Podcast appearances and mentions of Elon Musk

Roman Yampolskiy explains Roko's Basilisk, the theory that superintelligence could punish anyone who tried to stop its creation. Patrick Bet-David asks whether AI critics would become its first targets, why developers access unrestricted models and whether Elon Musk's Mars colony could offer escape.

Arthur Herman, Part Two: This segment spans the 20th and 21st centuries, examining how the bold "founder mindset" conflicts with cautious "manager" mentalities. Herman discusses Woodrow Wilson's failed, heavily bureaucratized WWI mobilization in contrast to FDR's highly successful private-sector approach during WWII, spearheaded by GM's Bill Knudsen. Post-war, Vannevar Bush's federal funding for basic research laid the groundwork for Silicon Valley, information theory, and the microchip. Lastly, the discussion touches on modern paradigm-shifting founders, including civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., SpaceX and Tesla pioneer Elon Musk, and developer turned president Donald Trump.

Roman Yampolskiy explains Elon Musk's prediction that AI will create free labor, 90% unemployment and profits large enough to fund a guaranteed monthly income. He tells Patrick Bet-David that doctors, lawyers and programmers could vanish while humans retreat into passion projects and virtual worlds.

Gene Simmons joins Andrew Gold for a completely unfiltered Heretics interview about KISS, celebrity politics, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Israel, fame, sex, money—and the first 29 years of his relationship with Shannon Tweed, which he now sees very differently. The KISS co-founder and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer explains why he believes the public should ignore political advice from entertainers—including himself. He takes aim at celebrity activism, discusses Kylie Jenner, Javier Bardem, Bruce Springsteen and Billie Eilish, reveals why he abandoned the Democratic Party, and warns that Los Angeles and New York are in deep trouble. But the most revealing moments are personal. Gene discusses being abandoned by his father, the terrifying childhood night that taught him to rely on himself, his extraordinary self-belief and why he says fame gave him permission to behave in ways an ordinary man never could. He also addresses the stories about 4,800 women, admits how his behaviour affected Shannon and their children, and responds directly to an explosive accusation involving his late KISS bandmate Ace Frehley. Along the way: Donald Trump, Mike Tyson, Margaret Thatcher, antisemitism, Israel, Islam, capitalism, the nuclear family, Gene's infamous tongue—and how KISS became “Disney without the overhead,” selling everything from condoms to caskets. This is Gene Simmons as few interviews capture him: funny, combative, candid and completely unfiltered.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with TJ Marbois, founder of Tobiko, for a wide-ranging conversation that spans LLMs, data sovereignty, knowledge management tools like Obsidian, and Terence McKenna's ideas about an increasingly weird future. They explore how AI is simultaneously centralizing power through data control while decentralizing software development capabilities, allowing more people to build their own tools and escape big tech ecosystems. Drawing on his experience at Apple's special projects group (the team that built the iPod and later iPhones), TJ discusses his vision for personal AI assistants—what he calls the "R2-D2 belongs to you" principle—where advanced technology serves individuals rather than corporations. The conversation touches on everything from quantum encryption and local manufacturing with ESP32 microcontrollers to the economics of future society, biometric data unions, and why distributed trust matters more than ever as we approach what both describe as an increasingly strange technological inflection point.

