00:02:31.680 -->
00:02:34.639Here are our top technology stories of the week.
00:02:34.879 -->
00:02:36.000All right, story number one.
00:02:36.159 -->
00:02:43.439California Attorney General says millions of people trusted 23andMe with that data, and that trust has now been broken.
00:02:44.240 -->
00:02:45.360I don't know that that's news.
00:02:45.439 -->
00:02:48.639We talked about we talked about what was going to happen a year ago.
00:02:48.960 -->
00:02:49.520Yeah, we did.
00:02:49.599 -->
00:02:51.120We said that what happens when you do that.
00:02:51.199 -->
00:02:51.759You know what?
00:02:51.840 -->
00:02:56.560We're gonna go to our tech tight insider, Jennifer Merrick, for more on this story.
00:02:58.080 -->
00:02:59.120Thanks, Nathan.
00:02:59.360 -->
00:03:12.159California Attorney General Bob Bonta announcing a lawsuit against the company now known as Chrome Holding, alleging that its predecessor, 23andMe, failed to protect customers in a massive 2023 breach.
00:03:12.479 -->
00:03:23.039Nearly seven million users had deeply personal information exposed, not just names, but genetic traits, ancestry, and even data tied to biological relatives.
00:03:23.280 -->
00:03:32.080Investigators say hackers used a common tactic called credential stuffing, essentially reusing stolen passwords from other sites to break into accounts.
00:03:32.319 -->
00:03:34.240But the follow didn't stop there.
00:03:34.479 -->
00:03:40.800Some of that data was later sold online, with listings reportedly highlighting specific ethnic groups.
00:03:41.199 -->
00:03:42.960This isn't just a privacy issue.
00:03:43.039 -->
00:03:44.080It's permanent.
00:03:44.319 -->
00:03:46.159Now, back to the studio.
00:03:47.599 -->
00:03:52.639I think we should just all give just put all of our information on the dark web.
00:03:52.960 -->
00:03:53.759Just on the dark web?
00:03:54.000 -->
00:03:57.520I think, yeah, I think I think we should just go ahead and just do that ourselves.
00:03:57.759 -->
00:03:58.240Well, guess what?
00:03:58.319 -->
00:03:59.120You can do that right now.
00:03:59.280 -->
00:04:01.52023andMe's data is available for purchase.
00:04:01.759 -->
00:04:05.280Yeah, we thought we talked about that before when they were going through that.
00:04:06.719 -->
00:04:09.120The first time when they only got purchased by the Chinese company.
00:04:09.199 -->
00:04:09.759Yep, the first time.
00:04:17.120 -->
00:04:20.560How much do you think your DNA would be worth on the dark web?
00:04:20.879 -->
00:04:21.120I don't know.
00:04:21.279 -->
00:04:22.720Wasn't I supposed to ask you that question?
00:04:22.959 -->
00:04:25.439You're supposed to ask how much how much is your DNA worth on the dark website?
00:04:25.600 -->
00:04:30.079But if I told you everybody's DNA on the dark web is worth eight cents.
00:04:30.720 -->
00:04:31.839Eight cents.
00:04:32.079 -->
00:04:34.240I can find out all of your DNA information for eight cents.
00:04:34.800 -->
00:04:35.199Eight cents.
00:04:35.360 -->
00:04:36.160I'm worth eight cents.
00:04:36.399 -->
00:04:37.839There is a requirement of that eight cents.
00:04:37.920 -->
00:04:40.639I have to spend a minimum of a dollar to get that.
00:04:40.720 -->
00:04:42.879So uh to buy 12 people.
00:04:43.040 -->
00:04:47.360Yeah, I gotta buy like 12 people's DNA so that I can have the DNA that's available there.
00:04:47.439 -->
00:04:58.959So you know, some people treasure DNA, think it's the most valuable part about who you are, but I guess eight cents is uh telling you how much your DNA is worth or thieves.
00:04:59.279 -->
00:04:59.680Wow.
00:04:59.759 -->
00:05:01.279Now, let me ask a question here.
00:05:01.360 -->
00:05:03.920It's okay if your social media account gets hacked.
00:05:04.160 -->
00:05:05.199What's the worst thing you do?
00:05:05.279 -->
00:05:07.680You change a credit card, you change a password.
00:05:08.000 -->
00:05:08.800But guess what?
00:05:08.959 -->
00:05:11.600In DNA, you just can't go out and get a new one.
00:05:11.680 -->
00:05:12.079You know that?
00:05:12.240 -->
00:05:15.439Once your DNA has been leaked out there, it's pretty much gone forever.
00:05:15.839 -->
00:05:19.360Now, the case is gonna continue to go on with 23andMe.
00:05:19.519 -->
00:05:27.439And the bigger question for the whole tech industry is why is companies not protecting the most personal data we have?
00:05:28.160 -->
00:05:30.079Because they don't have to.
00:05:30.560 -->
00:05:34.560And because of that, tech gets more personal, the risks get a whole lot bigger.
00:05:34.800 -->
00:05:35.759Nobody cares.
00:05:36.319 -->
00:05:44.240We are gonna be at a point someday where all of our information will just it'll just be so easy to get that we'll just have to create our own new information.
00:05:44.480 -->
00:05:46.959You know, I create my own new information every day.
00:05:47.199 -->
00:05:48.000Okay, there you go.
00:05:48.319 -->
00:05:49.600All right, so okay.
00:05:49.759 -->
00:05:51.839Well, that is the breaking story.
00:05:51.920 -->
00:05:53.040It's kind of a sad story.
00:05:53.120 -->
00:05:56.720I know we don't like lean out with which we're supposed to eat we're supposed to do the sandwich method.
00:05:56.879 -->
00:05:59.920I'm just gonna put it positive, negative, positive.
00:06:00.160 -->
00:06:03.040But uh it was kind of positive.
00:06:03.120 -->
00:06:05.279At least you know your your DNA is worth a little bit of money.
00:06:05.439 -->
00:06:07.360I'm gonna I'm gonna just put it out there.
00:06:07.519 -->
00:06:07.839Yeah.
00:06:08.079 -->
00:06:09.040We told you so.
00:06:09.279 -->
00:06:09.920Okay, all right.
00:06:10.079 -->
00:06:10.560We told you.
00:06:10.720 -->
00:06:11.680Let's go to story number two.
00:06:11.759 -->
00:06:13.199I'm sure that's gonna be a much better story.
00:06:13.439 -->
00:06:14.079I'm sure it is.
00:06:14.160 -->
00:06:15.759Do you know what a flock camera is?
00:06:16.000 -->
00:06:17.040Uh flock camera.
00:06:17.120 -->
00:06:18.480If L O C K.
00:06:18.560 -->
00:06:19.279What's a flock camera?
00:06:19.439 -->
00:06:25.759So those are the ones that are you get me for the failing to stop at a stop sign and in and moving through.
00:06:25.839 -->
00:06:27.759They they send me a ticket, I think, right?
00:06:28.000 -->
00:06:29.439Uh yeah, yeah.
00:06:29.759 -->
00:06:36.879So let's talk about the future of smart cities because apparently it now comes with drawstrings and a faint scent of kitchen trash.
00:06:37.040 -->
00:06:38.079Oh what?
00:06:38.560 -->
00:06:39.279Explain that to me.
00:06:39.600 -->
00:06:41.120Imagine cruising through town.
00:06:41.279 -->
00:06:48.240Yeah, you glance up at one of those sleek high-tech police cameras, okay, and it's wearing a black garbage bag instead.
