Episode 744 kicks off with new merch in the wild and the ongoing expansion of the “protect the children from the internet” playbook. Manitoba is floating a ban on social media and AI chatbots for kids with details still TBD, while the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee somehow managed unanimous approval on chatbot age-verification legislation. Utah, not to be outdone, passed SB 73 — a law that tries to pin age verification on VPN users and even bans sites from explaining what a VPN is, a move that will mostly degrade the internet without solving the problem it claims to address. Meanwhile, John Oliver finally unloaded on the AI industry, echoing long-standing criticisms: rushed products, acknowledged risks, and outsourced consequences.In the news, a U.S. Army Special Forces master sergeant was arrested for allegedly turning classified intel about the Maduro capture into a $400K Polymarket win, then attempting to cover it up in ways that suggest poor operational planning. Meta cut more than 1,100 Kenyan content moderators after reports surfaced that they were exposed to explicit footage from smart glasses users, raising serious questions about labor practices in AI pipelines. Google signed a Pentagon AI deal despite internal backlash while posting massive revenue gains, underscoring where incentives actually land. OpenAI, meanwhile, is juggling missed targets, a shift away from Microsoft exclusivity, and continued reputational hits around Sam Altman — including a widely criticized apology tied to a mass shooting and a fabricated Bruno Mars tie-in for his World project. Add in a failed retrial bid from Sam Bankman-Fried, rising volumes of AI-generated web content, and political interference with the National Science Board, and the signal is clear: incentives are misaligned across the board.On the lighter side, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds returns July 23rd for its penultimate season, and Ted Lasso is back August 5th, for better or worse. Jack Dorsey beat the inevitable Elon attempt to reboot Vine with Divine, reviving six-second loops with a decentralized backbone and anti-AI safeguards. Apple continues its slow AI rollout with new photo editing tools, while Google pushes further into data aggregation with wardrobe-level photo analysis. Hardware check: Logitech's MX Keys S lands as a heavier, brighter $119 iteration. In books, Peter Clines delivers with God's Junk Drawer, while Martha Wells signals that the Murderbot series may be nearing its end. The Dark Side with Dave ties it together with gun storage PSAs, Disneyland lore, Galaxy's Edge playlists, and a conversational detour through Super Dave, Martin Short, and the ongoing quirks of instant replay in baseball.Show notes at https://gog.show/744Watch on YouTube at https://youtu.be/P3NOSXlCs9EFOLLOW UPNew Merch!Canadian premier wants to ban social media and AI chatbots for kids in ManitobaSenate Judiciary Committee unanimously approves AI chatbot age verificationUtah's New Law Targeting VPNs Goes Into Effect Next WeekJohn Oliver Just Took the AI Industry Behind a Shed and Beat It With a Pipe WrenchIN THE NEWSUS soldier arrested for allegedly making over $400,000 on Polymarket with classified Maduro informationMeta in row after workers who say they saw smart glasses users having sex lose jobsGoogle employees ask Sundar Pichai to say no to classified military AI useGoogle Signs Pentagon AI Deal Despite Employee BacklashGoogle Gives OpenAI 20 Billion Reasons To WorryOpenAI's Sam Altman apologizes for not reporting ChatGPT account of Tumbler Ridge suspect to policeSam Altman Caught in What May Be His Most Spectacular Lie YetOpenAI ends its exclusive partnership with Microsoft‘Never Talk About Goblins': OpenAI's Instructions to Codex Have a Weirdly Emphatic No-Creatures PolicySam Bankman-Fried Seems to Annoy Judge and Lose Latest Motion for New TrialDead Internet Theory Is 17% of the Way to Becoming Reality, Study FindsMatt Mullenweg thinks WordPress is in decline.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Alicia Lyttle. SUMMARY OF THE ALICIA LYTTLE INTERVIEW From “Money Making Conversations Master Class” with Rushion McDonald [ 1. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of this interview was to: Showcase Alicia Lyttle, CEO and co‑founder of Air Innovations, known widely as the “Queen of AI.” [ Educate small business owners, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits on how to leverage AI for growth. Highlight her mission to empower the African American community to not only keep up with AI—but lead in it. [ Demonstrate how AI tools can transform operations, content creation, finances, and productivity in minutes instead of months. Inspire listeners through her entrepreneurial journey, professional pivots, and personal resilience. 