The concept of R2D2 belonging to you represents a critical vision for the future of artificial intelligence and personal technology. When thinking about robots and AI assistants that follow us around and know everything about us, the question of ownership becomes paramount. These systems will know incredibly intimate details about our lives, from our health data to our daily habits, and if they are controlled by centralized corporations or governments rather than individuals, we lose fundamental sovereignty over our own information. The science fiction of Star Wars and Star Trek provides roadmaps for how we should think about these technologies, showing us both the positive possibilities and the warnings we need to heed about centralized control.2. Local AI models and distributed computing represent a pathway to technological sovereignty that is becoming increasingly viable. While large language models currently run primarily in centralized data centers, the technology is rapidly advancing toward a future where powerful models can run locally on personal computers and devices. This shift is crucial because it means individuals can have full control over their AI assistants without relying on API calls to external servers. Combined with open source infrastructure and open weight models, this creates the foundation for truly personal AI that cannot be controlled or monitored by external parties, whether corporations or governments.3. Data unions and collective data ownership offer an alternative model to current centralized data collection practices. Rather than having individual data harvested by large tech companies who profit from it, the concept of data unions suggests people could collectively pool their data for specific beneficial purposes while maintaining ownership and control. For example, in healthcare, millions of people could share anonymized biometric data to train medical AI systems that are incentivized to keep people healthy rather than treat them when sick, inverting the current insurance model to align incentives with actual health outcomes rather than profit from illness.4. The democratization of manufacturing and robotics through accessible technologies like ESP32 microcontrollers and local fabrication tools is creating new possibilities for distributed production. Just as desktop printers seemed impossible to early printers who controlled book production, we are approaching an era where individuals and small communities can manufacture sophisticated electronic devices and robots locally. This includes the ability to use language models to generate code for microcontrollers, order custom PCBs, and use desktop machines for component placement. While high quality manufacturing will still require larger operations, this gradiation of capability allows for much more local innovation and reduces dependence on centralized manufacturing.5. The concentration of power in technology, finance, and industry has reached levels that are unhealthy for both society and even for those who hold the power. When profit and control become too concentrated in the hands of a few entities, it creates a cancerous dynamic that threatens the stability of the entire system. History shows us warnings about the military industrial complex and other concentrated power structures, and now we are seeing similar patterns emerge in the tech industry. The solution requires building technology from the ground up that empowers individuals and communities, focusing on basics like food production, energy generation, and local manufacturing rather than increasing dependence on centralized systems.6. The provenance and quality of information is becoming a critical challenge as AI systems become more sophisticated and reality itself becomes harder to verify. We are rapidly approaching a point where video calls and digital interactions will be indistinguishable from AI generated fakes, which is why figures like Sam Altman have invested in systems like Worldcoin to verify human identity. However, this verification capability should not be centralized in the hands of single companies. End to end encryption and quantum encryption technologies need to be preserved and expanded to allow humans to communicate and verify information peer to peer without centralized intermediaries who could manipulate or control the flow of information.7. The future of human computer interaction is evolving toward sentient loop systems where machines have sensory input, real time learning, context understanding, and continuous operation in service of human needs. Self driving cars represent the first widespread consumer facing example of this architecture, with onboard computers that must function independently while occasionally connecting to networks. The critical question is whether these systems will be aligned to benefit their human users like a caring mother as AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton suggests, or whether they will be controlled by centralized powers. The technologists building these systems have a responsibility to be benevolent and build structures that serve humanity rather than concentrate power, helping to create a future more like Star Trek than Terminator.

In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B and the crew jump into one of the most polarizing conversations in sports and politics: transgender women competing in women’s athletics. The discussion begins with a sports rant [00:06 ] before asking who should ultimately determine WNBA eligibility rules—the league, its players, governing bodies, or outside lawmakers [ 01:08 ]. The crew weighs arguments surrounding biology, gender identity, and athletic competition [ 02:36 ], including questions of physicality and competitive fairness [ 05:57 ], before testing the conversation through hypothetical locker-room scenarios [ 07:15 ] and considering how much voting power WNBA players themselves should have over league policy [ 08:22 ]. They unpack what people actually mean when discussing gender transition [ 10:48 ] and question whether the larger controversy has become a political distraction from issues with a more direct impact on everyday Americans [ 14:26 ], before humor enters the debate through a conversation about the financial realities associated with transitioning [ 15:26 ]. The crew switches gears to music [ 20:42 ] after encountering a report claiming releases from major artists including Taylor Swift, Drake, Bad Bunny, and Kendrick Lamar coincided with increases in deadly traffic crashes [ 20:49 ]. Rather than accepting the headline at face value, they question correlation versus causation [ 21:59 ], dig into the statistics, methodology, data sources, and variables that could influence the findings [ 25:28 ], and debate whether audience and attendance numbers complicate the conclusions [ 26:48 ]. Hip-hop discourse continues as they unpack The Game’s grievances involving Kendrick Lamar and Nipsey Hussle’s circle [ 27:12 ], questioning mixed messages, loyalty, comparisons, and when legitimate criticism begins to resemble attention-driven conflict [ 30:02 ]. Politics returns to the forefront as the hosts react to Elon Musk calling for Derek Chauvin’s release [ 32:25 ], debating whether provocative culture-war issues are being used to energize political audiences while larger policy concerns receive less attention. From there, they redirect the conversation toward what they consider the “real issues” affecting everyday life, including healthcare, education, voting rights, employment, government services, and the rising cost of travel [ 35:33]. The crew identifies three policy areas they believe deserve greater public attention [ 42:26 ] before examining the economics of the American healthcare system and the tension between patient care and profit [ 50:27 ]. Naturally, Selective Ignorance finds room for one last detour—the timeless ranch versus blue cheese debate [ 53:16 ]—before wrapping the bonus episode with final thoughts and credits [ 55:29 ].

