But Super Mario 3D Land is one that slips through my memory cracks a lot, and dare I say, for a Mario game I think it's actually a little underrated...It doesn't really do anything new or special, but it's a rock-solid 3D platformer, it brings back classic tunes and power-ups from previous Mario games, and while I think it's a little bit of a tech demo for the 3DS's 3D features, the fact remains that it's got that same level of polish most of my favourite plumber's games have.Pending RTG Hall of Famer Mark McCue is my guest this week, and while he has a stronger attachment to 3D Land than I do, I think I actually like it a little more than he does. At the end of the day it's me and Mark talking about a Mario game and sprinkling in some comedy stories. After 340 episodes of this show, you know what you're getting.And before we save the Princess, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, someone asks if Xbox is the new Sega?? Where do I stand on Undertale?? And what SNES games would I recommend for a 7 year old?Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 handheld Mario platformers: Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, Mario 64 DS, and New Super Mario Bros. 2.

Welcome to Episode 53 of the Freedom Factory podcast—marking the exciting start of Year Two! In this power-packed kickoff to a brand-new season, host Brandon Cunningham delivers one of the most focused and impactful lessons yet: how to chase the right rabbit in your network marketing business.If you've ever felt burnt out, frustrated, or unsure why your volume isn't growing—even when you're working hard—this episode is your blueprint for lasting, sustainable success. Brandon reveals why so many entrepreneurs get distracted by vanity metrics like trips, volume spikes, and promotions... while overlooking the core behaviors that create freedom and build real leverage.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why Incentive Trips Can Be a Distraction: Brandon shares his personal story of building a million-dollar business long before ever qualifying for a trip—and how focusing on the right behaviors yields long-term success.The Power of Enrollment Ratios: Understand why an 80/20 split (80% customers, 20% business partners) is a key indicator of duplication and sustainable growth.Subscriptions vs. Sales Spikes: Discover why subscription volume is the most important metric in your business—and how growing it 5–10% per month can compound over time to create financial security.Leadership Through Presentation and Duplication: Learn why those who regularly present the vision—both online and in-person—are the real drivers of leverage in your team.When You've Really “Arrived” in Network Marketing: Brandon challenges listeners to stop chasing flash and instead build a business where multiple leaders in different legs are each earning $20K+ monthly—that's when true freedom begins.Whether you're just starting your network marketing journey or you're leading a six-figure team, this episode realigns your focus with the metrics that actually move the needle. Brandon's energetic, no-fluff delivery cuts through the noise and helps you get back to doing the work that builds your dream business—without burning out.#FreedomFactoryPodcast #NetworkMarketing #LeveragedIncome #BusinessGrowth #DuplicationStrategy #LeadershipDevelopment #FinancialFreedom #SubscriptionModel #AvoidBurnout #EntrepreneurMindsetReady to transform your mindset and achieve your goals?