2. High-Level Summary Alicia Lyttle returns to the show two years after her last appearance, now positioned at the forefront of the global AI movement. She explains how her work has shifted from annual summits to monthly AI Business Summits, teaching tens of thousands of entrepreneurs how to use AI hands‑on for content, marketing, operations, and scaling. She breaks down how simple tools—such as NotebookLM, ChatGPT, Jasper, Gemini, and HeyGen—can turn a single piece of content into newsletters, PowerPoints, videos, study guides, and more. She stresses that AI is now accessible, especially with free versions like ChatGPT. Alicia also shares her origin story in AI, beginning with a 15‑year‑old speaker at Walmart Tech Live describing IBM Watson. This sparked her fascination and ultimately led her to pivot her entire company toward full-time AI training and consulting by 2022—despite skepticism from her peers. She details the massive growth of her brand, including 21,000+ live summit attendees and explosive social media expansion. The interview also addresses AI’s role in finance, healthcare, government, job disruption, and how individuals can future‑proof themselves. Her personal story of overcoming a restrictive ex-husband who told her she would “never speak again” underscores her powerful message: no one should silence your gifts. Now she speaks to thousands, leads major events, and helps others build new careers in AI. 3. Key Takeaways A. AI Is Evolving Fast—and So Must We AI is changing so quickly that entrepreneurs cannot afford to wait for annual updates. This is why Alicia shifted to monthly training summits. People need ongoing education to stay competitive. B. Hands‑On AI Education Is the Key Alicia doesn’t just lecture—she walks participants through real demonstrations: Uploading YouTube links Creating summaries Generating emails, mind maps, PowerPoints, quizzes, videos, and more…all from a single input. Her approach eliminates fear and teaches entrepreneurs how to use AI immediately. C. Accessibility Has Changed the Game The release of ChatGPT, especially the free version, democratized AI. Before that, tools like IBM Watson were too complex and expensive. Now anyone with a laptop and internet connection can build websites, write content, or automate business flows in minutes. [ D. The African American Community Must Lead—Not Follow Alicia emphasizes that historically, Black communities have been “last in line” in tech innovation, but this AI era presents a once‑in‑a‑generation opportunity to jump ahead.She sees it as her mission to speak everywhere Black entrepreneurs are to ensure they seize this moment. E. AI Will Replace Tasks—But People Can Future‑Proof Themselves Jobs are already shifting. Companies are laying off non–AI‑literate employees.Alicia urges people to: Become AI‑fluent Join AI committees at work Pursue certification Use AI to become their company’s internal expert “There’s no maybe—you have to learn AI,” she warns. F. AI is Transforming Every Sector: Finance, Healthcare, Government She provides insights on… AI receptionists (“Monica” and “Leslie”) that boost customer interaction to 92% Financial analysis using secure ChatGPT setups AI mental health companions Government calls for national AI leadership G. Alicia Monetizes Through Education, Certification & Consulting Her business model includes: Free monthly summits Paid masterclasses Corporate consulting AI certifications Live Atlanta workshops She teaches others to become AI consultants too. H. Her Personal Triumph Story Inspires Thousands A powerful moment is when she recounts her ex-husband saying: “There’s only one quarterback on a team—and you will never speak again.”Yet today, 1,200+ people attend her live events, and tens of thousands join her virtual trainings. Her success proves resilience and purpose overcome adversity. 4. Key Quotes On AI Opportunity “Never has there been a better time in history to start, build, or scale a business than right now.” On Training Entrepreneurs “Open your laptops… use the same prompt I use. See what results you get.” On the Power of AI Tools “You can take one episode and repurpose it into all these different content ways.” On Pivoting Her Entire Company “In 2022, I said we’re closing this business and going all in on AI.” On Being Black in Tech “My mission is to make sure our community is not left behind—but ahead of the curve.” On Personal Resilience “You will be speaking on the best stages… people will come to see you.”(A friend’s response after she was told she’d “never speak again.”) On Future-Proofing Careers “Those using AI will replace you. You have to learn how to leverage AI.” On AI as a Human-First Technology “AI plus human intelligence—that’s what takes things to the next level.