  • I listened to these two fucking yokels because they invited a third yokel onto their podcast who's getting a little more attention than he deserves. Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance. Boy I have not heard so much projection in so short a time period than these three. But at least it gave me the insight to finally figure out JD Vance. He's the smartest stupid person around. He can make arguments, but he doesn't realize that his points apply equally to him. Honestly I'm surprised he can breathe... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Techno Babel: Christians and the AI Problem (ft. Dr. Mark Mitchell)
Q: How should Christians think about AI theologically?
AI should be weighed against the Tower of Babel narrative, emphasizing humility, responsible stewardship, and guarding against the idea that language or technology can sever humanity from its God-given purpose and identity.
Techno Babel: Christians and the AI Problem (ft. Dr. Mark Mitchell)
Q: What is your basic take on AI, and how does it differ from common perceptions of AI as just a tool?
AI is a broad catch-all that includes many technologies; its real distinction lies in how it is used and how outcomes arise, including issues of interpretability, dependence, and the potential for pseudo-competence when education or work rely too heavily on it.
Zemmour in America (ft. Éric Zemmour)
Q: How should France respond to the pressures of immigration and demographic change?
He advocates for policies like denaturalization for serious criminals, limits on welfare for foreigners, and a re-centered national policy aimed at preserving France's cultural and political autonomy.
Zemmour in America (ft. Éric Zemmour)
Q: What do you think about the arc of history between our two countries and what the relationship should be?
Zemmour argues that France and the United States share a civilizational struggle and that internal problems in both countries—immigration, national debt, and cultural shifts—require a renewed, reciprocal understanding rooted in identity and sovereignty.
A Pro Human AI Agenda (ft. Max Bodach)
Q: What got you interested in tech policy in the first place and how did you end up at FAI?
A background in science and technology, combined with an interest in how policy can shape practical outcomes, led to internships and roles in DC that exposed Max Bodach to the intersection of technology and public policy. This culminated in his work with Lincoln Network, which later evolved into the Foundation for American Innovation, where he focuses on convening conservatives and technologists to address technology policy in a way that balances innovation with societal safeguards.