452. The Legal Pricing Rebellion: Why Flat Fees and Subscriptions Just Make Sense with Mathew Kerbis

Think the billable hour is just the way things are in law? Think again. In this eye-opening conversation, guest host Bridgit Norris sits down with The Subscription Attorney Mathew Kerbis, who shares how shifting to a subscription-based legal model can transform your practice—financially, operationally, and ethically. Mathew, founder of Subscription Attorney LLC and host of the Law Subscribed podcast, offers affordable, automation-powered legal services starting at just $20 a month. You'll discover why traditional firm structures are failing both lawyers and clients—and how a modern, recurring-revenue model can help you build a scalable practice without burnout. If you're tired of chasing hours, confused about AI's role in your firm, or ready to design a legal business that supports your life—not consumes it—this episode is your permission slip to evolve. Your law firm deserves better, and so do you.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Mathew:1. The Billable Hour Is a Broken Business ModelMany lawyers operate within a system that punishes efficiency and incentivizes burnout.Once you stop tracking time and start delivering outcome-based value, a better way of practicing becomes not just possible, but inevitable.2. Recurring Revenue Brings Predictability and ImpactSubscription-based legal services make it easier to serve clients proactively while generating stable, recurring income.Instead of chasing invoices and hours, lawyers can focus on meaningful client work that builds long-term relationships.3. Subscription Models Are Flexible Enough for Any PracticeFrom family law to immigration and even litigation, flat-fee and tiered subscription structures can be designed to accommodate complexity and shifting case dynamics.What matters is communicating the scope and pricing thresholds upfront.4. AI + Alternative Fees = Scalable, Leaner FirmsLaw firms can now scale without scaling staff by leveraging AI tools to enhance—not replace—human expertise.Firms that embrace AI see higher-quality work done faster and cheaper, making traditional staffing models less necessary.5. There's a Massive Market the Legal Industry Is IgnoringWith over 75% of legal needs going unmet, the industry is leaving behind a $1.3 trillion opportunity.Firms that rethink how they serve and price legal help can tap into this underserved market while making law more accessible to everyone. "The only people who are going to lose their jobs in this AI-powered world are employees who refuse to leverage AI." — Mathew KerbisGet in touch with Mathew Kerbis:Website: https://mathewkerbis.com/ & https://subscriptionattorney.com/Show: Law Subscribed: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/law-subscribed/id1586707101LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kerbisverse/Are you a high-achieving woman in law ready to become a powerhouse CEO?Then HER Law was built for you.

Institutions prefer them for their centralized control and ease of integration.2.

Global payouts, account funding, and subscriptions are key growth areas despite UX friction.3. Regulatory Climate Is Rapidly Improving: U.S. policy has shifted from regulatory overreach to bipartisan support for stablecoin legislation. This change is unlocking institutional adoption, with banks now moving aggressively into crypto and digital assets. MENTIONED IN THE CONVERSATION Topics: Zerohash, MoonPay, Transak, Ramp, Stripe, BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, Hamilton Lane, Morgan Stanley, Charles Schwab, SoFi, Uniswap, fintech, web3, digital assets, blockchain, tokenization, rwas, stablecoin, crypto, regulation ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT

The Empire Strikes Back: Karen Hao on OpenAI as a Classic Colonial Power

Keen On Democracy

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 9, 2025 46:56


Karen Hao has been warning us about Sam Altman's OpenAI for a while now. In her bestselling Empire of AI, she argues that the Silicon Valley startup is a classic colonial power, akin to Britain's East India Company. Like those colonial merchants and policy makers who wrapped profit-seeking in civilizing missions, OpenAI cloaks its relentless scaling ambitions behind the noble goal of "ensuring artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity." But as Hao reveals, this pursuit comes at enormous cost—environmental devastation, exploited labor, and the extraction of data from communities worldwide. The parallels are striking: a private corporation accumulating unprecedented resources and power, operating with minimal oversight while externalizing the harms of its empire-building to those least able to resist. Five Key Takeaways 1. OpenAI is a Modern Corporate Empire Hao argues OpenAI operates like the British East India Company—a private corporation wrapped in a "civilizing mission" that extracts resources globally while externalizing costs to vulnerable communities. The company's stated goal of "benefiting all humanity" serves as ideological cover for profit-driven expansion.2. AI Development Didn't Have to Be This Destructive Before OpenAI's "scaling at all costs" approach, researchers were developing smaller, more efficient AI models using curated datasets. OpenAI deliberately chose quantity over quality, leading to massive computational requirements and environmental damage that could have been avoided.3. The Climate and Social Costs Are Staggering McKinsey estimates global energy grids need to add 2-6 times California's annual consumption to support AI infrastructure expansion. This means retired coal plants staying online, new methane turbines in working-class communities, and data centers consuming public drinking water in drought-prone areas.4. The Business Model May Be Unsustainable Despite raising $40 billion (Silicon Valley's largest private investment), OpenAI hasn't demonstrated how to monetize at that scale. Subscriptions don't cover operational costs, leading to considerations of thousand-dollar monthly fees or surveillance-based advertising models.5. Resistance is Possible and Already Happening Communities worldwide are successfully pushing back—from Chilean residents stalling Google data centers for five years to artists suing over intellectual property theft. Hao argues collective action across AI's supply chain can force a shift toward more democratic, community-centered development.Karen Hao is an award-winning journalist covering the impacts of artificial intelligence on society. She writes for publications including The Atlantic and leads the Pulitzer Center's AI Spotlight Series, a program training thousands of journalists around the world on how to cover AI. She was formerly a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, covering American and Chinese tech companies, and a senior editor for AI at MIT Technology Review. Her work is regularly taught in universities and cited by governments. She has received numerous accolades for her coverage, including an American Humanist Media Award and American National Magazine Award for Journalists Under 30. She received her Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering from MIT.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting the daily KEEN ON show, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy interview series. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE.