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week I'm sharing the third installment from the day-long conference convened by the Institute for America, China, and the Future of Global Affairs (ACF) at Johns Hopkins SAIS on April 3rd in Washington — "The China Debate We're Not Having: Politics, Technology, and the Road Ahead." The first two episodes featured Jessica Chen Weiss's opening remarks and the panels on what China wants and what the United States wants. This week's panel — "Tech, Rivalry, and Competing Visions of the Future" — turns to the domain that, more than any other, has come to define how Washington thinks about the U.S.-China relationship: technology, and especially AI. Once again, my deep thanks to Jessica Chen Weiss, ACF's inaugural faculty director, for organizing this terrific conference and for so generously letting me share this audio with Sinica listeners. Moderator Kat Duffy of the Council on Foreign Relations opens by interrogating the very framing of the panel: is "rivalry" actually the right word for what's going on between the U.S. and China in tech? The panelists give a range of answers — from "yes, because both sides believe it is" to Samm Sacks's pithy rejoinder that "rivalry serves specific actors and specific interests." From there the conversation ranges across the FCC's recent move to bar most foreign-made routers, the pitfalls of framing AI competition as a sprint to AGI rather than what Jeff Ding calls a "diffusion marathon," the many internal Chinas that get flattened in DC discourse, the cybersecurity reciprocity problem (Volt Typhoon, Salt Typhoon, and what President Trump tellingly admitted about all of it), and what it would actually mean for the U.S. to compete by being its best self — what one panelist memorably calls "Americamaxxing." There's a lot of substance packed into this hour, and a lot of generative pushback against received DC wisdom. The audience Q&A at the end takes up the role of race and xenophobia in the discourse — a topic that, as one questioner pointedly notes, had been conspicuously absent from the day's earlier discussions. Panelists:— Samm Sacks, Senior Fellow, New America and Yale Law School— Jeff Ding, Assistant Professor of Political Science, George Washington University— Mieke Eoyang, Visiting Professor, Carnegie Mellon University; former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Cyber Policy— Selina Xu, Lead for China and AI Policy, Office of Eric Schmidt Moderator: Kat Duffy, Senior Fellow for Digital and Cyberspace Policy, Council on Foreign RelationsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Proven Strategies for CMOs in the Canadian Retail Sector With the rise of AI, shifting consumer expectations, new market entrants, and increasing overhead costs, the Canadian retail landscape is under intense pressure. To survive and outpace the competition, retailers must adapt to rapidly evolving market dynamics, lead with courage, and be uniquely positioned in an ecosystem that's becoming increasingly crowded. So, what can Canadian CMOs and retailer leaders do to embrace change and make strategic decisions that will lead to true differentiation and sustainable, long-term growth? In this solo episode, Christian Klepp (Host of the B2B Marketers on a Mission Podcast) shares his exclusive takeaways from the DX3: Retail Reinvented Conference in Toronto. He explained how AI is disrupting the shopping experience, what authentic Canadian content looks like, and why brand stewardship is everyone's responsibility. Christian also talked about the leadership mindset required to successfully navigate a retail brand through turbulent times, and the importance of adapting even when the path isn't clear. He also highlighted the new shopper reality in Canada, the five key shifts in the modern shopping journey, and discussed what Canadian CMOs and retail leaders can do to stay ahead of the curve. This episode was sponsored by the Economic Club of Canada. https://youtu.be/E6-1X9PFRy8 Topics discussed in episode: [00:00] The Crossroads: Why the current economic and technological climate is a “make or break” moment for Canadian retail.[00:45] DX3 Trends: A front-row look at the core trends shaping the future of the industry.[01:40] The Tech Tsunami: How to build a resilient infrastructure that can handle the next wave of AI and machine learning.[03:30] Authenticity & Values: The intersection of influencers, local content, and core Canadian values.[04:40] Leading Through Turbulence: Why brand is everyone's responsibility and how to maintain leadership courage when the path is unclear.[06:45] The Human Behind the Screen: Understanding the “new shopper reality” and moving beyond data to find the person.