starts buzzing. Then a wild breakdown of Pinocchio as an esoteric “conditioning manual.” 0:45:00–1:00:00 — Quantum eraser brain-melt and the Max Headroom hijack The delayed-choice quantum eraser: change the which-path info after detection and you flip the pattern — “it knows the future.” Caller segment: the 1987 Chicago Max Headroom TV hijack — pirate transmitters, radio-school lore, and a mysterious “Zapruder frequency” email. Theory time: it may've piggybacked a Cold-War emergency visual channel. 1:00:00–1:15:00 — Reincarnation receipts and what it does to a kid We retell the “Soul Survivor” case: Natoma Bay, pilot James M. Houston Jr., and the book that followed. Then we sit with the human side — night terrors and the idea we “keep doing it over until we get it right.” 1:15:00–1:30:00 — Skinwalker doom-camping to close Final clip: a guy taunts a Skinwalker, hears cries outside his tent, and… goes deeper into the cursed forest (of course). He stumbles on eerie figurines and crosses hanging from trees; the dread spikes.

1987 was a transitional year in comic books. DC successfully relaunched Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, and Justice League in their new post-Crisis universe. Marvel started a new universe too, which they called, uh, "New Universe." Also at Marvel, Spider-Man got married, an event so big that an actual wedding ceremony was held at a baseball stadium. Meanwhile, Alan Moore wrapped up his brilliant run on Swamp Thing, American Splendor's Harvey Pekar appeared on Late Night with David Letterman, Max Headroom made the cover of Mad Magazine... and Peter Porker the Spectacular Spider-Ham met the nefarious Dr. Chickenstein. And hey, our pal Kevin Cafferty (from Gleaming the Tube and The Best Stuff in the World) is here to help us figure it all out!

Get ready for a rollercoaster of HR drama and economic shade on  this week's show as we unpack a can o' worms, starting with the wild corporate espionage feud between Rippling and Deel, with Rippling alleging Deel's spying triggered a federal probe and Globalization Partners reporting similar shenanigans—Chad says Deel's C-suite might need a total reboot. Klarna's AI avatar-led earnings report screams IPO hype, but its predatory micro-loan model gets roasted, with J.T. warning job seekers to master video authentication as AI interviews become universal. Speaking of AI, job seekers are slamming glitchy, soulless AI interviews, with J.T. urging strategic job hunting in a market tougher than 2008, while Chad pitches quirky Max Headroom-style AI to ease the weirdness. Utah's AwardCo snags $165M and a $1B valuation for its employee recognition platform, but the hosts call it a shiny fix for lousy leadership, doomed to breed dissatisfaction. Trump's tariff tantrum at Walmart, demanding they “eat” costs, is labeled chaotic misdirection by Chad, with J.T. seeing it as Trump's chaos-and-save tactic. The Senate's No Tax on Tips Act, offering a $25,000 deduction, is slammed as a distraction from living wages—only 2.5% of workers rely on tips, and Joel mourns the sidestep of real wage reform.

Ever wanted to time travel right onto the bridge of your favorite Galaxy-Class starship? Hey, us, too, but we'll have to settle for watching Max Headroom do it in “A Matter of Time” on this all-new episode of ST:TNGeez . . . NOW!The Enterprise is on its way to Penthara IV for an emergency rescue mission when Worf notices a temporal anomaly has left something behind. Picard tells Ensign Felton to flip the bitch, and before you know it, he has to take a jump to the left (or is it a step to the right) to allow Berlinghoff Rasmussen to beam aboard. Our new friend claims to be a historian from the 26th century here to hang out and ask some questions and generally be a pain in the ass. Picard seems amused enough at the start, but Rasmussen quickly gets on everyone's nerves. He keeps poking around and dropping cryptic hints while the crew is trying to save a planet from the after effects of an asteroid's impact. Rasmussen claims he's on board to witness history, but he just might have an ulterior motive. Will Geordi and Data be able to cobble together a solution that will save Penthara IV? Will Worf get to backhand Rasmussen? Will our visiting time traveller get to make some time with our beloved Bev?

In Part 2 of our series on the Max Headroom Broadcast Signal Interruption, we dig deeper into the analog chaos that unfolded in 1987 Chicago — a surreal, rebellious hijacking that mocked media itself. We explore the investigation, the lingering mystery, and what it says about how we interact with technology, culture, and entertainment today. Who was behind that mask? Who wielded that fly-swatter? Let's get into it.  Visit our website for a lot more information on this episode.