00:06:48.480 -->
00:06:52.000Okay, is that not broken, not removed, just covered up.
00:06:52.560 -->
00:06:54.160Like your leftovers.
00:06:54.399 -->
00:06:54.560Okay.
00:06:55.040 -->
00:07:04.399Welcome to Dayton, Ohio, where the cutting edge of surveillance technology is currently being defeated by something you can buy at a 7 Eleven.
00:07:04.800 -->
00:07:05.040Okay.
00:07:05.600 -->
00:07:09.360So why are city workers out there playing ghost costume with expensive equipment?
00:07:09.519 -->
00:07:25.519Because those cameras meant to track license plates for local law enforcement, are quietly sharing data with federal agencies like ICE, and yes, officials say it was accidental, which is always comforting, you know, like when you accidentally send a text to the wrong person.
00:07:25.680 -->
00:07:30.560Except in this case, it's millions of data points potentially feeding into a national database.
00:07:31.360 -->
00:07:39.600Turns out all it took was one misfigured setting, one little checkbox where uh somewhere deep in the menu nobody reads.
00:07:40.480 -->
00:07:46.079Now, where it goes from tech hiccup to you've got to be kidding me is when the city realized what was happening.
00:07:46.160 -->
00:07:49.839They tried to shut the cameras down, which is a logical move, right?
00:07:49.920 -->
00:07:50.959Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
00:07:51.439 -->
00:07:52.000But not.
00:07:53.040 -->
00:07:55.360Uh, because they don't actually own the cameras.
00:07:55.519 -->
00:07:56.160That's right.
00:07:56.399 -->
00:08:04.000The city pays for them, installs them, and depends on them, but control lights with the company that owns it.
00:08:04.399 -->
00:08:05.040Oh, really?
00:08:05.199 -->
00:08:07.120That's gotta be a pretty that's a good gig, right?
00:08:07.360 -->
00:08:08.240That's like twenty-three and me.
00:08:09.839 -->
00:08:14.319So removing them outright could mean contract penalties and a whole lot of legal headaches.
00:08:14.480 -->
00:08:19.040So basically the city found out it's living in its own house, but somebody else has a key.
00:08:19.360 -->
00:08:24.240So what do you do when you can't turn something off, you can't remove it easily, and you definitely don't want it running.
00:08:24.480 -->
00:08:25.839You improvise.
00:08:26.639 -->
00:08:29.279Okay, and then enter the trash bag.
00:08:29.439 -->
00:08:35.840So you're saying the most simplest idea here is forking technology today, a trash bag.
00:08:36.159 -->
00:08:41.440Officials literally started covering the cameras with black plastic bags to stop them from recording.
00:08:41.679 -->
00:08:44.879And honestly, there's something beautifully absurd about that.
00:08:46.000 -->
00:08:53.840All this advanced technology, AI systems automated tracking, real-time data, and the best countermeasure is putting a bag over your head.
00:08:54.559 -->
00:08:58.000Say kind of like the Cleveland Browns uh football team fans, I guess.
00:08:58.080 -->
00:09:00.879You know, they always put the case.
00:09:01.039 -->
00:09:04.240I don't know anything about that because I'm not a I'm not a big sports watcher person.
00:09:04.639 -->
00:09:05.039There you go.
00:09:05.120 -->
00:09:05.360All right.
00:09:05.519 -->
00:09:07.600Here's the part that should make everyone pause, though.
00:09:07.679 -->
00:09:15.759This isn't just one city, similar situations are popping up elsewhere, raising bigger questions about who really controls the technology embedded in our communities.
00:09:15.840 -->
00:09:26.480Because when a system meant to protect quietly turns into something else, and you need a household supplies to shut it down, well, it might be time to rethink who's actually in charge.
00:09:27.440 -->
00:09:31.919So then the lesson is simple in the battle between high-tech surveillance and low-tech solution.
00:09:32.159 -->
00:09:35.600Don't underestimate the power of a good old-fashioned trash bag.
00:09:35.919 -->
00:09:41.440So so there's cameras all across Ohio that now have black trash bags in them.
00:09:41.679 -->
00:09:44.799Now you're gonna have private citizens that are gonna go up and put it in.
00:09:46.559 -->
00:09:49.200You're now gonna create legislation that says you can't do that.
00:09:49.440 -->
00:09:50.559Story number three.
00:09:50.720 -->
00:09:51.360You know what?
00:09:51.519 -->
00:09:54.720I I just filled up my uh car for some gasoline here.
00:09:54.799 -->
00:09:57.200You know, uh guess what happened to the prices?
00:09:57.440 -->
00:10:00.879The prices was I think everybody knows what's happening to prices right now.
00:10:01.039 -->
00:10:01.519What is it?
00:10:01.600 -->
00:10:02.480They're they're going up.
00:10:02.639 -->
00:10:05.679They are going, they are they are hitting historical highs.
00:10:06.080 -->
00:10:06.720Historical highs.
00:10:06.799 -->
00:10:07.039You know what?
00:10:07.120 -->
00:10:12.000Well, so prices go up, prices go up, and prices go up, even into technology.
00:10:12.159 -->
00:10:12.559Wow.
00:10:12.639 -->
00:10:23.039After months of waiting, finally, gamers were excited to see the Valve's new sleek OLED Steam Deck, the brighter screen, better battery, and ultimate portable PC experience.
00:10:23.279 -->
00:10:26.000For many, it wasn't just a console, it was their dream device.
00:10:26.159 -->
00:10:27.440Is this your dream device?
00:10:27.679 -->
00:10:28.639Uh, I have one.
00:10:28.799 -->
00:10:32.240Well, but then I I let my one of my kids borrow it.
00:10:32.320 -->
00:10:38.879So I don't know if I do if if you let your kids borrow something, do you actually still have it or do you not have it?
00:10:39.039 -->
00:10:41.840I uh Mike, if you if what happens to that?
00:10:42.159 -->
00:10:45.279Well, I think it depends on whether or not your kid is an adult.
00:10:45.519 -->
00:10:50.879Okay, so if it's an adult if it's if it's still your kid, then you own the kid, so anything you give them, you own.
00:10:51.120 -->
00:10:52.879Okay, I I get you I get you that.
00:10:53.039 -->
00:10:55.679So if it's an adult, does that mean that they now own it?
00:10:55.919 -->
00:11:00.559Uh well, if you you know, if you're at beggars nor boroughs be that.
00:11:00.720 -->
00:11:00.960That's right.
00:11:01.039 -->
00:11:02.000Well, okay, well, here we go.
00:11:02.240 -->
00:11:03.440Guess what happens?
00:11:03.600 -->
00:11:05.039The price has gone up.
00:11:05.279 -->
00:11:11.440No, without a single new piece of hardware, Valve quietly raised the price by more than 40%.
00:11:12.240 -->
00:11:22.879Suddenly that 512 gigabyte model jumped from nearly$800, and the one terabyte version now is per is pushing closely to$950 to a grand.
00:11:23.120 -->
00:11:35.200The reason not a redesign, not a new feature, just the evolving backbone of tech, raising memory costs, supply chain pressure, and global surges in demands for the same components powered by these AI data centers.
00:11:35.600 -->
00:11:45.759See, the everybody wonders why I'm always complaining about AI, but nobody oh whines about it, and then then we come to this, right?
00:11:45.919 -->
00:11:52.639Well, a AI is becoming such the hot thing that now this is this is a good social experiment.
