EPISODE #69 (nice): This week, we gotta get into this crazy story out of Springfield, Ohio. A town of 60,000 has become overrun by 20,000 Haitian migrants. Things took a weird turn this past week when reports of migrants stealing pets and eating them started to pop up on Facebook. This led to an AI meme war, JD Vance tweeting about it, and Trump yelling about it on the debate. Speaking of the debate, we react to this week’s Presidential debate with Trump/Harris. We were fed the typical political slop that we expected, but it Harris did much better than anticipated. Finally, another round of Pirate Idol! 3 fresh contestants take the stage to compete for a co-hosting spot on the pod.

EPISODE #68: Welcome back to the pod! This week we are joined by Eade Bengard. We get into Elon Musk battling the country of Brazil over the banning X and the media & Kamala’s mission to silence tech bros. We then get into the new phrase that entered the lexicon this week: Founder Mode. What the hell is Founder Mode? Are we in Founder Mode Now? Right on cue, Founder Mode is, of course, deemed to be sexists. In our Polymarket Segment, we get into the odds of Biden passing the SAVE act which will require ID to vote. And finally, it’s Pirate Idol time! 3 new contestants step up for a chance to win a spot as the new Pirate Wires contributor.