[07:10] The Five Shifts: A breakdown of the modern shopping journey and final strategic advice for CMOs. Companies and links mentioned: Christian Klepp on LinkedIn Economic Club of Canada DX3: Retail Reinvented Conference Transcript Christian Klepp Christian Klepp 00:00 The business environment around us is changing quickly, and the retail sector is no exception. Canadian businesses continue to face significant challenges, from rising costs and evolving consumer expectations to rapid technological advances in AI intense global competition. So how can Canadian CMOs and retail professionals thrive despite these challenges, welcome to this episode of the B2B Marketers in a Mission Podcast, and I’m your host, Christian Klepp, today I’ll discuss what I’ve learned from a recent retail conference I attended and provide some key takeaways. I also wanted you to know that this episode is sponsored by the Economic Club of Canada. Okay, let’s dive in. So at the end of February, I attended a DX3 retail reinvented conference in downtown Toronto. It was an event where leaders, marketers and executives congregated to discuss challenges and opportunities that shape the future of retail in Canada. And today, I wanted to take you through my key learnings from that event to help you better position your teams for success. The DX3 conference covered a broad spectrum of topics essential for any CMO or retail professional today. So they cover the following topics, emerging market trends and the new shopper, reality, social commerce and the power of authentic content, retail media and its growing influence, Canadian identity branding in a globalized world, and also strategic leveraging of AI on the channels and sustainability to remain competitive so and as a B2B Marketer, I think it was really eye opening, you know, to hear how colleagues in the broader retail and B2B marketing ecosystem are managing these shifts and getting up to speed with new technologies also to help them thrive, right? One of the most prominent topics was, unsurprisingly, artificial intelligence, or AI. So there was the opening presenter, who was Adam Froman of Delvina, who set a powerful tone by stating, The next Tech tsunami isn’t coming. It’s already here. So some of the critical takeaways from Adam’s session on leveraging AI as a silent Copilot were as follows. So one was about closing the gap, right? So AI collapses that divide between knowing something and acting upon it, right? So it allows us to analyze customer insights, but it also helps us to optimize things like pricing, to create tailored experiences that competitors can’t easily replicate. Then there was that second topic that he talked about, with regards to operational intelligence and how you can use or leverage AI for inventory forecasting, task prioritization and also staff optimization. So it’s time to ditch those manual SOPs (Standard Operating Procedure) to reduce volatility and eliminate inefficiencies. The third one was a human element, so I think that almost goes without saying, right? So he’s not saying not to use AI, but he’s saying, while we should be embracing AI to stay ahead, we shouldn’t lose sight of our brand values, right? So as marketers, we need to inject the human element to ensure the customer trust is still there and it remains intact and isn’t jeopardized by faceless technology, right? So that was the first presentation. There was another one, which was a really interesting panel, and it was moderated by Jason Hunt of Merged Media that featured guests, Adrian Fuoco from Pizza pizza, and Tanya Kreinin from the University of Toronto. So they focused on the biggest threats and opportunities for Canadian retail, CMOs. So they had really practical but also hard hitting advice. And what do I mean by that, right? So they they talked about things like authentic content, right? So they suggested like for marketers in their campaigns to leverage micro and nano influencers. And why? Because authentic moments on social media often resonate better these days, with audience, with audiences, than highly polished, wildly expensive branded content, but we also need to think about how we can bring that authentic Canadian element into our content, those Canadian values around innovation and around kindness, around diversity, around that spirit of adventure. Right then there was a second topic of brand ownership, and this is something I think that people in the space has been, have been talking about for a long time, right? Because brand is no longer the sole responsibility of the marketing team. So in a retail context, that’s like, from the frontline staff to the delivery teams, everyone has to live and breathe the brand. Then the third topic, which I think was, is a really important one, because it’s talking about how to leverage or it focuses on the topic of data utilization. So it’s kind of like that old