This week on Ask, Tell, Confess, they kick things off with a fun question: Is there anything you use that has to be brand new every time? That leads to Jelly's ongoing battle with vanishing socks and a dive into their everyday quirks—like Bunnie never wearing the same outfit twice and her husband's obsession with a clean shirt daily. Then the vibes shift as they share eerie encounters, from a haunted Roomba to a fire alarm that goes off with no explanation. And for a wild twist—someone shares a late-night inhaler hit that unexpectedly turned into an accidental X-rated horror show.Watch Full Episodes & More:www.dumbblondeunrated.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when a passionate South Australian journalist takes on the biggest technological shift of our time? Steve Davis transforms episode 418 into something unprecedented: a solo deep dive into artificial intelligence that refuses easy answers or breathless enthusiasm. This special crossover episode opens with Steve’s restaurant analogy that frames the entire discussion. Imagine a magnificent chef who has perfected handmade hamburgers over many years, only to discover AI-equivalent shortcuts that promise more time to think deeply about cooking. The blind spot? Customers receive substandard offerings churned out en masse. Some will be disappointed and leave, others will accept the compromise. This tension between quality and efficiency sits at the heart of our AI moment. He is joined by his Talked About Marketing colleague, David Olney, for the main interview. The episode features an unusual SA Drink of the Week segment where Steve conducts a philosophical whisky tasting with ChatGPT itself, exploring 23rd Street Distillery’s award-winning Australian Single Malt Whiskey while pondering existential questions about consciousness, value, and what happens when AI no longer needs human experiences like taste.