00:11:52.799 -->
00:12:03.840Yeah to see whether or not all these prices that are going up on all your tech is going to ruin the other sectors of tech industry while AI is ruining the the tech industry infrastructure.
00:12:04.480 -->
00:12:08.480Well, gaming PC definitely is competing with artificial intelligence for parts.
00:12:08.559 -->
00:12:14.879So now when you're talking about a new machine coming on out for a grand, it may now be fifteen hundred to two thousand dollars.
00:12:15.120 -->
00:12:18.080That's yes, that's so nobody nobody buys it.
00:12:18.480 -->
00:12:19.120I would hope.
00:12:19.360 -->
00:12:19.840I would hope.
00:12:19.919 -->
00:12:24.320Well, no, they're still Steam Deck is completely sold out, so you can't even buy one of these devices right now.
00:12:24.720 -->
00:12:27.440See, that's that's the I bought the cheaper early version.
00:12:27.519 -->
00:12:27.919I was the first.
00:12:28.480 -->
00:12:33.840Anybody ever wonders why some of these massively dumb things happen in America?
00:12:34.000 -->
00:12:34.399Yeah.
00:12:34.639 -->
00:12:35.440Or the world.
00:12:35.600 -->
00:12:36.159This is why.
00:12:36.399 -->
00:12:37.440Is it all just AI?
00:12:37.679 -->
00:12:39.120Because people will still buy it.
00:12:39.360 -->
00:12:40.000Okay, that's it.
00:12:40.080 -->
00:12:41.200That's the problem with it.
00:12:41.440 -->
00:12:41.840All right.
00:12:41.919 -->
00:12:42.559Well, guess what?
00:12:42.639 -->
00:12:44.559That ends our top technology stories of the week.
00:12:44.720 -->
00:12:50.879Next we have the game show, the sweeping the nation, where your listening audience can participate.

00:13:52.480 -->
00:13:54.320Welcome back to Tech Time with Nate the Mum.
00:13:54.480 -->
00:13:57.600Our weekly show covers the top technology subjects without any political agenda.
00:13:57.679 -->
00:14:02.480We verify the facts, we do with a sense of humor in less than 60 minutes, and of course, a little whiskey on the side.
00:14:02.559 -->
00:14:05.759Today, Mark Craig, our whiskey connoisseur, is not in the studio.
00:14:05.840 -->
00:14:11.759So Odie has helped picking up the Slack by connecting him across the whole pond.
00:14:11.840 -->
00:14:14.799Now he's over in Europe, so we do have our tasting.
00:14:14.879 -->
00:14:20.159So, Mark, explain to us what are we doing to the listeners and where are you at?
00:14:20.399 -->
00:14:22.480Yeah, what are we doing to the listeners?
00:14:22.799 -->
00:14:27.279Well, the listeners probably know more than you guys because listeners uh pay attention.
00:14:27.360 -->
00:14:27.600Okay.
00:14:28.159 -->
00:14:31.679Using the 2025 Flavor Whiskey Aven Calendar.
00:14:31.919 -->
00:14:35.20024 remarkable whiskeys used for our year-long blind.
00:14:35.600 -->
00:14:41.759So come along for the ride once a month as they uncover the new taste and train for the second year.
00:14:42.159 -->
00:14:43.519See if they can be too Cronus.
00:14:43.919 -->
00:14:46.799So today is round one, six of six.
00:14:46.960 -->
00:14:51.840So these are the final ones as we go through the first round of all the whiskeys.
00:14:52.320 -->
00:14:56.799And hopefully you can choose a winner together, because if not, I will be the your deciding vote.
00:14:57.120 -->
00:14:58.879You don't want me voting on today.
00:14:59.840 -->
00:15:02.559Today you're you're tasting single malts.
00:15:03.919 -->
00:15:08.080Uh mostly American, one from China, just to keep everyone honest.
00:15:08.320 -->
00:15:13.120This is a nice reminder that Scotland is no longer the only one allowed to play this game.
00:15:13.440 -->
00:15:26.799Now, while Scotch single malt whiskey was first documented back in 1494, American single malt whiskey only became an officially defined category, and the TDB finalized it January 2025.
00:15:27.360 -->
00:15:27.600Okay.
00:15:27.840 -->
00:15:36.000So tonight's lineup is a mix of old world history, new world ambition, and at least one poor that'll probably confuse somebody in the studio.
00:15:36.639 -->
00:15:38.080I'm already pointing to my own.
00:15:39.360 -->
00:15:40.559Yeah, Mike's like no.
00:15:40.720 -->
00:15:41.840And I'm like, oh, I like this one.
00:15:41.919 -->
00:15:43.279And Mike's like, yeah, no.
00:15:43.919 -->
00:15:44.240No.
00:15:44.559 -->
00:15:46.879So I must be, I don't must be the one that I shouldn't like.
00:15:46.960 -->
00:15:47.200Okay.
00:15:47.279 -->
00:15:47.519All right.
00:15:48.080 -->
00:15:50.000Where are you at over in Europe today?
00:15:50.639 -->
00:15:57.200Well, I'm still in Dijon, so I'll be in Dijon for the rest of the time until I uh end up back in the States in about a month.
00:15:57.519 -->
00:15:59.679Okay, I still need to set up uh an email.
00:15:59.759 -->
00:16:07.440I I had two listeners ask me if uh I had set up the email with you yet so you can go and visit a very nice stove factory, and I did not.
00:16:07.519 -->
00:16:10.399So I I need to make sure I do that before the end of today.
00:16:10.559 -->
00:16:12.799So look in your inbox, it'll be in there, Mark.
00:16:12.960 -->
00:16:14.399So all right.
00:16:14.639 -->
00:16:15.519All right, all right.
00:16:15.600 -->
00:16:16.000Yeah.
00:16:16.159 -->
00:16:21.279Also, don't forget to like and subscribe for our listeners and drink responsibly.
00:16:21.519 -->
00:16:22.399Evan can wait.
00:16:22.559 -->
00:16:27.600All right, Mark, you're gonna need to stay on for this part here, so don't you go anywhere because we got two truths and a lie.
00:16:27.840 -->
00:16:36.559So I'll tell you that I want to make sure that you know what's going on in, of course, the game that is sweeping the nation.
00:16:36.799 -->
00:16:40.399All right, with our whiskey tasting completed, let's move on to our feature segment.
00:16:40.480 -->
00:16:42.799Today, it's all about the game show.
00:16:42.960 -->
00:16:43.440You know what?
00:16:43.600 -->
00:16:45.759Two truths and a lie.
00:16:47.200 -->
00:16:50.799And now we have two truths and a lie.
00:16:52.080 -->
00:16:54.799All right, very simple on how we actually play this game.
00:16:54.960 -->
00:16:59.440This game is, I will read to you guys articles that I've printed off online.
00:16:59.679 -->
00:17:03.200Two of these stories are legit, and one of these stories is not.
00:17:03.360 -->
00:17:16.640Now, the one story that is not legit, use ChatGPT, OpenAI's newest model to create a story that would mimic a tech story that we are covering today.
00:17:16.799 -->
00:17:18.720All right, so let me uh go here.
00:17:18.960 -->
00:17:23.279Mark, make sure you're paying attention and listening to uh Peyton.
00:17:23.440 -->
00:17:24.480Welcome to the show.
00:17:24.559 -->
00:17:25.599You get to pay attention to this.
00:17:25.680 -->
00:17:29.440You and Odie have to decide together on which one of these stories is going to be here.
