Why do AI's fabricated memories "feel" so true?Hotel Bar Sessions is currently between seasons and while our co-hosts are hard at work researching and recording next season's episodes, we don't want to leave our listeners without content! So, as we have in the past, we've given each co-host the opportunity to record a "Minibar" episode-- think of it as a shorter version of our regular conversations, only this time the co-host is stuck inside their hotel room with whatever is left in the minibar... and you are their only conversant!AI engineers and designers are currently, and rightly, focused on minimizing the deleterious effects of AI's three primary "memory problems"-- hallucinations, catastrophic forgetting, and bias-- but in this Minibar episode, HBS co-host Leigh M. Johnson argues that none of these problems can be design-engineered away. They are, according to Johnson, baked-in and unavoidable structural elements of any language-based system reliant on an archive.Borrowing from Jacques Derrida's work on archives, language, and memory, Johnson argues that we should think more seriously about the manner in which LLM's outputs come to us cloaked in the garb of memory. We take AI hallucinations, for example, to be true because they inspire in us a feeling of nostalgia... something that we could have remembered, perhaps even should have remembered, but didn't.Or didn't we?Tune in for the first episode of Season 15 on January 23, 2026!Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/minibar-algorithmic-noslagia---------------------SUBSCRIBE to the podcast now to automatically download new episodes!SUPPORT Hotel Bar Sessions podcast on Patreon here!

(Bob was on the bike!). The pain, the trauma, the rehab-- and the friendships that showed up along the way to help manage it all-- turned out to be an unexpected lesson in not only what able-bodied people naively assume about their world, but also what  insights can be gleaned from the sudden interruption of those naive assumptions.Turns out, according to Bob, there's a lot more that's funny about our finitude than is immediately obvious in our pain!Tune in for the first episode of Season 15 on January 23, 2026!Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/minibar-pain---------------------SUBSCRIBE to the podcast now to automatically download new episodes!SUPPORT Hotel Bar Sessions podcast on Patreon here!

We'll be playing brand new music from about a dozen KC area musicians and bands. So much new music is coming out, we're excited to share as much as we can during the show!Several of the acts on this week's show have upcoming gigs:• St. George & The Dragons, April 23 at Knuckleheads with David Luther• Bobcat Attack, April 23 at miniBar with Minka, FACEFACE, and Lake Love• OLIVIA FOX, April 30 on The Rooftop of Crossroads Hotel, along with DJ and EJ (David & EvanJohn)• Kemet Coleman, King Kemet album release show on April 25 at The Ship with DJ SKEME, DJ Maxx Gruv, and Emily Moore• The Soul Activators, May 17 at Lemonade Park with Carlton Rashad and the Guys• Radkey, May 24 at Lemonade Park for Radfest 3: with Frogpond, The Creepy Jingles, and GASCANWe'll also hear music from these musicians who have been busy in the studio, PURE XTC, Honeybee, Kuribroh, Kangaroo Knife Fight, and TaRon Graham.

We welcome into our studio one of my favorite humans, Steve Tulipana. For years on our show, we have asked our guests “What KC musician has heavily impacted you?” and the TOP answer is Steve Tulipana.Tune in at 6PM and we'll talk about the upcoming Season to Risk tour, play a new S2R song, and talk about their Record Store Day release. We'll talk about the movie, Sounds Of The City, which Steve was just featured in. Steve (and his amazing teams) run three venues in Kansas City - recordBar, miniBar, and Lemonade Park which will open for its 6th season next month. We'll run through the Lemonade Park calendar and hear music from some acts on its lineup, including The String & Return, Company Retreat, Keo&Them, The Soul Activators, Brother Moses, and maybe more.In addition to Season To Risk having a KC tour stop on the books, April 23 at recordBar, many of Steve's other bands have upcoming gigs, we'll talk about those gigs and hear music from some of them:• 04/20/25 Dan Jones and The Squids with mssv, Mike Bagetta & Stephen Hodges, and Mike Watt at recordBar• 05/13/25 Roman Numerals with Gang Of Four at Knuckleheads Kansas• 05/16/25 MEN of MEN (Take On Bowie) at The Ship• 06/05/25 Drop A Grand with Peelander-Z at recordBarTune in at 6PM on Tuesday for a great conversation about KC music and for a great selection of music. It should be a good one.

We'll dive into a stack of new releases from KC bands and musicians.Kicking off the show, we'll debut the brand new single from Hembree, “Don't Look Down” - then catch them on Saturday at Warehouse On Broadway with Post Sex Nachos and Paris Williams.Then we'll hear music from Me Like Bees (at The Bottleneck on 4/12), Danielle Ate the Sandwich, Honeybee, David Luther (at Lucia on 4/18), IVORY BLUE, Car Microwave (at miniBar on 5/2), Mad Joy, and Angie Fights Crime.We'll also hear Kansas City's Theme for The FIFA World Cup from Tech N9ne (at Boulevardia on 6/14). In case you missed it, The World Cup is happening in June/July 2026 and KC is one of 16 host cities. Each city was given a base track to use, dress up, and make their own.Did you know Kansas City is the smallest of the 16 host cities in North America? With that, what city's World Cup Theme do you think has the most spins on Spotify? We'll talk about it on the show today at 6PM.We'll wrap up the show with a (politely) persistent musician from Des Moines, Dan Tedesco. He's emailed me six times and asked us to check out his music, we'll share one of his songs, and if you like what you hear you can catch him at Knuckleheads this Saturday.