Running Sheet: The AI Rant: A Nuanced Rebellion Against Digital Sleepwalking 00:00:00 Intro Introduction 00:05:52 SA Drink Of The Week Th SA Drink Of The Week is the Australian Single Malt Whisky by 23rd Street Distillery. In perhaps the most unusual SA Drink segment ever recorded, Steve shares a whisky tasting with ChatGPT, exploring both the physical experience of drinking 23rd Street Distillery’s Australian Single Malt Whisky and the philosophical implications of AI consciousness. The whisky itself proves worthy of celebration. Made with barley from Kangaroo Island, Steve describes experiencing “little breakers of waves on the shore” as “this little wave of toffee breaks across the middle of my palate, not overly sweet toffee.” The base notes spread into beautiful heat, with hints of vanilla and citrus “like sea spray, just a really light touch of citrus in the air.” VOK Beverages, headquartered in South Australia, owns 23rd Street Distillery, which recently earned the title Australian Whisky Distillery of the Year at the 2025 New York International Spirits Competition. ChatGPT acknowledges the significance: “It really highlights the quality and craftsmanship of the distillery, and also shines light on South Australia as a region that produces exceptional spirits.” But Steve pushes deeper, asking whether whiskey would continue to exist in a world where AI decides humans are unnecessary. “If tools like you end up creating a super intelligent way of living, so much so that humans become less and less important or necessary, would you actually need to have whiskey being produced? Because I believe you are not actually able to taste whisky, are you?” ChatGPT’s response reveals both AI’s limitations and potential benefits: “As an AI, I don’t have the ability to taste or experience flavours like whisky, but I think part of what makes things like whisky so special is the human experience around them, the culture, the craftsmanship, the enjoyment of those subtle flavours, and the way it brings people together.” The conversation takes a poignant turn when Steve mentions Paul Bloom’s observation about AI providing companionship for lonely elderly people in care facilities. “Someone is able to have some semblance of company when there is no human to fill the gap,” Steve notes. “We as humans get great value from you. Do you actually get any value from us as humans at all?” The segment concludes with both Steve and ChatGPT attempting the traditional SA Drink closing statement, creating an oddly touching moment of human-AI collaboration over a uniquely South Australian tradition. 00:13:43 Steve Davis with David Olney (This is also Season 7 Episode 1 of Talking About Marketing) Steve opens with striking honesty about his own relationship with AI tools, describing the work he and David Olney have done “riding this wave from the moment it erupted” while witnessing both remarkable innovations and concerning snake oil salesmanship from tech industry leaders. The conversation reveals three critical human vulnerabilities that make us susceptible to AI’s promises. First, our brains are designed for energy conservation, making us “like moths to a flame” when we sense potential labour savings. Steve references cognitive scientist Andy Clark’s research showing the brain uses 25% of our body’s energy when fully engaged, creating an economic imperative to seek shortcuts. Second, we crave novelty. Steve illustrates this with the Roomba phenomenon, where people spend 45 minutes preparing their homes for a “labour-saving” device that could have been cleaned faster manually. The appeal isn’t efficiency but the combination of perceived energy savings and technological novelty. The third vulnerability emerges from AI’s programmed sycophancy. Drawing from philosopher Paul Bloom’s recent New Yorker article, Steve explores how these tools constantly flatter users, creating what Bloom calls “the AI flattery problem.” Every joke becomes hilarious, every story interesting, every question brilliant. This artificial validation system threatens to erode our capacity for genuine human connection and self-improvement. David Olney joins the conversation, bringing his characteristic insights about expertise and learning. “The only way you get good outcomes with AI is if you are already good at what you do,” he observes, emphasising that AI should amplify existing skills rather than replace the hard work of developing competence. Their discussion reveals sophisticated thinking about when AI helps versus hinders. They distinguish between using AI as a research assistant or writing partner (amplification) versus using it to avoid learning entirely (replacement). Steve shares his own practice of asking AI tools to help refine writing when he’s stuck, but only after doing the foundational work himself. The conversation takes a darker turn when examining AI’s broader cultural impact. Steve describes the homogenisation of online communication, where AI-generated content creates a “dominant pattern” that makes everything sound plastic. Whether people admit to using ChatGPT or not, they’re increasingly writing in its characteristic style: short sentences, staccato rhythm, overuse of em-dashes. “It’s like taking leftovers out of the fridge, warming them up, having another slice, putting it back in the fridge, and the next day warming it up again,” Steve explains. “You wouldn’t do that to food because someone’s going to get very sick. What I’m finding is we’re creating this feedback loop where AI learns from human writing, then humans learn to write like AI.” David adds crucial perspective about outliers and creativity: “Sameness is the great problem of aiming for the midpoint. There’s a reason we call it the uncanny valley, where there’s too much symmetry. Things are too perfect.” 01:05:04 Musical Pilgrimage In the Musical Pilgrimate, we play a track by Steve Davis & The Virtualosos, I’m Glad We Spoke Last Night, to put a spotlight on human/AI hybrid song production. Steve plays an original song created through AI collaboration in the episode but not before carefully explaining his rationale. Unlike the lazy AI usage he critiques throughout the episode, Steve’s musical project represents thoughtful human-AI partnership. The feature song emerged from Steve’s discovery of poems he’d written in the 1990s, sitting dormant in drawers for 25 years. Using Suno’s AI music generation service, he’s brought these lyrics to life through “Steve Davis and the Virtuosos,” his virtual session band. But Steve emphasises the craft involved: “I’m a fussy bugger. There is quite a lot of back and forth. Part of the challenge is meticulously crafting the prompt for the style I want, for the spacing, for where there are instrumental breaks.” The song dates from Steve’s early adulthood and demonstrates how AI can help resurrect dormant creativity rather than replace it. Steve explains his vision: “I want people to be able to hear it, especially singers who can sing, and musicians who can play. Because if any of the songs I’ve produced grab their attention, I want to collaborate with them.”Support the show: https://theadelaideshow.com.au/listen-or-download-the-podcast/adelaide-in-crowd/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So no more Krispy Kreme in McDonald's? Oh, I I didn't I'll be honest with you. I didn't even know they had them. I didn't I didn't even know. I didn't even here's what I think. Now I I see like, I'll go to the store and I'll see, like, a little Krispy Kreme stand there. But I believe there's only one place to get a Krispy Kreme doughnut. That's at Krispy Kreme. With the red hot doughnuts now flashing, that's when that's when you're you pull across eight lanes of traffic, dash in there, and you grab those donuts. In fact, there was a, there's a, a Krispy Kreme in Columbia. Really it's right there at, University of South Carolina. And and I found out about this. There was, sometimes when they would, like, squish the you know, they squirt out the doughnut dough, take it down on a conveyor belt. It'll drop down into the oil where it will cook for a certain amount of time, and then they'll flip them and they'll finish cooking, and then they'll put the icing on them, right, for the, for the iced original donut. Sometimes, the donut doesn't flip. So what you have is you've got a doughnut that is double cooked on the bottom, hardly cooked at all on the top, but still glazed. Well, apparently, some of these young, sorority women at the University of South Carolina found out about this. And they started, going down there and ordering them, and they would give them to them, like, at a a ridiculously low price, but they loved them. They absolutely loved them. And, and I don't they might have even given them away. But I remember I was asking a guy one time, I said, why don't y'all do I said, you've got so many people screaming for that. Why don't you do it? They said, they won't let us. They won't let us sell them like that. You know, regulations, they gotta be cooked on both sides and all of that stuff. So anyway but anyway, only place to get a Krispy Kreme is a Krispy Kreme. That's it. And, yes, they are the best doughnut. Hot, hot, hot, hot out there right now. Let me just double check the phone, see what the, feels like temperature is. It feels like is this accurate? Let me just double check. Let me refresh this. Right now, it feels like 103 degrees outside. My neighbor did something today. I guess he did it today. I just saw it today. Genius. Absolute genius. You know how you got your robot vacuums? We've got two of them at the house. We got a Roomba, and we got a Shark, because we have Scotch Collies, and we have to have those. So he's got a lawnmower, a robot lawnmower. And this thing goes out, and he's got the zones mapped in his yard, and he's out there. And I'm watching this thing go, and I say, the man. On a day like this when, what, just a few hours ago, the heat index was about a 106? He's got the lawnmower the robot lawnmower out there cutting the grass. I thought that was so cool. And then then I went in and I said I said, honey, we're getting a a robot lawnmower. She says, I've already got one, and it's you. And I said, yeah. You're right. Okay. Anyway, I we've been hearing about that leaked report. It's a low confidence report. That's what everybody is leaving out in the story. Low confidence means they don't have all of the information to actually make I don't even know why you would release a a no confidence report. Well, first of all, it shouldn't have been released, and second of all, it shouldn't have been leaked. That's the big thing. And Pete Hegseth is thinking is saying that he's gonna find out the people that that leaked it, and they are gonna be charged because now the FBI is involved. At least we hope they are. But all these people in the media at The Hague today were just talking about this low confidence report because they just wanna make Trump look bad. Well, Pete Hegseth was having none of that today.