00:17:29.519 -->
00:17:34.880So, story number one Wi-Fi can now identify people without cameras and privacy.
00:17:35.039 -->
00:17:36.559Experts are alarmed.
00:17:36.799 -->
00:17:55.519A team of researchers in Germany have demonstrated a technology that sounds like it belongs in a spy movie, not a university lab, that is shown that ordinary home Wi-Fi routers, the same ones sitting in millions of living rooms, can identify who's in the room simply by analyzing how radio waves bounce off their body.
00:17:55.680 -->
00:17:59.920No cameras, no microphones, no special hardware, just the router you already own.
00:18:00.160 -->
00:18:06.720Here's how it works when the Wi-Fi signal travels through a room, they scatter off walls, furniture, and importantly, people.
00:18:06.960 -->
00:18:11.839The research team developed a machine learning model that studies these tiny distortions in the signal.
00:18:12.000 -->
00:18:20.640Over time, it learns the unique movement signatures of each person, the way their body shape is, and their micro motions affect how the radio waves bounce back.
00:18:20.720 -->
00:18:27.920In controlled tests, the researchers were nearly perfect on identifying accuracy even when people weren't moving that much.
00:18:28.160 -->
00:18:30.960What makes it so unbelievable is how passive it is.
00:18:31.039 -->
00:18:34.000You don't need to install anything, you don't need any permission.
00:18:34.240 -->
00:18:39.039If someone is inside the range of your Wi-Fi, the system can theoretically identify them.
00:18:39.279 -->
00:18:42.160So now privacy experts are sounding the alarms.
00:18:42.319 -->
00:18:45.920This warns them that this can turn into home router silence tracking.
00:18:46.079 -->
00:18:50.480This could be used by landlords, employers, and even governments or Batman.
00:18:50.640 -->
00:18:53.359Or Batman without without people ever knowing.
00:18:54.079 -->
00:19:01.839Supporters urge that this could be used for elderly care monitoring, fall detection, or security systems that don't rely on cameras.
00:19:02.000 -->
00:19:06.000Critics say it opens the door to a whole new era of invisible surveillance.
00:19:06.319 -->
00:19:10.400Story number one Wi-Fi can now identify people without cameras.
00:19:14.240 -->
00:19:16.480I think that comes right out of the dark night.
00:19:17.359 -->
00:19:18.880Right out of the dark night movie itself?
00:19:19.279 -->
00:19:19.920Okay, here you go.
00:19:20.000 -->
00:19:20.720Story number two.
00:19:21.279 -->
00:19:24.160AI is not friendly in the skies yet.
00:19:24.960 -->
00:19:43.920Western uh Shuan Regional Airlines, a small commuter carrier based in China, suspended its AI assisted flight program after an autonomous autopilot module made an unexpected altitude change in a short hop.
00:19:44.240 -->
00:20:00.400The AI system developed by Shezing Robotics from Aeromine Systems briefly misinterpreted weather radar returns as a micro burst thrust, prompting a rapid climb that triggered the TCAS alert system for the nearby jet.
00:20:00.640 -->
00:20:05.839Pilots immediately took manual control and the aircraft aircraft landed safely.
00:20:06.000 -->
00:20:20.960China's civil aviation administration ordered the airline halt all AI supported flights while investigators analyzed flight data logs and the AI sensor fusion stack, which blends radar, ADSB, and terrain prediction input models.
00:20:21.200 -->
00:20:29.759Aero Mine Engineers says the issues stem from a rare conflict between the aircraft's older Honeywell radar unit and the AI's predictive weather model.
00:20:29.920 -->
00:20:37.519The airline has logged more than 200 supervised hours with the system and helps reduce fuel burn and short uh haul turboprop routes.
00:20:37.680 -->
00:20:45.279Western Shiz Shizin was temporarily reverted to standard autopilot systems while Airmine prepares a software patch.
00:20:45.440 -->
00:20:50.160At all times there is a pilot on board, so no one was ever in jeopardy.
00:20:51.440 -->
00:20:51.759Okay.
00:20:52.480 -->
00:20:53.519That's story number two.
00:20:54.319 -->
00:20:55.119Story number three.
00:20:55.279 -->
00:20:58.720Scientists build a living AI computer using human brain cells.
00:20:59.039 -->
00:21:02.240And a breakthrough that sounds like a plot from a futuristic thriller.
00:21:02.559 -->
00:21:10.079Scientists have successfully created a working AI system built from living human neurons combined with electric circuits.
00:21:10.240 -->
00:21:19.920The hybrid device, part biological, part silicone, can learn, adapt, and recognize patterns, making it the first real steps towards what researchers call biocomputing.
00:21:20.960 -->
00:21:26.240It isn't a brain, it's not a consciousness, but it's a biological computing device and how it works.
00:21:26.400 -->
00:21:32.880Scientists say this could lead to ultra-efficient AI hardware that uses fraction of the power required by today's GPUs.
00:21:33.039 -->
00:21:40.880Instead of massive data centers and megawatts of electricity, future AI systems could rely on tiny clusters of the living cells that they learn naturally.
00:21:41.200 -->
00:21:43.039Now, here's what makes it extraordinary.
00:21:43.279 -->
00:21:45.519Human neurons are incredibly efficient.
00:21:45.599 -->
00:21:49.599They can perform complex operations using only tiniest amounts of energy.
00:21:49.759 -->
00:21:59.759By growing a small cluster of neurons on a specialized chip, researchers were able to train the cells to respond to electrical signals, strengthening certain pathways and essentially learning in real time.
00:22:00.160 -->
00:22:00.319Time.
00:22:00.400 -->
00:22:09.039In an early test, the living AI could distinguish between difference of electrical patterns and improve its like accuracy and electricity the more it was trained.
00:22:09.279 -->
00:22:10.559Alright, so we got three AI.
00:22:11.680 -->
00:22:19.119So this time today's today's Nathan choices are Wi-Fi can identify cameras.
00:22:20.880 -->
00:22:21.200Okay.
00:22:22.000 -->
00:22:25.119Uh AI is not friendly in the sky.
00:22:25.599 -->
00:22:26.240Cyborg.
00:22:26.720 -->
00:22:27.039Okay.
00:22:28.400 -->
00:22:30.720And normal, normal AI problems.
00:22:30.880 -->
00:22:32.079And normal AI problems.
00:22:32.240 -->
00:22:35.920So we got two fantastic stories and one non-fantastic story.
00:22:36.160 -->
00:22:36.480Okay.
00:22:36.799 -->
00:22:37.119Okay.
00:22:37.839 -->
00:22:40.240So what it what is what what are you going with here, Mike?
00:22:41.039 -->
00:22:42.880I'm not gonna make a decision right yet.
00:22:43.119 -->
00:22:43.599Okay, Mark.
00:22:44.559 -->
00:22:45.359Coyote says.
00:22:45.519 -->
00:22:46.640Uh let's go to Mark, all right.
00:22:46.720 -->
00:22:48.240Mark, that you you've been listening to this.
00:22:48.400 -->
00:22:49.440Mark, what do you think?
00:22:49.680 -->
00:22:50.720Uh let's see.
00:22:50.960 -->
00:22:53.039That was a good example for the bat phones.
00:22:53.119 -->
00:22:54.960I was thinking dolphins for the first one.
00:22:55.279 -->
00:22:56.160Okay, okay, okay.
00:22:56.559 -->
00:22:57.039Wi-Fi.