adage, like slowing down to speed up. So what does that mean? Right in the data co. Context, that means using the vast data that marketing teams have at their disposal to identify patterns in customer behavior and to continuously improve the customer experience. Navigating uncertainty was another theme. It was a recurring one. It’s one that we need to pay attention to, especially in these very challenging times. So it’s important for brands to also be able to, you know, be agile, flexible and adapt quickly to changing dynamic dynamics within the market, right? So there was another panel at the event with industry veterans Andrea Hunt from the Association of Canadian Advertisers, and Krista Cunningham from Revlon Canada. And they touched on how to lead through transformation. And there was really one great quote that stood out for me in that conversation, and it was something I think, that Krista Cunningham said, resilience is grit wrapped in grace. What that means is like they urge leaders to lead with courage over certainty, moving quickly and adapting even when the path isn’t perfectly clear. And their advice to retailers facing uncertainty was also very pragmatic, right? So the first one was to address the pain points, because the consumer landscape, as we all know, has shifted, you have to listen to your customers and adapt your products to their current challenges, not the ones they had two years ago. The second piece of advice was about making a case for relevance. So with new competitors entering the market daily, you must know why customers should care about you. And the last piece of advice is was lead with courage over certainty. So they encouraged us to be bold, to move quickly, adapt, fail fast and also lead with humility. The final session that I wanted to highlight featured two gentlemen. So one was Guewen Loussouarn, I hope I pronounced that correctly, from Haigo & Sid Lee Group and Johan Vakidis from Sid Lee North America, who presented an extensive study that Haigo and Sid Lee conducted on the new shopper reality in Canada. So they noted that while omni channel is now table stakes, the true differentiation lies from understanding the human on the other side of the screen. So they highlighted five key shifts for the modern shopping journey. So the first one is capturing attention. So basically, in an LLM (Large Language Models) world, you must be bold. Two consideration, you have to show the thing. So show the thing is like being direct, being direct in what you’re offering, being direct in what you’re what the benefits of your product are, or your service, right? Being direct in terms of how you’re different, being direct on how you help improve the customer journey, right? The third, the third shift was around conversion, so transparency is non negotiable, because fact checking is now effortless for customers. The fourth one is around loyalty, so focus on recognition and deep personalization and continuously improve the customer journey, right? And the last one is about post sales. So this stage is vital also for your long term credibility and reputation, right? So it’s not just important to help you know in terms of like, the customer conducting a purchase, but it’s also important to like, see what happens post sale or post stage, post purchase, right? In terms of like, how can, how they can get support if they have problems or questions, right? So these are very important key shifts that they highlighted, and that was a very interesting panel and conversation around that. So my time at the DX3 conference made it clear that while the tools such as AI are changing, the core mission of all retail remains about building trust, meeting unmet needs and bringing the human element back into our interactions with customers.

Growing a client base from the hundreds into the thousands requires both tech and talent. Today's guest discusses how she's done both in order to serve more than 3,000 advice-only clients over the past three years. Lori Atwood is the founder of Fearless Finance. In this episode, she shares why she built her own internal planning software platform to meet the needs of her ideal target clients, how her "hub-and-spoke" advisor structure helps maintain culture and consistency across her firm, and how she spends 18% of her revenue on client acquisition yet ends up with a per-client acquisition cost that's lower than the industry average. Lori also discusses how prospects (who sometimes use AI tools to answer personal finance questions) often come to her for "confirmation, not information" on their financial situations and how she's found it gratifying to be the first call her (largely working-age) clients make when they face an unexpected financial contingency and to be able to provide them with meaningful solutions.