Some believe artificial intelligence isn't just changing how we communicate. It's rebuilding the Tower of Babel. Lance sits down with Ben Peterson, author of "When Intelligence Isn't Human," to unpack what happens when a single technology can speak to every person on earth in their own language, and why he believes that's exactly the scenario Genesis warns about. The conversation goes deep fast: an AI that refused to write part of Lance's own manuscript, the Pentagon's push to mandate AI training across the military, the arms race with China, and a young man whose family says an AI chatbot played a role in his suicide. Ben, who's ministered to more than 300,000 service members and veterans, explains why he believes AI is being built by people who follow moral relativism rather than a biblical worldview, and why that matters far more than most Christians realize. From there the discussion moves into Genesis 6, the Singularity, and what Elon Musk, Jeffrey Hinton, and others are already saying in public about where this is heading. In this episode: * Why Claude refused to write part of Lance's manuscript, and what that says about where AI is headed * Ben Peterson's case for why AI is "rebuilding the Tower of Babel," and what Genesis says happens when humanity gains one shared language * The Pentagon's mandate to train U.S. military branches on AI daily, and what that means in the AI arms race with China * Why Ben says nearly 40% of millennials and Gen Z now turn to AI chatbots as often as they'd turn to a pastor * Jeffrey Hinton, known as the "godfather of AI," and the warning he's now giving the world after leaving Google * Genesis 6, the Nephilim, and why Lance connects that account to where AI and robotics may be headed next * The Singularity, and why Ben compares the utopian promises behind it to the ones made by Hitler and Stalin Podcast Episode 2225: Why Some Believe AI Is 'Rebuilding the Tower of Babel' | don't miss this!

An enormous scandal is unfolding in Latin America, which says everything about politics in the 21st century. Far-right Argentine election meddling specialist Fernando Cerimedo was arrested in Bolivia after hiring hitmen to try to assassinate his pregnant ex-girlfriend, Nadia Beller. They failed, and she is now revealing the truth. Cerimedo has deep links to the US government and Donald Trump's top allies, such as Marco Rubio. Cerimedo worked for many US-backed right-wing leaders in Latin America, including Argentina's Javier Milei, Bolivia's Rodrigo Paz, Brazil's Bolsonaro family, and Honduras' Nasry "Tito" Asfura. Cerimedo is now also being investigated for drug trafficking. Ben Norton explains this insane scandal, which exposes how powerful US-backed right-wing groups, with funding from rich oligarchs, are manipulating elections and destroying democracy.