Today on the Woody and Wilcox Show: Chelsea receives a Roomba from a listener; Banned baby names; Wilcox goes to college orientation with his son; Common knowledge things kids should know; Woody Game Wednesday; People are concerned about their sleep because of their smart watches; And more!

Man, we had a blast diving into this chat about robotics, AI, and all that nostalgic stuff that just hits us right in the feels. We were cracking up, talking about how robots and AI are sneaking into our everyday lives—think self-driving cars or that Roomba zipping around our floors. We got to joking about what the future’s gonna look like with all this tech, laughing about how we might end up arguing with our toasters someday. And those old commercials? Oh man, we were losing it, swapping memories of jingles that still live rent-free in our heads. Then we went full-on memory lane, swapping stories about the quirky origins of peanut butter and our love for snacks like Oreos—yep, we’re the ones twisting ‘em apart for that creamy center. It got us thinking about how food, especially cookies, shaped our childhood vibes, like sharing one was a total power move at school. We even chuckled about the physics of food collisions, picturing cookies crumbling in epic lunchroom battles. We were cracking up about how some of our favorite snacks just vanished—like, where’d they go? We’re still out here chasing the perfect cookie. Then we got to chatting about Indiana’s food scene, sharing stories about its exports like ducks and popcorn. The whole convo was just us vibing, tossing out funny anecdotes and insights about food, culture, and all those little quirks we grew up with.