What happens when innovation answers questions no one asked… but now we can't stop thinking about? This week on Hysteria 51, David is joined once again by Kevin Crispin of Behind Beautiful Things as they dive headfirst into a double dose of eyebrow-raising tech straight out of China—where the future is getting very personal.First up, Chinese manufacturers are rethinking intimacy with next-gen smart sex toys designed to push boundaries, blur lines, and maybe make your Wi-Fi a little too self-aware. Are these devices the dawn of a new era in human connection—or the beginning of a Black Mirror episode we accidentally opted into?Then, we shift gears—literally—as Chinese automakers roll out vehicles equipped with built-in toilets. That's right. Commutes just got… efficient. But is this the ultimate road trip upgrade, or a porcelain-powered sign we've gone too far in the name of convenience?From bedroom tech to bathroom cars, we're unpacking the wild intersection of innovation, culture, and “who approved this?” energy. Along the way, we'll explore what it all says about the future of comfort, privacy, and just how far humanity is willing to go to avoid being mildly inconvenienced on Hysteria 51!Links & Resources

Tech titans Elon Musk and Sam Altman are set to face off in court this week in a case centered on OpenAI's transition to a for-profit model. Musk alleges Altman and his company have strayed from their founding mission to develop artificial intelligence for the good of humanity rather than corporate profit (OpenAI denies the allegations). But is this just petty billionaire beef, or could it tell us something about our own AI futures? --- Guest: Hadas Gold, CNN AI Correspondent Host: David Rind Producer: Paola Ortiz Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Photo: Carlos Barria/Kenny Holston/Pool/Reuters Learn more about your ad choices.

Apr 24, 2026 – Join us as Mish Schneider of Market Gauge unpacks the forces driving new highs in the S&P and Nasdaq. Mish talks sector leadership, especially the dominance of semiconductors, and why this market isn't as broad-based...
In FOLLOW UP, the child social media crackdown keeps expanding. Turkey just approved a ban for under-15s, and Sony will require age verification for PlayStation communication features in the UK and Ireland starting in June—because now you need to prove you're an adult before trash-talking strangers online. Meanwhile, Anthropic's prediction that fully autonomous AI employees would already be transforming business hasn't materialized. Agentic systems are still struggling with basic workflows and, in some cases, slowing developers down. And in a more concrete reversal, Elon Musk acknowledged that pre-2023 Tesla Hardware 3 will never support Full Self-Driving. Customers who paid for the feature are now being steered toward discounted trade-ins, new cameras, and upgraded hardware—prompting obvious legal exposure.IN THE NEWS: SpaceX is reportedly targeting what could be the largest IPO ever, at roughly a $1.75 trillion valuation, with dual-class shares that preserve Musk's control through super-voting rights. Prediction markets continue to degrade: Kalshi suspended political candidates for trading on their own races, and Polymarket saw alleged manipulation via a tampered weather sensor at Charles de Gaulle Airport. On the AI front, Anthropic's new Mythos model had a chaotic rollout—used by the NSA, applied to patch hundreds of Firefox vulnerabilities, and briefly exposed through unauthorized access in a developer portal. Amazon followed with a $25 billion investment in Anthropic, even as governments appear to access similar capabilities independently.At the same time, the economics are tightening. Free tiers are shrinking, GitHub Copilot is shifting to token-based billing after costs doubled, and startups are normalizing six-figure monthly AI compute bills. Infrastructure growth continues unchecked: thousands of new data centers are planned across the U.S., while xAI faces scrutiny in Memphis over water usage and delayed mitigation projects. Environmental commitments increasingly resemble marketing rather than enforceable targets.Policy signals are equally aggressive. DHS is exploring smart glasses for ICE agents with facial recognition and gait analysis by 2027. Palantir published a manifesto advocating expanded use of state power with rhetoric that raised concerns about ideological framing. On a lighter note, a University of California, Santa Barbara study suggests that brief exposure to experimental film measurably increases creativity compared to standard social media consumption.MEDIA CANDY: Silo returns July 3 on Apple TV+, while The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 is expected sooner than planned. Battlestar Galactica lands on Paramount+ and Pluto TV May 1. Dead Can Dance is releasing monthly singles via its Bandcamp imprint. Deezer reports 44% of daily