It has a storied brand. While AI is threatening to overwhelm swathes of the industry, the Journal has benefited from advertising from flush AI companies. Yet it isn't immune to the pressures facing publishing overall and news in particular.WSJ CRO Josh Stinchcomb joined the show to discuss how the Journal is using the trust its journalism engenders to make money in new ways that aren't related to either ads or subscriptions, including events, executive communities and as a brand halo for Dow Jones information products.

I agree with everyone that says this game is stunning to look at and the soundtrack is superb. It's creative and tells a story. Honestly, I like almost everything about Okami. Except, playing it... It definitely has some Zelda DNA in it and that isn't a bad thing at all. You're solving puzzles, acquiring power-ups, running through fields. You get to play as a wolf which is rad. I just didn't find the actual gameplay mechanics that interesting. The paintbrush mechanic is sic, but I feel it was under utilized. The combat is kinda boring. And while the writing is really solid (and funny), there's just a little too much of it. My buddy Bradley McCue returns to the show this week. He's a Zelda diehard and liked Okami a little more than I did. I thought it was a work of art that I just didn't want to play, whereas Bradley thought it lived up to the Zelda DNA coursing through its veins. We had a pretty good discussion about this one, so whether you love this game or not, I hope/think you'll enjoy this episode.

I agree with everyone that says this game is stunning to look at and the soundtrack is superb. It's creative and tells a story. Honestly, I like almost everything about Okami. Except, playing it... It definitely has some Zelda DNA in it and that isn't a bad thing at all. You're solving puzzles, acquiring power-ups, running through fields. You get to play as a wolf which is rad. I just didn't find the actual gameplay mechanics that interesting. The paintbrush mechanic is sic, but I feel it was under utilized. The combat is kinda boring. And while the writing is really solid (and funny), there's just a little too much of it. My buddy Bradley McCue returns to the show this week. He's a Zelda diehard and liked Okami a little more than I did. I thought it was a work of art that I just didn't want to play, whereas Bradley thought it lived up to the Zelda DNA coursing through its veins. We had a pretty good discussion about this one, so whether you love this game or not, I hope/think you'll enjoy this episode. And before we try to get Issun laid, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what console has the best ratio of good games to bad in its library? What are my favourite video game quotes? And have I ever turned anything really cool down in my careers as a comedian or podcaster? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 great games where you play as animals: Donkey Kong Country, Sonic 2, and Crash Bandicoot.

It's too bad they kinda suck. I think you could fire up World Series of Poker today and be pretty underwhelmed. It's ugly, the career mode is pretty thin, and the AI is trash. But back in 2005 when I fell in love with poker and didn't have the bankroll to play at the casino, this was where I got my fix when I couldn't get a home game together. I have a soft, soft spot in my heart for not only the WSOP video games, but WPT and Stacked as well, and I get into all of them this week in a rare solo episode. And before I shuffle up and deal, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks if I've ever written any jokes about gaming for my comedy act? I address the barrage of Titanfall 2 DMs I've gotten lately. And is GTA 6 worth $100? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!