00:22:57.279 -->
00:22:57.599All right.
00:22:57.759 -->
00:22:59.200And and I like that one.
00:22:59.440 -->
00:23:02.319AI from Living Cells seems crazy.
00:23:02.559 -->
00:23:05.759So I'm gonna go with the middle one, the one with the AI in the sky.
00:23:06.000 -->
00:23:07.680You're gonna go with AI and the sky is fake.
00:23:07.759 -->
00:23:18.880Okay, that's that's kind of the my logic when I'm dealing with Nathan's story, is to pick the two that sounds like Nathan, and then the one that's not Nathan is the one that's false.
00:23:19.119 -->
00:23:20.559Okay, okay, all right, okay.
00:23:20.640 -->
00:23:22.559So you're going with AI not in the sky, too, then, Mike?
00:23:22.960 -->
00:23:23.839No, I didn't I didn't say that.
00:23:23.920 -->
00:23:26.079I'm just saying that's how I usually the game.
00:23:26.319 -->
00:23:27.599That's the game.
00:23:27.680 -->
00:23:28.640No, the game is the story.
00:23:29.039 -->
00:23:30.240The game is how does Nathan think?
00:23:30.400 -->
00:23:31.279How does Nathan think?
00:23:31.599 -->
00:23:36.480For anybody playing at home, you're just supposed to pick out the one story that it's not correct.
00:23:36.720 -->
00:23:38.000All right, we're gonna go to Peyton.
00:23:38.160 -->
00:23:39.200Peyton and Odie, what do you think?
00:23:39.440 -->
00:23:40.240Nodi's shaking her head.
00:23:40.480 -->
00:23:42.400What do you what are you guys thinking on your guys' board here?
00:23:42.480 -->
00:23:43.519What do you what do you guys have?
00:23:43.759 -->
00:23:44.880I'm thinking the second one.
00:23:44.960 -->
00:23:46.319You couldn't pronounce any of the words.
00:23:46.480 -->
00:23:47.200Uh any of the words?
00:23:47.279 -->
00:23:48.240The AI is not friendly.
00:23:48.400 -->
00:23:49.440Yeah, the AI is not friendly.
00:23:49.680 -->
00:23:51.279Okay, that just seems a little extreme.
00:23:51.839 -->
00:23:52.079Okay.
00:23:52.240 -->
00:23:52.640I don't know.
00:23:52.799 -->
00:23:53.039Okay.
00:23:54.240 -->
00:23:57.839It's also an anti-AI story, which is not Nathan.
00:23:58.160 -->
00:23:58.799That's true.
00:23:58.960 -->
00:24:01.839So see how this is how we come to our conclusions.
00:24:02.079 -->
00:24:03.680Okay, so this is the psychology of it.
00:24:04.079 -->
00:24:06.640Okay, so you're going with the AI in the skies, too.
00:24:06.799 -->
00:24:07.039Okay.
00:24:07.359 -->
00:24:09.440I don't like the little gleam in your eye that you got.
00:24:09.759 -->
00:24:10.799Well, what are you gonna choose?
00:24:10.960 -->
00:24:11.359Okay, hold on.
00:24:11.680 -->
00:24:12.960I think you should choose that one too.
00:24:13.039 -->
00:24:14.079It'd just be a sweep.
00:24:14.319 -->
00:24:16.160Uh no, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna do that.
00:24:16.640 -->
00:24:16.880Which one?
00:24:17.039 -->
00:24:18.880Okay, I okay, wait a second.
00:24:19.200 -->
00:24:20.240You just choose one.
00:24:20.559 -->
00:24:20.880I can't.
00:24:21.200 -->
00:24:22.720Which story has sounded the fake?
00:24:22.799 -->
00:24:23.119That's it.
00:24:23.440 -->
00:24:24.160They all sound fake.
00:24:24.640 -->
00:24:25.599I want them all to be fake.
00:24:25.920 -->
00:24:26.079Okay.
00:24:26.240 -->
00:24:27.680All right, so how this works.
00:24:28.240 -->
00:24:29.200Two or true.
00:24:29.440 -->
00:24:31.039I think the first one is the fake one.
00:24:31.200 -->
00:24:32.400Yeah, it's either the first or the second one.
00:24:32.720 -->
00:24:33.920The Wi-Fi can't identify people.
00:24:34.160 -->
00:24:38.079Yeah, the Wi-Fi being able to identify you by radio waves.
00:24:38.160 -->
00:24:43.200I'd maybe identify me with my phone and what I search on the internet, but by radio waves.
00:24:43.680 -->
00:24:44.240Okay, all right.
00:24:44.640 -->
00:24:45.440I'm so I'm gonna go with that.
00:24:45.680 -->
00:24:51.759That one sounded the the most real to me because that that that's that technology sounds that technology sounds so possible, though.
00:24:52.079 -->
00:24:53.519Okay, well, that's that's the problem.
00:24:53.759 -->
00:24:54.799It all sounds possible.
00:24:55.119 -->
00:25:02.240You know, and I know I know that we're trying to make cyborgs sounds as much as build a living computer, AI computer using human brain cells.
00:25:02.400 -->
00:25:03.920Nobody choose that one.
00:25:04.079 -->
00:25:06.240All right, that's the most outlandish one.
00:25:06.319 -->
00:25:07.440That surely can't be true.
00:25:07.759 -->
00:25:10.720That surely can't surely stop calling me surely that is true.
00:25:10.880 -->
00:25:17.119Sciences are building a living AI computer with uh the ability of human neurons to add to electronic circuits.
00:25:17.200 -->
00:25:21.680So now it comes down to AI in the skies, and Wi-Fi can identify people.
00:25:22.000 -->
00:25:27.119Well, let me just tell you, Wi-Fi can now identify people without cameras, and privacy experts are alarmed.
00:25:27.279 -->
00:25:28.160It is true.
00:25:28.400 -->
00:25:29.039Absolutely.
00:25:29.200 -->
00:25:30.799This is fully in place right now.
00:25:30.880 -->
00:25:32.559Wi-Fi does more than you think.
00:25:32.799 -->
00:25:40.000It can clearly identify everybody in a room, size uh of the person, and identify it taken care of.
00:25:40.160 -->
00:25:45.599So the incorrect in the false story was AI is not friendly in the skies yet.
00:25:45.839 -->
00:25:47.200Arrow mine systems.
00:25:47.279 -->
00:25:49.759You know what happens when you chat GPT write stuff?
00:25:49.839 -->
00:25:53.440They actually put all these freaking names in here that you can't read.
00:25:53.519 -->
00:25:55.119I didn't and I didn't pre-read it to say that.
00:25:55.279 -->
00:25:57.279No, that's not that's not how it works, man.
00:25:57.359 -->
00:26:03.119It it works because now I know that I chose the wrong one, but I did it, I did it to, you know, make a point.
00:26:03.359 -->
00:26:03.680Okay.
00:26:04.400 -->
00:26:09.200That I already identified the the wrong the right one earlier on.
00:26:09.359 -->
00:26:09.680Yeah.
00:26:09.839 -->
00:26:13.200And then they identified it the right one earlier because we all know how you think.
00:26:13.359 -->
00:26:13.920Okay, there you go.
00:26:14.079 -->
00:26:16.240AI is not yet in the skies, but you know what?
00:26:16.400 -->
00:26:21.759The story does come from a basis of truth where they are now currently testing that with pilots.
00:26:21.920 -->
00:26:26.960Uh and they had this problem, but it is not fully developed or have been implemented at this time.