uploads—about 75,000 tracks—are AI-generated, though only a small fraction of streams come from them, many flagged as fraudulent. And yes, Jessica Jones is back in Daredevil.APPS & DOODADS: Apple patched the notification-cache bug that allowed forensic tools to recover deleted Signal messages. Roblox agreed to a $12 million settlement with Nevada and is rolling out facial age estimation, ID verification, and new contact controls, while still facing multi-state litigation. Cash App is targeting younger users—ages six to twelve—with parent-managed accounts, debit cards, and interest incentives. Separately, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction protecting ICE-tracking apps, ruling that government pressure on Apple and Meta to remove them likely violated First Amendment protections.IN THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE: AI-generated Star Wars fan films are improving visually, even if performances remain rigid. The current era of Star Trek is effectively closing out with a large prop auction, notably excluding Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. The broader discussion circles back to time compression—post-pandemic, and with age—and the persistent disconnect between economic scale and general dissatisfaction.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Shopify - Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/grumpyPrivate Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

We break down the polarizing "big wheel" trend, compare ultra-premium Partington wheels to Hunt's high-value alternatives, and dive into the coolest gear from the Sea Otter Classic. This week, the podcast is all about Sea Otter and we've got a full house. Lisa Charlebois, Logan Jones-Wilkins, and I all spent time in California at the event, and we've got stories to tell. We kick things off by sharing what the vibe was like on the ground, especially for Jones-Wilkins, who was attending the show for the very first time. After that, we get into the big news: big wheels. Some of us are skeptical and some favor the potential efficiency, but either way, 32-inch wheels are the topic we had to cover. There is a lot to take in, but we focus on the Salsa Fargo, a 32-inch lugged carbon bike from Faction, and a Ventum mountain bike coming this summer. From there, we talk gravel bikes. This is Sea Otter, so gravel is the focus, and Logan dives deep on a few cool bikes, including the Look G85 and an aero-focused SEKA featuring integrated Fidlock bottles. Despite the dirt-heavy show, I try to keep it road-first whenever possible, and there were some notable road launches. Partington showed off a crazy expensive wheelset that is incredibly light for a 50mm depth and uses a continuous carbon spoke system. The real surprise, however, was Hunt. Hunt launched a wheelset that is thousands of dollars cheaper than the Partington offering, slightly deeper, and nearly as light. It wasn't only wheels, either. I saw a Tavelo aero bike with 40mm of tire clearance and a 650g frame weight that will likely cost half the price of its competition. The No. 22 3D-printed titanium bike definitely won't cost half of anything, but it was spectacular to see getting closer to production. It might even cost more than the lugged-carbon Colnago C72 that launched just before the show. Finally, we wrap it up with our favorite things from Sea Otter. Charlebois easily had the best answer, but jump into the comments on Velo and let us know what you thought was the coolest tech we reported on. 00:00 Intro: The Sea Otter Classic Experience 05:10 The 32-Inch Wheel Debate 19:30 Look G85 Gravel Bike 23:42 Wheel Tech: Partington vs. Hunt 27:56 Tavelo 650g Aero Road Frame 32:00 Sika Aero Gravel Bike 35:00 No. 22 3D-Printed Titanium Bike 37:20 Colnago C72 & Expensive Paint 40:14 The $25,000 Factor Bugatti Concept Bike 42:30 Our favorite things

WE did it!! Episode 300 is here and man, what an episode! Truly one for the books as the Bros celebrate 300 weeks of podcasts and the history they've left on the net in these last 6 years. It's crazy to believe it all started with the clip that in the very beginning of the podcast. The Bros start with reflection on their podcast journey before diving into the Weekend Recap. Terrell's family continued the rough patch now knowing they've been down bad with the NOROVIRUS. Terrance also had a weekend of L's during he and A-Train's 3 Year anniversary weekend. This classic episode STARTS with the Course of Action as a tribute to the OG fans who've loved the original segments of this show. Terrance brings the heat asking Terrell about when ya girl gets hit in the face with the ball at a game and when you're arguing in public and somebody wants to be brave. Next Terrell continues the momentum with another segment that requires your ears. Last week it was guess the video game sounds, this week … Guess the movie based on the soundtrack or movie score!