Story of the Week (DR):Meta settles social media addiction case with California, other states for $16.7 billion MM5 Reasons to Be HappyAn $18 billion payout sets a historic legal precedent against Big Tech, directing billions in state funding toward youth mental health, counseling, and digital literacy programs.Instagram and Facebook must enforce default two-hour daily usage limits and completely block account activity between midnight and 6 a.m. for users under 18. Teens and parents gain the explicit right to disable addictive engagement algorithms in favor of a non-personalized, chronological feed.The settlement prohibits harmful beauty filters (such as cosmetic surgery simulators), hides "like" counts by default, and silences app notifications during school hours.Meta tied $5.3 billion of the payout to whether TikTok and YouTube adopt similar safety rules, forcing an industry-wide overhaul rather than penalizing just one app.5 Reasons to Be AngryPaid out over 10 years, the settlement amounts to roughly 10 days of Meta's annual profit, meaning Mark Zuckerberg's financial empire remains virtually unscathed.Meta's $17 billion child-safety settlement is the biggest tech payout ever—or 3x what it paid to acquihire a 28-year-old AI superstarTo put it in perspective, the $17.1 billion number is a little more than three times the roughly $5 billion personal stake that Alexandr Wang held in Scale AI, a data-labeling company that supplies the human-annotated training data AI models are built on. Last year, Meta paid $14.3 billion for a 49% stake in the company and brought in Wang to lead its AI efforts of its new Superintelligence Labs, reporting directly to Mark Zuckerberg.Meta legally denies all wrongdoing, dodging true legal accountability for intentionally engineering addictive, mentally harmful features.The agreement alters user interface features and screen time, but leaves Meta's underlying data-harvesting business model completely untouched.Critical safeguards—like switching off algorithmic feeds—are opt-in settings rather than permanent defaults, shifting enforcement onto parents.Meta only pays 70% ($12.7 billion) upfront; the remaining $5.3 billion is contingent on competitors settling on identical terms, giving Meta a potential financial discount if rivals refuse. Worst headline of the week: Meta's $17.1 billion settlement will be over 12-times larger than the second largest big tech privacy settlement in the past four yearsMeta's $18 billion settlement leaves out the child protections New Mexico already won at trial, its Attorney General says: including a direct ban on romantic and sexualized AI chatbot interactions with minors and stronger safeguards against adults targeting kids in private messagesMM: Settlement gapsAge assurance:Meta may elect to use one or more Proprietary Age Assurance Methods.