00:26:27.039 -->
00:26:30.240So it's a false slash, they're working on it type of thing.
00:26:30.559 -->
00:26:34.079All right, no, we're all about AI, so let's move on to our next segment.
00:26:34.240 -->
00:26:38.079Now, Mike, I know that you're so excited about Mike the AI guy song.
00:26:38.160 -->
00:26:44.240We have the full version that you've asked to play here so we can listen to it to bring you into this segment.
00:26:47.599 -->
00:28:34.480We have the grumpiest guy in the world coming up! Somebody still got an iPhone! All right.
00:28:34.720 -->
00:28:35.119Yeah.
00:28:35.599 -->
00:28:35.920All right.
00:28:36.160 -->
00:28:37.839What do you got for us, Mike?
00:28:38.240 -->
00:28:40.400Well, you know.
00:28:41.359 -->
00:28:42.640It's AI stuff.
00:28:42.799 -->
00:28:43.200Yep.
00:28:43.359 -->
00:28:46.880What do you think the hardest things to say in English is three words?
00:28:47.119 -->
00:28:47.920The hardest thing to say.
00:28:48.559 -->
00:28:52.400What do you think the three words are hard that people find hardest to say?
00:28:52.559 -->
00:28:55.119I I I know the I'm sorry.
00:28:55.359 -->
00:28:55.920I am sorry.
00:28:56.160 -->
00:28:56.720I'm sorry.
00:28:56.960 -->
00:28:57.440I am sorry.
00:28:57.519 -->
00:28:58.799That is Or I love you.
00:28:58.960 -->
00:28:59.519Or I love you.
00:28:59.680 -->
00:29:00.960Yeah, no, it's I don't know.
00:29:01.119 -->
00:29:02.720I I am sorry, I love you.
00:29:03.039 -->
00:29:05.200I am sorry, and I love you.
00:29:05.279 -->
00:29:05.440Okay.
00:29:05.680 -->
00:29:06.799No, no, no, never mind.
00:29:07.039 -->
00:29:08.799For AI is I don't know.
00:29:08.960 -->
00:29:09.119Okay.
00:29:09.519 -->
00:29:10.160I don't know.
00:29:10.400 -->
00:29:10.799All right.
00:29:10.960 -->
00:29:11.519Right?
00:29:11.839 -->
00:29:21.759So all the geniuses, all those ultra geniuses that are trying to make I AI more human have finally gotten it to admit the the those three words.
00:29:22.240 -->
00:29:23.920So it's no longer hallucinating then.
00:29:24.240 -->
00:29:27.359Uh well, that I don't think that's true either.
00:29:27.599 -->
00:29:28.160Okay, all right.
00:29:28.400 -->
00:29:37.599Anthropic just rolled out Claude Opus 4.8, and the biggest upgrade isn't that it's faster or smarter, it's finally able to stop pretending it knows everything.
00:29:37.839 -->
00:29:41.359So instead of being a know-it-all, it's not a know-it-all anymore.
00:29:41.599 -->
00:29:41.839Okay.
00:29:42.319 -->
00:29:50.000Because let's be honest, AI up until now has been like that one friend who answers every question with confidence and is wrong about half of them.
00:29:50.319 -->
00:29:50.480Okay.
00:29:50.799 -->
00:29:51.039Right?
00:29:51.200 -->
00:29:53.839Yeah, that was back that that must have been me back in high school.
00:29:54.400 -->
00:29:55.119That's you now.
00:29:55.519 -->
00:29:56.319That's me now.
00:29:56.720 -->
00:29:58.160Oh wow, all of you guys said that.
00:29:58.240 -->
00:29:58.720Wow, okay.
00:29:58.880 -->
00:29:59.039Yeah.
00:29:59.200 -->
00:29:59.519All right.
00:29:59.759 -->
00:30:07.599You ask it something complicated and it goes, yeah, absolutely, and then it uh just invents an answer, like it's writing fanfiction, right?
00:30:08.160 -->
00:30:12.160But this new version actually pauses and says, Yeah, I've got nothing.
00:30:13.039 -->
00:30:15.680And believe it or not, that might be a breakthrough.
00:30:16.160 -->
00:30:20.960It's scoring near perfect on honesty tests, which I'm not sure how they apply that.
00:30:21.279 -->
00:30:29.920Meaning instead of making things up, it just admits when it doesn't have an answer, which is wild because now the smartest thing AI can do is know when it's not that smart.
00:30:30.559 -->
00:30:37.680So after years of trying to make machines sound more human, we finally taught them the one thing humans struggle with the most, admitting that they don't know everything.
00:30:37.839 -->
00:30:39.359That and that's true.
00:30:39.599 -->
00:30:39.759Okay.
00:30:40.240 -->
00:30:42.640We we never want to admit that we don't have an answer.
00:30:42.880 -->
00:30:43.440That is true.
00:30:45.119 -->
00:30:46.640Remember that TV show Lie to Me?
00:30:47.440 -->
00:30:49.599That is one of my favorite shows ever.
00:30:50.319 -->
00:30:55.680I studied I studied all that stuff in my in my uh education track.
00:30:56.000 -->
00:30:57.920The biggest thing is is just to be silent.
00:30:58.720 -->
00:31:00.000No, if you're silent, right?
00:31:00.160 -->
00:31:01.200Then you let the micro.
00:31:01.599 -->
00:31:02.079No, no?
00:31:02.319 -->
00:31:02.960No, no.
00:31:03.440 -->
00:31:07.839I thought you'd ask a question and then just be silent, and then the person would like tell all the information.
00:31:08.079 -->
00:31:14.799Now, are you talking about me as the the in interrogator being silent, or you as the person being asked a question?
00:31:15.119 -->
00:31:18.319No, the integrity and the person that's asking the questions.
00:31:18.559 -->
00:31:20.079Yeah, they need to watch what's going on.
00:31:20.400 -->
00:31:20.880Okay, okay.
00:31:20.960 -->
00:31:21.200All right.
00:31:21.440 -->
00:31:25.119But that has nothing to do with how AI is going to be telling you know it's gonna happen now.
00:31:25.440 -->
00:31:25.839What's that?
00:31:26.400 -->
00:31:27.839It's gonna overcorrect.
00:31:28.319 -->
00:31:28.880What does that mean?
00:31:29.519 -->
00:31:34.799That means now it's going to instead of give answers, it's gonna it's just gonna tell you I don't know all the time.
00:31:35.200 -->
00:31:37.359It's gonna be honest that it's gonna take over the world.
00:31:38.319 -->
00:31:38.720Yeah.
00:31:39.119 -->
00:31:41.200You I I think that might be a good thing.
00:31:41.519 -->
00:31:44.880Are you are you is AI planning to take over the world?
00:31:45.119 -->
00:31:46.720Uh I don't know.
00:31:47.279 -->
00:31:51.279So that's just gonna be everything's gonna be.
00:31:51.599 -->
00:31:51.920I don't know.
00:31:52.000 -->
00:31:57.759I I don't I like I said when we talked about this, um, you know, I stump Alexa all the time.
00:31:58.319 -->
00:32:01.759You know, I'll ask it a question and Alexa's like, well, I don't know that.
00:32:02.000 -->
00:32:06.160Your your Alexa's really personalized to you because we were we're we were doing that on our prep show.
00:32:06.559 -->
00:32:11.039I was I was trying to I was trying to ask it questions and it wouldn't do the same stuff that my Alexa does.
