In this episode, Drew and Rory dive headfirst into the unhinged world of Midjourney’s weirdest features—literally. They crank up --weird, mash it with --chaos, and see what kind of beautiful monstrosities the AI spits out. Spoiler: it gets funky.

They also explore the newly overhauled Editor, layering images like they're playing Photoshop on hard mode…with no rotate button. There’s confusion, breakthroughs, and the haunting realization that we may never fully understand the UI.

Come for the deep dives, stay for the self-inflicted pain of testing every slider combo known to mankind.

You'll learn:

→ When to use Weird and Chaos (and when not to)

→ How the new Editor, Smart Select, and layering really perform

→ Tricks for image editing, texture blending, and prompt precision

→ Why V6.1 might still be the unsung hero of editing

→ S-Ref folders, image-to-video workflows, and UI frustration

→ The rumors behind Super S-Refs, Creative Mode, and V8
