Episode 11: AI, Diddy & GOAT Talk

📝 DESCRIPTION

In this no-holds-barred episode of 40 Years & 40 Beers, Joe and Bobby dive into the growing influence of AI and the responsibilities that come with tech’s rapid evolution. But it's not all robots and ethics — they also take you back in time with stories of fast food legends that vanished too soon, unforgettable school mischief, and the music and movies that helped shape a generation.

The duo tackles the current controversy surrounding Diddy, unpacking the complexities of fame, morality, and media distortion. They also reflect on fashion regrets, family food traditions, and why humor might be the only way to stay sane in a chaotic world.

It’s part tech talk, part therapy session, part comedy roast — and 100% real.

Topics include:

• The rise of AI and the question nobody asks: Should we?

• The most missed fast food items of our youth

• School days: pranks, punishments, and cafeteria chaos

• Album covers that told stories (and albums with no skips)

• Transformers: The Movie (1986) and Cinderella Man as emotional canon

• Fashion trends we regret and family traditions we treasure

• Why Matt Damon's EuroTrip cameo is unmatched

• Diddy, celebrity culture, and the price of fame

• Why laughter might be the only sane response to life