00:32:11.839 -->
00:32:12.079No.
00:32:14.079 -->
00:32:16.240Your Alexa is a lot more liberal than mine.
00:32:16.480 -->
00:32:17.599That's exactly correct.
00:32:17.759 -->
00:32:18.880All right, okay.
00:32:19.440 -->
00:32:33.759So yeah, so uh now you might be getting uh I don't know's from from your chat GPT, along with all the other stuff that programmers have disallowed your your AI to do, right?
00:32:34.079 -->
00:32:36.480No, you can't get your you cannot get your Alexa to swear.
00:32:36.720 -->
00:32:39.759You can't get my Alexa yeah, I can't get Alexa to swear.
00:32:40.000 -->
00:32:47.200It can't count to 200 or 100, it can't answer direct questions about certain things.
00:32:47.599 -->
00:32:49.759But it can sure sell Duracell batteries.
00:32:50.000 -->
00:32:50.720Uh it'll tell you.
00:32:50.960 -->
00:32:58.160Yeah, it'll it'll tell me all kinds of Amazon purchases that I need to get, but it it will not, it will so this is the problem with this stuff.
00:32:58.240 -->
00:33:14.720I this is why I complain about this stuff is that we we are creating this electronic Frankenstein that people are going to trust because our brains work like that, and I don't care what you program it to do, it's still going to give you false information.
00:33:15.359 -->
00:33:17.519And now Clyde will just tell you that it doesn't know.
00:33:17.839 -->
00:33:24.559Yeah, it'll it'll tell you it doesn't know while it's entering into your into your own computer system and finding all the security holes to breach.
00:33:24.960 -->
00:33:28.960You know, the only thing that could be worse is if it kept on asking you why.
00:33:29.759 -->

00:36:18.800 -->
00:36:20.079That's that simple.
00:36:21.519 -->
00:36:27.119And now, let's look back at this week in technology.
00:36:28.079 -->
00:36:30.880All right, we're gonna go to June 7th, 2000.
00:36:31.119 -->
00:36:33.840The decision to not split up Microsoft.
00:36:34.000 -->
00:36:37.920A judge made a decision that could have completely reshaped the tech world as we know it.
00:36:38.000 -->
00:36:45.119Now, the federal court order was to have Microsoft be split into two separate companies, one for Windows and one for everything else.
00:36:45.440 -->
00:36:55.199Sounds huge because it was at the time Microsoft was accused of crushing competition, especially Nextcape, by building its Internet Explorer into Windows itself.
00:36:55.920 -->
00:36:58.239But here's what most people don't know.
00:36:59.039 -->
00:37:07.519Now the breakup plan was modeled after the ATT split in the nineteen eighties, where regulatories thought that they should reset the tech industry the same way.
00:37:08.239 -->
00:37:21.039The judge in the case was literally later criticized for talking to reporters during the trial, which actually hoped Microsoft win its appeal, as reporters would actually explain the technology to the judge and how it worked.
00:37:21.519 -->
00:37:30.719And perhaps most interesting, many historians believe that just the threat of breaking up Microsoft opened the door for future competitors, including uh Google.
00:37:31.440 -->
00:37:32.800In the end, the breakup never happened.
00:37:32.880 -->
00:37:36.880Microsoft stayed intact, paid penalties, and agreed to share some of its technology.
00:37:37.039 -->
00:37:42.159But for a moment in 2000, the biggest company in tech almost became two.
00:37:42.639 -->
00:37:45.760And the entire history of Silicon Valley would have changed.
00:37:46.000 -->
00:37:49.360And that's after after the world was supposed to end.
00:37:49.599 -->
00:37:51.039Uh the Y2K.
00:37:51.119 -->
00:37:51.440That's correct.
00:37:52.800 -->
00:37:54.159That was this week in Technology.
00:37:54.239 -->

00:38:55.760No.
00:38:56.320 -->
00:39:03.519We're celebrating uh some type of single barrel something something in France.
00:39:03.679 -->
00:39:04.079What?
00:39:04.320 -->
00:39:05.840No, no, it's national.
00:39:06.079 -->
00:39:08.079I love my dentist day.
00:39:08.400 -->
00:39:09.519Oh, okay.
00:39:09.679 -->
00:39:11.920Wow, that's gotta be the weakest day ever.
00:39:12.400 -->
00:39:12.719Yeah.
00:39:12.880 -->
00:39:14.239So let me tell you.
00:39:14.800 -->
00:39:15.280I don't care.
00:39:15.519 -->
00:39:15.920No, no.
00:39:16.000 -->
00:39:17.119Listen, listen, Mike.
00:39:17.280 -->
00:39:18.320Check it out.
00:39:18.800 -->
00:39:28.000So today is I Love My Dentist Day, which is a way of thanking the people who spend their days poking around in your mouth, and then somehow still ask you if you've been flossing.
00:39:28.400 -->
00:39:30.000As if they don't know the answer.
00:39:30.559 -->
00:39:33.360Help brighten your teeth and make you smile, Mike.
00:39:36.960 -->
00:39:39.599I know, uh I can't help that.
00:39:41.599 -->
00:39:42.880Mark's haircut is just so.
00:39:44.079 -->
00:39:45.440He looks like Bull from Night Corps.
00:39:45.760 -->
00:39:46.239I know he does.
00:39:46.559 -->
00:39:47.360Sitting there right now.
00:39:47.519 -->
00:39:48.079Continue and on.
00:39:48.239 -->
00:39:49.039Mark, sorry about that.
00:39:50.239 -->
00:39:51.199Earliest minute Yeah.
00:39:51.280 -->
00:39:58.719So dentistry was dates back as a profession, back to the Indus Valley civilization around 7,000 BC.
00:39:59.039 -->
00:40:03.280Now by 5,000 BC, people were blaming tooth decay on tooth worms.
00:40:03.840 -->
00:40:07.199A theory that lasted until the 1700s.
00:40:07.840 -->
00:40:13.679Now ridiculous, yes, but somehow less upsetting than hearing your dentist say you're gonna need a crown.
00:40:13.920 -->
00:40:14.960Boom boom boom.
00:40:15.679 -->
00:40:16.880Was that supposed to be funny?
00:40:17.119 -->
00:40:17.360I don't know.
00:40:18.079 -->
00:40:21.119It made Odin laugh, but I don't think it was because of the joke.
00:40:21.360 -->
00:40:24.719All right, let's move from the dentist chair to the whiskey table then.
00:40:25.199 -->
00:40:29.920Today's four single malts have me thinking a root canal might actually be a better option.
00:40:30.079 -->
00:40:30.559Yeah, this problem.
00:40:30.960 -->
00:40:36.559Particularly if it meant avoiding the pores in studio with and listening to you guys' nonsense and hot takes.
00:40:37.039 -->
00:40:37.920I don't know.
00:40:38.079 -->
00:40:39.599But I'll tell you what you're drinking.
00:40:39.840 -->
00:40:40.159Okay.
00:40:40.400 -->
00:40:40.639Okay.
00:40:40.800 -->
00:40:45.440And this and this is in no particular order because I you'll have to tell me later which numbers in which glass.
00:40:45.760 -->
00:40:47.760Well, wait, wait, wait, wait, we go up by height, right?
00:40:47.840 -->
00:40:51.920So this is 12, 13, 16, and 20 on the pole.
00:40:52.079 -->
00:40:53.199So I did up by glasses.
00:40:53.360 -->
00:40:53.920That doesn't help me.