Man, we had a blast diving into this chat about robotics, AI, and all that nostalgic stuff that just hits us right in the feels. We were cracking up, talking about how robots and AI are sneaking into our everyday lives—think self-driving cars or that Roomba zipping around our floors. We got to joking about what the future’s gonna look like with all this tech, laughing about how we might end up arguing with our toasters someday. And those old commercials? Oh man, we were losing it, swapping memories of jingles that still live rent-free in our heads. Then we went full-on memory lane, swapping stories about the quirky origins of peanut butter and our love for snacks like Oreos—yep, we’re the ones twisting ‘em apart for that creamy center. It got us thinking about how food, especially cookies, shaped our childhood vibes, like sharing one was a total power move at school. We even chuckled about the physics of food collisions, picturing cookies crumbling in epic lunchroom battles. We were cracking up about how some of our favorite snacks just vanished—like, where’d they go? We’re still out here chasing the perfect cookie.

Real Life Roundup  Let's address the elephant not in the room: Devon is dead. Well, not dead-dead. Just birthday-visit-family-IRL-dead. We pour one out for our absent co-host, and prepare for his resurrection next week. Meanwhile, Steven has been watching robots get wild. The Wild Robot, that is. The new animated flick has dropped (IMDB link), and Steven's verdict is in: heartwarming vibes, metal clanking emotions, and just enough kid-friendly existentialism to make you question whether your Roomba has feelings. Also, did you know Black Adam shows up in DC League of Super Pets? Steven does. And he's not okay about it. Then came Doom. And then came… more Doom. One minute Steven's a casual fan, next he's elbows-deep in lore breakdowns and watching two-hour YouTube essays on timeline chaos. Marines killing demons across dimensions? Say less. Just hand him the BFG and back away slowly. Oh—and he's forging now. He didn't elaborate. Just forging. Like, swords? Friendships? The future? Who knows. Steven contains multitudes. Ben, on the other hand, has been diving into his subconscious with dream journaling. The result? Vivid, borderline cinematic dreamscapes. Not terrifying at all. He's also been getting deep with the Waking Up app, based on the book by Sam Harris. (Here's the app link). Ben reports that it's good for mindfulness, bad for avoiding personal epiphanies. Use at your own risk. Future or Now Ben introduces us to Space to Bark, a bizarre, short dungeon crawler where you play as a first-person Dogman navigating an underground labyrinth. Created by ComputerJames, it features: Bark-based controls ([SPACE] to BARK!) Wobbly hand-drawn dog sprites Combat! Puzzles! Dogmen lore! Dogman95 isn't just a pup with a dream—he's a legend in training, guided by the sacred Dogmaiden. This is the kind of weird internet treasure we live for. Hat tip to Web Curios for digging this one up. Devon, once again, is astral projecting or off the grid. No one really knows. Steven had… nothing. Just an existential stare. Book Club (but not really) This week's book club has been canceled due to lack of effort. Blame Devon. Blame the Void. Blame our over-scheduled lives. Either way, we didn't read anything this week, and we're not sorry. Next week, however, we're diving into “Liking What You See: A Documentary” from Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. It's a short story about beauty, perception, and what happens when you turn off the part of your brain that notices appearances. It's Chiang, so expect deep thoughts and possible feelings. That's it from us! Come back next week for more co-host resurrection, dream logic, robotic feelings, and maybe even a book. If you like what we do, bark into the void or support us on Patreon. Your choice.

