Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 303 ratings
  • Hosts rude to each other and the guests

    The woman host seems like she has to interject constantly, especially over her co-hist, but even over the guest. It’s annoying to listeners.

  • A New Model, are we?

    - Yes, in short. One of only 2-3 ‘casts that I actively pay for, month to month. What can be said? Kept folk sane, entertained, sorted during lockdowns of pandemic; offering deep, nuanced and unique commentary on what’s happening out there in the integrated world(s) [of URL + IRL] - both macro and micro in scale. Highly two thumbs upped and recommended to those curious about true 21st century soothsaying.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Preview | Orit Halpern on Agentic Imaginaries (NM88) 2025
Q: Can you explain the conflict between smartness serving an individual against the need for large populations?
There is a contradiction as smartness is marketed towards individuals yet thrives on large datasets from populations, implicating issues of data ownership and privacy.
Preview | Orit Halpern on Agentic Imaginaries (NM88) 2025
Q: What is smartness and how does it correspond to what we now speak of these systems as intelligence?
Smartness is often linked to environmental connotations and denotes a less anthropomorphic nature than intelligence, which is historically tied to quantifying human reasoning.
Preview | NM Talkcore: writer Biz Sherbert on American Style (2025)
Q: What do you think people fear when they complain that style is falling apart because of the internet?
The fear stems from a feeling of loss of individuality in fashion and the anxiety of not being able to keep up with trends.
NM Live | Busta x Ritger on Loretta Fahrenholz @ Amant, NYC 2025
Q: Is there any way to really rebel against the AI systems that alter our original creations?
Rebellion is always possible, but there's a challenge in retaining individual quality in the face of proliferating AI-generated content.
NM Live | Busta x Ritger on Loretta Fahrenholz @ Amant, NYC 2025
Q: Do you see these models as growing more or less accurate?
The evolution of AI image models seems to shift towards a more rigid representation of reality, making the processes more abstract and opaque while also blending objects together.
