00:00:00 – Drugs, Dumb Teen Stories & a “Butt-Chugging” PSA Loose opener about uppers vs. downers, teenage Ritalin myths, oxygen-deprivation “games,” and the show’s long-running warning about dangerous alcohol stunts—then a pivot toward news.

00:10:00 – Robot Games: Toddlers Today, Terminators Tomorrow China launches the first Humanoid Robot Games: 500+ bots on 280 teams from 16 countries compete in 26 events from soccer and boxing to medicine sorting and cleaning. Hosts riff on elder-care “assistant” robots and the dystopian vibes.

00:20:00 – From Robot Olympics to Robot Allowance Speculation on “AI crypto allowances” to motivate humanoids, ED-209 jokes, and the idea of parallel “janitor Olympics.” The convo begins drifting toward brain-computer interfaces.

00:30:00 – BCI “Password” Guards Your Thoughts (Sort of) Discussion of a mind-reading brain implant that only decodes when you think a preset keyword; claims of ~74% accuracy on imagined sentences and even silent counting, with big privacy worries baked in.

00:40:00 – Death Valley Heat & the Federal Urine Chart Why people still flock to Death Valley in killer temps, and the National Park Service’s bathroom-posted urine-color chart for hydration—equal parts useful and darkly funny.

00:50:00 – Ouija Study Says Fear = Belief; Mike Says “Careful, Portals” A field experiment finds believers report anxiety and “supernatural” perceptions using the board, skeptics don’t—researchers call the board harmless. Mike pushes back: belief is the conduit; mirrors are “portals,” so don’t play around.

01:00:00 – Capitol Hill UFO Chat: Four Species? Show Us the Receipts Recap of an interview about alleged reptilian, insectoid, grey, and other entities discussed around Congress; hosts want evidence levels and, most of all, any real propulsion breakthroughs shared with the public.

01:10:00 – Alien Taxonomy & the Soul-in-the-Simulation Theory From Jason-Giorgiani-style categories (reptilians, greys, djinn, Nordics, machine/AI entities) to the idea we’re in a simulation—entities as “admins” fascinated by human souls; cycles of humans merging with AI and losing humanity.

01:20:00 – Caller: Anchorage Putin–Trump Summit, Ukraine, & the P-Jar Bit A listener in Alaska paints the scene around a Putin/Trump visit—overflows in dorms, air-show speculation, then a hot take on the Ukraine front. Comic detour: “presidential hydration” and a press-conference pee-jar gag.

01:30:00 – Comet ATLAS Omens & Starbucksed Offices Farmer Matt calls in with a spooky read on Comet ATLAS 2025 (bad omens, memory weirdness). Then: South Korea’s Starbucks asks customers to stop hauling in desktop rigs and printers as cafés morph into makeshift offices.

01:40:00 – Café Countermeasures → No Outlets for You More on Korean cafés limiting stays to two hours and cutting power outlets; running jokes about dragging in gas generators. The show then edges toward a bigger AI story.

01:50:00 – Zuck, Torrents & an Ohio No-Show Registry Allegations that Meta pirated and even seeded adult videos to train AI models lead to ribbing of “Mark Z.” Then a local Ohio bill would track interview no-shows—hosts debate accountability vs. blacklisting.

02:00:00 – Outro: Merch Woes & Pizza Sign-Off Wrap-up housekeeping (merch store troubles), then the classic “take care of yourself and each other”—and a quick “I’m outside the control room eating a piece of pizza” fade-out.