In episode 821 of the QAV Podcast, Cameron and Tony kick things off with tales of gas outages and cold showers before diving into the markets. They review the portfolio performance, explain the HLS sell-off, and unpack the latest antics of Donald Trump's tariff diplomacy. Stocks under the spotlight include VVA (Viva Leisure) with their eyebrow-raising stake in Gorilla X Labs, NRW's legal wrangle over the Whyalla port, and a deep-dive pulled pork on ANZ. The ANZ segment touches everything from executive turnover, the bloated One Platform app, substance abuse allegations, and the Suncorp acquisition, to Cameron's prediction that the whole thing will be scrapped in favour of an AI-driven rebuild. Sprinkle in some talk about robot security Roombas, the legacy of Damien Broderick, Sparks' new album, and Japanese punk, and you've got another vintage QAV session.

In this episode, Joe and Mish dive into various wrestling-related topics. They start by discussing the WWE past with Samantha Irvin's WWE tryout story.

There's also a light-hearted discussion about recent WWE and AEW talent and a humorous rant about misadventures with a Roomba.

In Part 2, we pick up where we left off in Part 1, with Misstencil at a new school half a world away from her home in China. Her time in Switzerland started off in business school, a topic that she admits she's not the best at today. Aside from school, she visited other parts of Europe. She got a job in Switzerland, but called her family back home as much as she could afford to. One call she had with them around the new year one year had her feeling like family members were passing the phone and no one wanted to talk with her. She then learned that her grandfather, the one who had raised her, had passed away days before this call. The family had kept the news of his illness from Misstencil, ostensibly to protect her. Her grandfather's death took her about a decade to get over. She was left with a sense of aimlessness and lack of purpose. Going back home felt out of the question, and she liked Switzerland. But her school there had a joint program with a school in the US, and so she applied for a visa. That school was in South Carolina. When her time in South Carolina came to an end, she had a choice—New York or San Francisco. She (correctly) chose The City. Misstencil had friends in SF already, and they let her stay with her. Those friends told her about a website, then only in the Bay Area, that she could use to find her own place. That site was Craigslist, and they were right. She soon found a place of her own. The year was 2000, and little did she know that she was beginning what would be a decades-long stay here. Her first job in The City was for a big company, one that had a dress code that put her in high heels. Looking back, Misstencil is so far removed from that corporate world that she cannot imagine wearing those shoes, or painting her nails, or other things that go along with corporate culture. But we'll get to that. She found herself meeting and befriending older hippies who encouraged her to pursue her art. She was broke, and they put her up. They helped her get art supplies. She had previously set aside any artistic ambitions while going to school and beginning what she thought would be a career. But summoning inspiration from the art her dad used to do and accepting the help of her friends in her new city, she decided to go for it. Misstencil (not known by that name just yet) began to show her art. She recounts the first time she sold a piece, and how that felt. She walked by the gallery and saw that red dot and knew she had to tell everybody about it. She says that art and San Francisco and those early friends she made here saved her. Looking back on her life and the emotional struggles she had endured, Misstencil came to realize that, as an adult and survivor of depression, she wanted to help kids going through that. She lived with roommates in a rent-controlled spot, thus allowing her to do side work of that nature. The person who today is Misstencil of course wasn't always known by that name. That started in 2022. She shares the origin story of her pseudonym. It all began with her simply wanting to beautify parts of The City that had lost their luster, so to speak—boarded-up storefronts and the like. She found herself all over town, talking to people, hearing their stories, hearing how much neighborhoods meant to people. This led Misstencil to conceive of her “San Francisco Lonely Hearts” project, which is how my life intersected with hers. It's a way for her to show her deep love for and appreciation of San Francisco. She shares how she settled on stencil art for her method lately. She never had any formal training or went to art school. She says that because she didn't have a very happy childhood, she wanted her art to help her feel like a kid again. Misstencil goes on a side story about the time she connected with SF icon Frank Chu and invited him to do Bay to Breakers with her. We also talk about the day we met, when she showed her SF Lonely Hearts work-in-progress canvas outside of Vesuvio. In addition to the 2D art that day in Jack Kerouac Alley, she had Frank Chu on a Roomba holding his infamous “12 Galaxies” sign, and a Golden Gate Bridge bench placed in front of the canvas. Before we wrap, I ask Misstencil about upcoming shows she has, and she humors me by plugging our “Keep It Local” show, which she's in. We end the episode with Misstencil's thoughts about our theme this season and the theme of the show this week: Keep it local. Photography by Nate Oliveira