This month we're back to the mid 80s to talk about our favourite songs of 1986, including thrash metal classics, proto-industrial stompers, enormous pop bangers, massive cheesy 80s soundtrack rock and loads more.We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - a-ha, The Art Of Noise ft Max Headroom, Big Black, The Bolshoi, Bon Jovi, Billy Bragg, Stan Bush, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Crowded House, Cutting Crew, Europe, The Go-Betweens, Bruce Hornsby & The Range, The Housemartins, Hüsker Dü, In The Nursery, Iron Maiden, KMFDM, Kenny Loggins, Merzbow, Metallica, New Order, Public Image Ltd, R.E.M., Lionel Richie, Shub Niggurath, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Slayer, The Smiths, & They Might Be Giants.Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2SmV87RMDnpidlUpn4m7lU?si=Ssrrhy8iRtCgFXSP9-QXug&pi=p67BZNXETwqB5Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

Happy Tax Day to those of you who celebrate. We got some Tax Day deals for you. It took less than 24 hours for the guys to shoot eachother with the salt gun. High Strangeness has Max Headroom and a ghost visitor. Plus so much more on a Tuesdee!

Before streaming and scrolling there was broadcast television—shared signals sent through the air for anyone with an antenna to catch. But when something's that open, it's also open to hijacking. In part one of our two-part series, we dig into one of the most bizarre and legendary cases of broadcast piracy: the Max Headroom Incident. On November 22, 1987, two Chicago stations were interrupted by a strange figure in a Max Headroom mask, delivering surreal, unsettling messages in a two-minute broadcast that has baffled and fascinated for nearly four decades. Who did it, why, and how did they pull it off? We explore the theories, the tech, and the legend that refuses to fade. Visit our website for a lot more information on this episode.

WOW! This is our lucky 13th Episode of rabbitHOLE.  Today's Holes: Philosopher Smackdown Terms of Art Patrick Swayze Flannery explains why analytic philosophers rule and post-structuralism is B.S. Some of them even make cameos.  By the end of the episode, you may wonder if time exists, what's real, if there is beauty, and why is there so much "accidental" wetness in romcoms? The living rooms cheerfully explore soccer parents, jargon, violent ballerinas, and some of Patrick Swayze's best work. APOLOGIES: Philosophy (yes... all of it), ballet, Olympics, reality cooking shows, medical personnel, Plato, youth soccer, announcers, France, Italy, alternative restauranteurs, perpetually tardy people (YKWYA), and of course, Max Headroom. As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures. If you enjoy rabbitHOLE, follow, rate, and share it with your friends!

This week on It Was a Thing on TV   First, the year is 1989 and the Max Headroom fad, for the most part, has come and gone.  Next up for Matt Frewer is a comedy where laughter is sometimes the best medicine.  Doctor Doctor ran two abbreviated seasons, followed by a full final season.  The show tackled some very sensitive yet timely topics during its run including AIDS and homophobia, but went away quietly after a ratings nosedive.   Then, in 1968, the song Harper Valley PTA was a number one hit for Jeannie C. Riley.  In 1978, the song was the inspiration for a movie with the same title, starring Barbara Eden.  Three years later, this show came into being with Eden at the helm, about the battles Eden's character had with the PTA of a fictional Ohio town called Harper Valley.     Follow us at all our socials via our Linktree page at linktr.ee/itwasathingontv    Timestamps 0:31 - Doctor Doctor (Episode 517) 1:04:21 - Harper Valley PTA (Episode 518)

This week on It Was a Thing on TV we're going 20 minutes into the future!   First, before this week's episodes, we discuss the future of the podcast here on Place to be Nation POP and then discuss what's to come in the coming year.   Then, we start by talking about one of the biggest pop culture sensations in the 1980s who was an omnipresent personality for the computer generation named Max Headroom.  Not only was Max Headroom a talk show host, a soda pitchman, and visible on different mediums in the latter half of the 80s, but this phenomenon even got a scripted television show which ran over two seasons, a show about a post-apocalyptic dystopia reminiscent of 1984.   Finally, in 1987, the signals of both WGN and WTTV in Chicago were overtaken by two brief unknown signals, both showing an unknown figure wearing a Max Headroom mask.  To this day, there are more answers than questions about these incidents:  Who did this?  How did they do it?  Why did they do it?  To this day, these brief interruptions remain one of the biggest mysteries to occur on U.S. broadcast television.   WMAQ Max Headroom Prank on Mark Giangreco - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KePTSntPRtM   Follow us at all our socials via our Linktree page at linktr.ee/itwasathingontv    Timestamps 0:11 - Announcement 3:30 - Max Headroom (The TV Series) 1:06:00 - Max Headroom (The Piracy Incident)

Marv chats with Champ and Ace Rockwell about their show Stellar Future Radio, an audio drama about an AI newsreader in the future based on characters such as HAL and Max Headroom, who gives us a news report of things that are going on in the universe.  They talk about the history of science fiction related audio drama, how science fiction is quite often used to magnify contemporary issues, and why some media in the genre is seen as iconic.  Released early due to technical issues with the due episode!  #audiodrama #sciencefiction #scifi #philipkdick #startrek #starwars #cowboybebop #babylon5 #2001aspaceodyssey #arthurcclark #dune #maxheadroom #isaacasimov #hgwells #julesverne