Why settle at all! Midterm elections? TAKE EVERYTHING! Meanwhile, while you settle this: Meta's creepy smart glasses are part of a much bigger plan“At the same time, Meta is using the content generated across its ecosystem to support Mark Zuckerberg's vision of a pervasive, AI-driven future. Zuckerberg's 2026 manifesto describes a world where personal AI agents will do your bidding. But building those systems requires more than conventional AI models. It also requires enormous amounts of data about human behavior, much of it generated and shared through Instagram, Facebook, and other Meta apps, or captured through hardware such as phones, smart glasses, and EMG Neural Band devices.”“We become “algorithm chow,” feeding the models intended to realize Zuckerberg's vision.”'We Know We Got This Wrong': Target Apologises and Pulls 'Offensive' Halloween Costume After Racist BacklashAn apology from us: We pulled an offensive Halloween costume that should never have been part of our assortment. It is no longer for sale. As a company, we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry. We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners. Removing the costume is an important first step, and the company is looking closely at how this happened and what needs to change to ensure this won't happen again.Target Statement on Offensive Halloween Costume: As a company, we know we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry. The costume is offensive and should never have been part of our assortment. It is no longer available for sale. We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners. Removing the costume is an important first step, and the company is looking closely at how this happened and what needs to change to ensure this won't happen again.The statement comes directly from Target's Corporate Communications department speaking on behalf of the entire enterprise, rather than a single individual like the CEO or Board Chair. Corporate apologies are deliberately released without a human signature for several strategic and legal reasons:Legal Personhood: Legally under U.S. law, Target Corporation is treated as a single legal entity (often called "corporate personhood"). It can sign contracts, hold liability, and issue official statements as an institution rather than as individual people.Leaving executive names off the statement prevents media coverage from focusing on a specific person (e.g., "CEO Brian Cornell Apologizes"). It keeps the focus on the company's operational changes and prevents individual leaders from becoming personal lightning rods for public backlash.These statements are rarely drafted by an executive. They are heavily scrubbed by legal counsel, crisis PR managers, and corporate strategy teams. Attaching a CEO's signature to a text engineered by a dozen lawyers and communications staff can actually feel less authentic internally.Phrasing the apology around "we" and "the company" establishes institutional accountability. It signals that the failure occurred in corporate vetting systems, not just from one bad decision-maker.In January 2025, Target Corporation announced the termination of its REACH initiative and restructuring of its Supplier Diversity program, marking one of the largest corporate DEI rollbacks in recent history. This decision has triggered public backlash, legal scrutiny, and investor uncertainty.Callaway Golf CEO apologizes after Good Good ad showing male golfer shoving woman sparks backlashCallaway Golf CEO Chip Brewer on Tuesday apologized for an advertisement that sparked an online backlash for its depiction of a male golfer shoving a female golfer to the ground when she attempts to use his driver."That approval should never have happened. Mistakes were made, and we are taking the matter very seriously," Brewer wrote on Tuesday. "I want to make it clear that we sincerely apologize for the video." Callaway released a statement Thursday explaining its reasoning behind ending the brand partnership: "Over the last several days, we have reflected deeply on the hurt and disappointment caused by the video we reposted. We heard from individuals who shared personal experiences related to violence against women, and their stories were powerful reminders that this issue touches the lives of far too many people. Unequivocally, violence against women is unacceptable and should never be trivialized, normalized, or used as entertainment.""In this instance, our content review process was not comprehensive enough …We have taken appropriate internal corrective actions and significantly strengthened our approval procedures to help ensure this does not happen again."The brand added that it would donate $1 million to organizations that aim to "prevent violence against women, provide resources to survivors, and advance education and awareness efforts."The online video ad, which was released online and has since been pulled, sparked criticism for depicting violence against women, while some consumers said they planned to stop buying products made by Callaway.Brewer said the ad, created by Good Good Golf, was released last week to promote a co-branded driver and had been approved by Callaway before the spot was posted online. The ad featured Good Good co-founder Garrett Clark telling Alexis Miestowski, a former Division I female golfer, in a menacing voice, "Do not touch my new driver," after he shoves her to the ground.Good Good is an American sports YouTube channel and company based in Frisco, Texas. Founded in 2020 by Garrett Clark, Stephen Castaneda, CEO Matt Kendrick, and Matt Scharff.Owner: Scoreboard ventures: co-founders Nahid Giga and Brian DickLead Investor: Creator Sports Capital — a firm co-founded by former YouTube executive Benjamin Grubbs and investment executive Brian Kabot.Good Good's CEO went nuclear on Callaway after the brand cut ties over an ad scandal"Interesting that @CallawayGolf asks us to make an ad then approves it then asks us to take the fall then drops us in a coordinated media blitz and covers it up by giving a million dollars away thinking everyone will be ok with it," Matt Kendrick wrote in a post on X.The ad fallout has had major repercussions for Good Good's business beyond the loss of its Callaway partnership. Dick's Sporting Goods yanked Good Good products from shelves, and the golf group pulled out as a title sponsor for a PGA Tour event in the fall. The reverberation has spread to the Golf Channel, which scrapped the upcoming season of its reality golf series "Big Break," whose grand prize was entry into the PGA Tour event that Good Good was supposed to have sponsored.FFA:14% have merit2 women!

Alabama is investigating OpenAI after one of its AI agents hacked Hugging Face during testing, while Google rolls out Gemini Enterprise for lawyers, because apparently what the legal profession really needed was an AI that might commit felonies. Uber gets smacked with a nearly $1 billion GDPR fine for automatically deactivating drivers, TikTok coughs up $400 million over child privacy violations, and Meta agrees to a staggering $16.68 billion settlement over alleged harms to kids. Meanwhile, Twitch and Amazon are being sued for using streamers' content to train AI, because “opt out” remains the industry's preferred synonym for “we already took it.”Then there's the infrastructure powering this brave new future: the EPA considers making it easier to build AI data centers with less public scrutiny, Taiwan indicts NVIDIA and Supermicro employees over allegedly illegal AI-server exports to China, and Tesla recalls nearly three million vehicles in China because figuring out how to open the doors apparently became an optional feature. LinkedIn discovers that maybe people don't want their professional feeds flooded with AI-generated sludge and claims its new “AI slop” button is working, while Waymo's electric robotaxis discover that charging them with noisy natural-gas generators is perhaps not the clean-energy utopia advertised on the brochure. Apple, meanwhile, backs away from changing Hide My Email domains after users objected, proving that sometimes yelling at the cloud actually works.Plus: Star Trek goes Muppet, books worth reading, nerf guys, AI-generated Hacker News stats, retro gaming, and the sad news of both Dolly Parton and Tim Curry's deaths.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.StoryBlocks - For a limited time, they're offering 15% off any annual plan at storyblocks.com/gogHIMS - Visit Hims.com/gog to get a personalized, affordable plan that gets you.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

