AI thinks it’s brilliant. But let’s be honest—it’s just confidently making stuff up. In this episode, Eric and Jared throw Grok, Claude, and ChatGPT into an imaginary cage match and break down why large language models are the most Dunning-Kruger thing in existence.

Somewhere between riffing on Eisenhower, the cost of paper towels, and Peter Thiel’s immortality fantasies, they land on something weirdly real: no one knows what they’re talking about anymore—and everyone’s fine with it.

Oh, and if you’re walking your dog in the middle of the road at night? Just know you made the pod.

Themes & Chaos:

• The Dunning-Kruger Effect in AI and humans

• Grok vs GPT vs Claude as literal personality types

• Remixing Eisenhower’s farewell speech into a warning about sharting

• The illusion of AI wisdom vs human intuition

• Peter Thiel, transhumanism, and uploading your weird uncle

• Amazon returns vs small biz drama

• America as the new third world (because… we invest in wars, not greenways)

Vibe:

• Part philosophy, part bathroom humor, full Gen X chaos — made for fellow Xers, curious college kids, recent grads, and anyone else who wants some

• Like if Rick & Morty hosted Real Time with Bill Maher while shopping on Amazon

• Smart enough to go deep, dumb enough to say “sharted” with a straight face

This isn’t a podcast. It’s a one-hour espresso-fueled meltdown that starts with magnesium supplements and ends with geopolitical sleeper picks. Somewhere in between: private jet manifesting, parenting advice, midlife TikTok fears, and Jared getting offended that he was compared to Finland.

Topics were planned. None were followed. Enjoy this episode of Jared and Eric riffing like they’re riding handlebars through culture.

You’ll laugh. You’ll learn. You’ll possibly relocate to Indonesia.

This episode includes:

• Magnesium and mid-tier electrolyte wizardry
• Manifestation as strategy, delusion, or just laziness with PR
• Spreading: the teen biker takeover that may end Western civilization
• Subway surfing and its terrifying tie to religion
• The prosperity gospel vs. podcast accountability culture
• Is podcast cheating a thing? And would your co-host forgive you?
• The Savannah Bananas or TikTok baseball
• AI hallucinations, goats, and why Jared is deeply offended by Finland
• Drake = UAE? Tyler, the Creator = Mexico? Jared = Chile. Deal with it.
• Deshaun Watson’s massage tequila (we're sorry)
• Goats & Blockchain™ — merch idea or future of nation-states?
• Parenting with cursing, Killian’s Red, and real talk

Questions you'll be asking:

• Is subway surfing just modern baptism?
• Are podcasts more real than friendships now?
• Does AI know too much… or just enough to hurt your feelings?
• If you say “I want a private jet” every morning, will it appear?

Real note: Subway surfing is not a vibe. It’s dangerous and people—especially teens—are dying from it. We talk about it like everything else: honestly, critically, and sometimes sarcastically. Don’t mistake the tone for a green light.

Honest AI Review (Generated, Likely Hallucinating):

“Like if Bill Maher, John Wick, and a malfunctioning Tesla had a group chat.”
This episode detours from electrolytes to existentialism, from subway surfing to spiritual disconnection. Somehow, Deshaun Watson gets a tequila. Jared becomes Chile. Eric tries to cancel popcorn. And goats show up. Again.
This isn’t a podcast episode. It’s a 90-minute metacommentary on civilization wearing a black T-shirt and shouting from a moving Escalade.

Skip College, Watch YouTube? Are we seriously saying that? Maybe. Maybe not. But in this episode, we’re questioning everything — from the cost of higher ed to the GPS route that almost killed us.

You’re dropping into a conversation already spiraling. Why? Because we recorded 90 minutes of chaos and chopped it up — for your pleasure. If it feels like we’re mid-sentence, that’s because we probably are.

This round: heroin stats on campus, Google Maps death traps, and whether YouTube is a better education than college. It’s edgy, hilarious, borderline motivational — and probably our best episode yet. Delusion...Part III.

This Skip College, Watch YouTube? episode includes:

• Is traditional education dead or just overpriced?
• Google Maps Cliff Route: When “recalculating” leads you to meth trailers
• Heroin at Chapel Hill?: An anecdotal, yet very real discussion
• Gen Z Drug Rankings: The NCAA bracket of bad decisions
• AI, No-Code, and Actually Building Stuff: How 18-23 year-olds should be thinking
• Deshaun Watson’s Massage Soundtrack: Sports commentary you didn’t ask for but can’t stop listening to
• Why Sam Harris is Just a Brand: Intellectualism vs. curiosity
• The Real ROI of College (and Podcasting): Friendship, not finances

Things you’ll be questioning after listening to Skip College, Watch YouTube? | Delusion III:

• Is YouTube the new university… or just the new opiate?
• Are mountain bikers the final boss of GPS failure?
• Can you study entrepreneurship without actually starting something?
• Why do fake intellectuals talk slower when they’re wrong?
• And how does Deshaun Watson still have a contract?
