This episode began with Daniel giving his weekly running update, focusing on the RunDisney Springtime Surprise weekend where he was preparing for the 10-miler, while his partner Zach had already run the 5K and was set for the 10K. A significant portion was dedicated to discussing the new Disney-themed running shoes released by Brooks, Daniel's disappointment that his preferred shoe model wasn't included, and his use of AI to design his own Pluto-themed version. Adam then shared a detailed and frustrating account of his multi-day saga trying to resolve major home internet and Wi-Fi issues, which involved failed troubleshooting, replacing hardware multiple times (Orbi, Netgear Nighthawk, finally settling on TP-Link), and dealing with customer service and a technician visit.   The hosts also touched upon various AI tools like Mindstudio.ai and N8N, and Adam received an "assignment" to watch a Microsoft Co-pilot presentation. The "Contact" segment involved finishing listener questions for Daniel from his birthday the previous week, covering topics like running habits, shoe replacement, and travel. They played new voicemails, notably discussing the passing of fellow podcaster Rambler Redhead and the importance of archiving old shows, alongside a listener's amusingly hazardous teenage experience with poppers. The "News Quiz" followed its usual format with trivia on business, economics, and weather, and the episode concluded with Adam recounting a negative interaction on the social media platform Blue Sky and Daniel offering moderation advice.