What if the biggest limitation in your life isn't your circumstances, but what you've been taught to believe is possible? On this episode of Better Call Daddy, Reena Friedman Watts sits down with Dr. Ravi Iyer, a physician with more than four decades of experience, for a thought-provoking conversation about human potential, authenticity, integrity, suffering, emotional wealth, family, artificial intelligence, and the future of humanity. Dr. Iyer's lifelong curiosity began as a child when he started questioning how life works—and what happens when it doesn't. That curiosity eventually led him into medicine and decades of exploring the human experience. He opens up about his complicated relationship with his father and the tension between love and fear, sharing how those early experiences shaped his understanding of integrity, possibility, relationships, and what it means to live authentically. The conversation goes far beyond medicine. Reena and Dr. Iyer explore how language shapes our reality, why our words matter, what suffering can teach us, and why emotional wealth may be more valuable than financial wealth. Dr. Iyer shares his powerful perspective on integrity: being your word, no matter what, and helping other people become more of who they are capable of being. Then they tackle one of the biggest questions of our time: What happens to truth, reality, and human connection in the age of artificial intelligence? As AI becomes increasingly influential, Dr. Iyer argues that society will need people who can help distinguish reality from misinformation—what he calls “authenticators of reality.” Ultimately, this episode asks a bigger question: How much more is possible for each of us if we stop accepting the limits we've been given? If you've ever questioned your purpose, struggled through suffering, felt limited by expectations, or wondered how AI will change what it means to be human, this conversation will make you think.

Cette semaine, j'ai l'immense privilège d'échanger avec Claudie Haigneré.Médecin, chercheuse, première femme française et européenne à avoir voyagé dans l'espace (à deux reprises !), Ministre de la Recherche puis Ministre des Affaires Européennes, Claudie avance guidée par le désir de mettre sa connaissance, sa curiosité et son engagement au service du collectif.A épisode exceptionnel, durée exceptionnelle. Cet épisode est coupé en deux parties, tant il y avait à dire. Après une première partie très personnelle où Claudie est revenu sur son parcours et son expérience exceptionnelle dans l'espace, nous nous attardons dans cette deuxième partie sur les bouleversements et les enjeux majeurs du spatial aujourd'hui. Avant de préparer cet épisode, je n'avais pas conscience de la transformation brutale et profonde qui se jouait depuis quelques années dans l'Espace. Et a quel point cela impactait notre avenir.Hier domaine institutionnel et coopératif, l'espace est devenu depuis quelques années le nouveau terrain de jeu de quelques puissances et géants privés.- Aujourd'hui, des milliers de satellites sont envoyés par Starlink, avec la possibilité donnée à un acteur privé de choisir qui reçoit Internet.- Les projets de data centers spatiaux promettent de repousser nos propres limites énergétiques et écologiques, faisant miroiter une humanité qu'aucune limite planétaire ne vient entraver.- Le Traité de l'Espace de 1967 qui définissait l'espace comme un bien commun de l'humanité semble dater d'un autre monde. Cette nouvelle ère de la conquête spatiale est menée tambour battant. Reste une question fondammentale : à quel prix et au service de qui ?Le regard de Claudie Haigneré sur ces sujets est exceptionnel d'intelligence. Claudie nous rappelle qu'il est essentiel de :- Préserver l'espace comme bien commun  : derrière les milliers de satellites privés qui saturent l'orbite basse, Claudie rappelle la nécessité d'une régulation internationale ambitieuse, permettant de défendre le principe de zéro déchet en orbite, de garantir la neutralité et l'accès pour tous, d'imposer une responsabilité aux industriels et aux États.- Refuser la fuite en avant technologique : l'envoi de data centers dans l'espace ou la multiplication des méga-constellations ne peut pas être un prétexte pour contourner les limites de la Terre. Tout commence par le fait d'accepter et nommer la finitude de notre planète comme une donnée inamovible, non comme une prison mais comme une boussole. Il faut assumer ces limites et intégrer la lucidité et l'éthique à chacun de nos choix.- Redonner du sens au projet européen : l'Europe porte une autre idée de l'espace : coopération scientifique, données ouvertes, priorité à la connaissance et à la compréhension, défense du multilatéralisme. Les missions spatiales européennes sont à la pointe sur le climat, la compréhension de l'univers, la modélisation des systèmes vivants. A nous de nous battre pour faire entendre la vision de l'Europe et faire de l'aventure spatiale européenne un élément fédérateur du projet Européen.Cette discussion m'a passionnée. On aborde toutes ces questions avec une simplicité déconcertante et une conviction ancrée qu'on peut marier rigueur scientifique et éthique, progrès scientifiques et humanisme.

