Short episode because Mike's power went out. EDIT: I fixed the intro. This is a re-upload
00:00:00 – Stream Setup Chaos & the Cloud VM
Plan
Mike wrestles with streaming platforms and lands on a plan to run
OBS/Restream through a cloud-hosted GPU VM—cool, pricey, and very
“to the cloud!”
00:10:00 – “Watercooler Show” Vibes & Alex/Owen
Drama
The guys tee up a “big” episode, then dive into the Alex Jones–Owen
Shroyer split, with speculation about what triggered the
blow-up.
00:20:00 – Alex’s Apology, Joe’s Update, and a
Goldblum Bit
Alex Jones apologizes on air; Joe sends word he’ll be back after
finishing freelance gigs; and we get a pitch-perfect Jeff Goldblum
read before pivoting topics.
00:30:00 – Did the Ancient Greeks Reach
America?
They unpack a Greek Reporter piece: a Plutarch dialogue, Saturn in
Taurus as a travel marker, and a 75 AD eclipse are used to argue
Greeks could ride Atlantic currents to North America—wild, but fun
to consider.
00:40:00 – Bigfoot as…
Cain?
A Mormon-adjacent legend says Cain was cursed to roam the earth—and
some tie that to Bigfoot. The crew riffs on the lore and how it
meshes with sightings.
00:50:00 – Bigfoot Lore Deep
Dive
More on the Cain/Bigfoot angle, an ex-Mormon thread, even “Is
Bigfoot a swimmer?” plus a recent Michigan encounter reminder.
01:00:00 – Roger Waters vs. the Osbournes &
Radiohead Buzz
Roger Waters’ jab at Ozzy draws fire from Jack Osbourne; then
chatter veers to sales stats and Radiohead’s first tour in
years.
01:10:00 – Network-State Utopias in Ghost
Cities
Balaji’s “network state” gets a workout: a ghost metropolis in
Malaysia as a classroom, legal headaches in Honduras, and big
questions about recognition and sovereignty.
01:20:00 – AI Money Flood & a Peer-Reviewed UFO
Case
Anthropic/Claude closes a monster Series F at a gargantuan
valuation, and—big one for UFO nerds—a 1966 Louisiana case is
accepted by Progress in
Aerospace Sciences after peer review.
01:30:00 – “Desert of the Weird”: 100 Piles of
Ashes & AC/DC vs. Wolves
A Nevada mystery: roughly 100 piles of professionally cremated
remains are found near Searchlight; later, drones blasting AC/DC
are used to haze wolves and protect cattle.
01:40:00 – The Lights Go
Out
A sudden power outage knocks the show offline; Mike signs off and
promises an extra-long crazy-news segment Saturday.