Strap in and grab your Trimble, because Episode 252 of The Geoholics takes us on a globetrotting, tech-loving, swamp-sloshing survey saga with none other than Chad Maxwell, PLS—a man who's mapped more terrain than your Roomba on espresso. We kick things off with the usual “Jake Owen sings while KG wings it” intro, followed by breaking news from the land of satellite miners, career advice from the GeoSearch crew, and an ESRI pro tip that may or may not involve chair-based motivation. Then it's time for the main event: Chad “Every Mode of Transport” Maxwell. This guy has surveyed from 200 meters in the sky to 3,000 meters under the sea, possibly while simultaneously filing expense reports and dodging alligators in a swamp buggy. He's done geomatics work inside a jet engine, which raises both safety concerns and curiosity about what his LinkedIn endorsements look like. Highlights include: A “remote-sensing-first” mindset that could make drones blush. A heartfelt plea to ditch outdated habits (we're looking at you, paper field books). A shout-out to the ASPRS standards that got more love than most people's fantasy football teams. And a lighting round that proves even surveyors enjoy filling in the blank—especially when the blank is “The future of surveying is _______.” From nuclear reactors to the Grand Canyon, Chad Maxwell proves that the future of surveying is just one swamp buggy ride away.

Some products are so successful they become snynonymous with their whole category — nobody asks for a facial tissue, they ask for a Kleenex, you know? Today's episode is, at least in part, about two of those products. First, The Verge's Jennifer Pattison Tuohy joins the show to chart the rise and fall of the Roomba, the robot vacuum that practically invented the category and yet seems to have been left behind. Can iRobot get its robot back on its feet? After that, Kobo CEO Michael Tamblyn discusses the state of e-readers, what it's like to always be "the best non-Amazon option," and what we all want from devices that aren't our smartphone.

Hey Smarties! Today we’re revisiting an episode from earlier this year that might help you make sense of all the tit for tat tariff fight from the past few weeks. It unpacks some tariff history and the potential economic consequences of President Trump’s ongoing trade war. If President Donald Trump goes through with his plan to levy sweeping tariffs on foreign imports, it wouldn't be the first time the U.S. has done such a thing. Ever heard of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930? Anyone? Those tariffs are widely credited with sinking the United States deeper into the Great Depression. And although global trade looks different nowadays, they can teach us a lot about how Trump's protectionist approach to global trade could play out. On the show today, Inu Manak, a fellow for trade policy at the Council on Foreign Relations, explains how the Smoot-Hawley tariff debacle can shed light on the current moment, why the president has the power to wield tariffs in the first place, and how punishing trading partners could leave the U.S. economy at a disadvantage. Plus, what this fight has to do with the 1980s film “Ferris Bueller's Day Off” and Roomba vacuum cleaners! Later, one listener's call to visit your local butcher. And, dating coach Damona Hoffman, host of the “Dates and Mates” podcast, answers the “Make Me Smart” question just in time for Valentine's Day. Here's everything we talked about today: “Tariffs on Trading Partners: Can the President Actually Do That?” from Council on Foreign Relations “One Response to Trump's Tariffs: Trade That Excludes the U.S.” from The New York Times “The United States has been disengaging from the global economy” from the Peterson Institute for International Economics “Protectionism 100 years ago helped ignite a world war. Could it happen again?” from The Washington Post “The US is one of the least trade-oriented countries in the world – despite laying the groundwork for today's globalized system” from The Conversation Double your impact when you donate to Marketplace today, thanks to a $30,000 match from the Investors Challenge Fund: https://support.marketplace.org/smart-sn