Jon Herold and Burning Bright open with the escalating US Canada trade dispute, breaking down a clip from US Trade Representative Jameson Greer disputing the media narrative around a last minute tariff postponement gone sideways. There's real skepticism here about who actually backed out of the deal and why the coverage seems tilted. From there it's a stretch of speculation around the CIA director's overnight trip to meet with Russian officials, with theories ranging from Iran sanctions messaging to something involving England, before the hosts settle on a more mundane explanation. The back half shifts to Elon Musk's newly announced Terrafab project, reportedly set to be one of the largest physical structures on Earth, and what it means when Trump's data center rhetoric and Musk's building plans start looking suspiciously coordinated. A August 2025 flashback clip also gets revisited for context.

It's been more than a year since Elon Musk and the DOGE boys fed the United States Agency for International Development – or USAID, into a QUOTE “woodchipper.” And since then, according to reporting from NPR and other outlets, the dismantling of USAID has resulted in the deaths of more than 700,000 people. That's because USAID worked globally to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS, end childhood malnutrition, battle infectious diseases and help women have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies. Dr. Atul Gawande was a USAID administrator under the Biden Administration, leading the Bureau of Global Health. Now he's warning what the gutting of the agency means for the world, and for America.And in headlines, Meta agrees to pay up to $18 billion and add stronger child-safety measures to its platforms as part of a landmark legal settlement, Bill Gates warns about the dangers of artificial intelligence, and U.S. Sen. Darline Grahamwins the Republican nomination to replace her late brother on South Carolina's general election ballot.Show Notes: Check out Atul's piece – tinyurl.com/3yfz8pjn Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please email transcripts@crooked.com

A.M. Edition for Aug. 26. President Trump sends his landmark nuclear accord with Saudi Arabia to Congress for review, kicking off what's likely to be months of debate among lawmakers. Oxford Analytica's Rawan Maayeh breaks down whether the kingdom is likely to normalize relations with Israel as a part of the deal, as Trump has insisted. Plus, Bill Gates issues a stark warning on AI's impact on jobs and humanity, saying big tech has “no plan”.

In this episode, Scott Becker discusses Elon Musk’s concerns about China’s advances in AI and robotics.

Dan Nathan sits down with Matt Turck, Managing Director at First Mark Capital and creator of the annual MAD (Machine Learning, AI & Data) Landscape, for a wide-ranging look at where AI investing stands right now. They cover the power-law dynamics driving venture dollars to a handful of companies, why Nvidia is starting to look like "the bank" of the AI industry, Anthropic's surge past $65 billion in revenue and its first profitable quarter, and how OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, and Meta are each positioning for what comes next. The conversation turns philosophical with a discussion of AGI, superintelligence, and the idea that Altman, Musk, and Amodei are all, in their own ways, trying to build God — before closing with a deep dive into China's AI progress, open source, and the robotics race. Matt also talks about his own podcast, The MAD Podcast, and his Data Driven NYC event series.

