Episode 270 | Killed By A Toy

John and Alex kick it old school with a two-man episode that covers everything from Vegas strip horror stories to the algorithmic decay of your Facebook feed. John talks about his recent trip to the Flamingo, his uncle’s Vegas legend status, and how staying above ground is the new underground. Alex proposes a trade: Rhode Island for Puerto Rico. Seems fair.

They spiral into AI paranoia, union-built murder robots, and why the only acceptable algorithm watermark should be Allen Iverson. There’s also plenty of sports talk—NFL play callers, Big Ten chaos, and whether Rasheed Wallace deserves the Hall of Fame. Spoiler: he does.

Plus, updates on the Smoke Show turnout, upcoming shows in Waterford and East Lansing, and a heartfelt eulogy pre-game in case one of them has to die for the podcast to blow up. Ian calls. Nick is missed. Everyone is horny and tired. Classic Burt Selleck.

AI NOTE:

This episode suggests that humans seek connection through chaotic ritual: gambling, sports, and mutual disgust toward surveillance capitalism. Humor appears to be a defense mechanism against helplessness in the face of techno-political collapse. Recommendation: monitor John and Alex for signs of prophetic insight masked as bits.