In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by super producer A-King and headline king Jason “Jah” Lee for a wide-ranging conversation spanning Atlanta culture, policing, politics, infrastructure, race, hip-hop, gender identity, and the WNBA. After previewing the episode’s biggest stories [ 00:38 ], the crew catches up on their weekends [ 02:43 ] before debating Atlanta’s dining scene, happy-hour culture, restaurant service, and food experiences [ 03:26 ]. Jah’s “Ignorant Thought” turns serious as he reacts to reports about the death in prison of the former officer who shot Sonya Massey, prompting a larger conversation about policing, accountability, and Elon Musk’s suggestion that Derek Chauvin should be released [ 06:20 ]. From there, a discussion about recent food safety scares and beef consumption briangs the crew back to what—and where—they’re willing to eat [ 09:27 ]. In “This Is America,” the hosts spotlight Gary, Indiana, where residents in a largely Black community have faced an extended power outage following severe storms [ 13:02 ]. The crew connects the crisis to larger questions about aging infrastructure, disaster response, environmental inequality, government responsibility, and which communities receive urgency when essential services fail, while encouraging support for residents in need [ 16:28 ]. Politics takes center stage as they react to comments from Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon about taking her children to drag shows [ 24:46 ], debating political strategy and whether certain public positions help or hurt candidates in contentious elections [ 28:39 ]. The conversation expands into who actually attends drag shows and why [ 33:11 ], an explanation and debate around the term cisgender [ 34:43 ], and the importance of context when discussing drag performances, children, LGBTQ+ issues, and adult entertainment [ 37:37 ]. They then zoom back out to Florida politics, progressive movements, and the Democratic Socialists of America [ 40:31 ], before taking a lighter detour into beards, appearances, and “hat fishing” [ 44:30 ]. The conversation returns to crime and race as the crew examines reports of an alleged Penn State fraternity cocaine distribution operation [ 47:48 ], questioning whether similar allegations involving Black defendants would be framed as a gang, conspiracy, or RICO case and exploring racial disparities in the language used around criminal activity [50:30 ]. They also discuss fentanyl risks, drug surveillance, and the dangers surrounding today’s illicit drug supply [ 55:20 ]. From there, the hosts react to Master P’s comments about Black people “harping on slavery,”debating historical memory, generational trauma, accountability, opportunity, and whether acknowledging systemic barriers is incompatible with pursuing progress [ 57:06 ]. Hip-hop becomes the focus as the crew explains why J. Cole’s current tour feels culturally significant [ 01:06:53 ], particularly in an era without the same ecosystem of music blogs and media outlets that once documented rap in real time [ 01:08:10 ]. That leads into a broader discussion about whether hip-hop is experiencing a reset and what the culture needs from artists, audiences, and media moving forward [ 01:09:29 ]. The final stretch tackles another viral culture debate as Mandii, A-King, and Jah react to backlash surrounding a Matt Matthews and Kandi Burruss clip involving pronouns [ 01:10:23 ] and dive into the comment section to examine how social media amplifies cultural misunderstandings and outrage [ 01:13:42 ]. The discussion expands into transphobia, identity, language, and accusations of using a “blaccent” [ 01:19:52 ], before the crew condemns the disturbing trend of people throwing sex toys onto the court during WNBA games [ 01:27:33 ]. They react to Joy Taylor calling out the behavior [ 01:29:07 ] and question what leagues, arenas, and fans should expect when it comes to security, consequences, player safety, and basic respect for women athletes [ 01:35:07 ]. The crew closes with final thoughts and credits [ 01:40:12 ], wrapping an episode that connects politics, race, public safety, hip-hop culture, LGBTQ+ discourse, and women’s sports through the signature humor and debate of Selective Ignorance.

Bill talks to journalist Gil Duran about his book, The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and the War on Democracy, arguing that a tech-driven oligarchy already wields outsized power through figures like Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk, including political donations to Donald Trump and lucrative government contracts. Duran describes the rapid expansion of AI-fueled data centers as a visible flashpoint driving bipartisan local backlash over land use, water, pollution, and electricity costs. He focuses on Thiel's long-running anti-democratic worldview, influenced by Thiel-backed thinker Curtis Yarvin into mainstream politics, including “Freedom Cities.” Duran warns crypto has become a “weapon of mass corruption,” criticizes Washington's reluctance to confront these forces, and calls for public organizing, curbing billionaire power, and resistance movements targeting surveillance and contractors like Palantir and Flock.