00:40:54.000 -->
00:40:58.960You're you're gonna have to I can't quite see your individual glasses, so you're gonna have to you'll have to tell me after.
00:40:59.280 -->
00:41:00.320Okay, we'll tell you which number.
00:41:00.480 -->
00:41:02.239We'll tell you which number we select.
00:41:02.880 -->
00:41:03.440All right.
00:41:03.599 -->
00:41:10.639So you were drinking today, one of them is Lodestar American Whiskey, which is distilled with different distillers in Indiana.
00:41:10.800 -->
00:41:13.440It's an American whiskey, non-H-stated, 90-proof.
00:41:13.519 -->
00:41:18.639It's a blend of a 70% high rye bourbon and a 30% American single malt.
00:41:18.880 -->
00:41:20.079It goes for$35.
00:41:21.519 -->
00:41:23.119That's probably the Nathan pick.
00:41:24.559 -->
00:41:32.559Then we move on to High Seas San Oaks Chinese Whiskey, the black label, which is made in Shanghai, China.
00:41:32.639 -->
00:41:40.639It's a single malt whiskey, non-age dated, 84 proof, 100% Chinese grains, I'm assuming malted barley,$75.
00:41:41.840 -->
00:41:47.679Then we move up to Westward Whiskey, Stout Cask American Single Malt Whiskey.
00:41:47.920 -->
00:41:50.079This is distilled in Portland, Oregon.
00:41:50.159 -->
00:41:57.280It's an American single malt, six years old, 92 proof, 100% Oregon malted barley, and that's$97.
00:41:58.719 -->
00:42:09.119And then we go to the final one, which is Courage and Conviction, Double Cash Reserve American Single Malt Whiskey from the Virginia Distilling Company in Livingston, Virginia.
00:42:09.360 -->
00:42:14.400American single malt, five years, 96 proof, 100% malted barley,$108.
00:42:15.760 -->

00:42:23.840 -->
00:42:25.440I can already tell you which one I'm liking.
00:42:25.519 -->

00:42:36.960I added, yeah, number 12.
00:42:37.119 -->
00:42:38.960Number 12 is like a thumbs down.
00:42:39.199 -->
00:42:39.360Yeah.
00:42:39.679 -->
00:42:41.840And 13 is the thumbs down for Nathan.

00:43:06.639 -->
00:43:12.000This week's technology fail goes back to last week's Big Bang Theory.
00:43:13.119 -->
00:43:14.880Alright, for poor Blue Origin.
00:43:15.039 -->
00:43:18.639Blue Origin's new Glenn Rocket exploded during a ground test.
00:43:19.199 -->
00:43:20.079We saw this video.
00:43:20.400 -->
00:43:23.280Man, this was just huge.
00:43:23.760 -->
00:43:36.000Last week at Cape Canaveral Cape Canaveral in Florida, the company was performing a routine static fire test, lighting the engines while the rocket stayed on the pad, but instead of a clean run, the rocket detonated.
00:43:36.559 -->
00:43:37.840This wasn't minor either.
00:43:37.920 -->
00:43:44.239The vehicle was fully fueled, making it one of the largest rocket explosions in recent U.S.
00:43:44.320 -->
00:43:44.800history.
00:43:44.880 -->
00:43:47.519And the worst failure Blue Origin has faced.
00:43:47.679 -->
00:43:50.000The good news, I guess, all personnel are safe.
00:43:50.159 -->
00:43:51.519There's no injuries reported.
00:43:51.599 -->
00:43:57.119The bad news this likely delays the new Glenn program, which is key for Amazon satellite launches.
00:43:57.360 -->
00:44:00.880NASA's moon mission and the completion of Space X.
00:44:01.920 -->
00:44:07.280Now, Blue Origin is calling it an anomaly and says that we got a lot to figure out.
00:44:07.440 -->
00:44:12.719All while Elon Musk puts it, rockets are hard, and right now they just got a lot harder.
00:44:12.880 -->
00:44:14.800That's exactly what he posted online.
00:44:15.760 -->
00:44:15.920Okay.
00:44:16.320 -->
00:44:16.960Thanks, Elon.
00:44:17.199 -->
00:44:17.599There you go.
00:44:17.679 -->
00:44:18.400So uh this is a good thing.
00:44:18.559 -->
00:44:26.719That makes me feel good that you're a sad thing because having this actually happen means that now Amazon is behind in the whole process.
00:44:26.960 -->
00:44:30.639And Elon Musk is just sitting there enjoying life as it is.
00:44:30.960 -->
00:44:32.880Yeah, we're not one step closer to Wally.
00:44:33.360 -->
00:44:33.840That's right.
00:44:33.920 -->
00:44:34.239All right.
00:44:34.320 -->
00:44:36.239And you know what now we need to move into?
00:44:36.559 -->
00:44:38.159Our Nathan Nugget.
00:44:39.599 -->
00:44:42.480This is your nugget of the week.
00:44:43.199 -->
00:44:44.400Okay, guess what?
00:44:44.800 -->
00:44:47.119Our nugget is going to be a very interesting segment.
00:44:47.280 -->
00:44:53.760And the SpaceX, do you know SpaceX Bitcoin stash is bigger than anyone thought.
00:44:54.559 -->
00:45:06.880Now, in a paperwork that was filed with the SEC, it turns out the SpaceX is the largest pile of Bitcoin in any company in the world.
00:45:07.039 -->
00:45:12.800The company officially disclosed that it had 18,712 Bitcoin.
00:45:13.440 -->
00:45:17.440Roughly 1.45 billion dollars in today's prices.
00:45:18.000 -->
00:45:26.079Until now, Bitcoin sluice thought SpaceX had closer to about 8,000 co uh total coins, but they were completely off.
00:45:26.239 -->
00:45:35.599SpaceX reportedly built this position back in 2021 during the pandemic crypto boom, spending about six hundred and sixty-one million dollars.
00:45:35.920 -->
00:45:42.159The stash shored all the way up to nine hundred and fifty-five million on paper in 2024.
00:45:42.320 -->
00:45:51.360And then it dipped again into the 112 million unrealized losses in 2025, but still sits comfortably in the green today.
00:45:52.400 -->
00:46:04.800Once the SpaceX IPO hits, the company will instantly become the seventh largest corporate Bitcoin holder, even outranking Coinbase by more than 2,000 coins.
00:46:04.880 -->
00:46:08.480Now, Coinbase is the stock symbol that you trade your cryptocurrency.
00:46:08.559 -->
00:46:17.280As we see in the studio, we have a a ticker that goes on up there with uh coins and and everything in both crypto and stock market that we look at during the show.
00:46:17.519 -->
00:46:24.239It's interesting to see that this rocket company has a significant uh area of Bitcoin.
00:46:25.039 -->
00:46:29.599Now Tesla also holds eleven thousand five hundred and nine bitcoins.
00:46:29.679 -->
00:46:30.880So let's just pay attention here.
00:46:31.199 -->
00:46:32.880Tesla has eleven thousand.
00:46:33.199 -->
00:46:42.960And if we go and we take a look at how much SpaceX has, um they are number one and almost number two in bitcoins that are there.
00:46:43.119 -->
00:46:50.960So Elon Musk has bitcoins in both of his companies that he has significant value in so let me ask you a question.
00:46:51.119 -->
00:46:51.519Yeah.
00:46:51.920 -->
00:46:59.679Several years ago, Elon famously went on Saturday Night Live and said it's a hustle.
00:46:59.920 -->
00:47:02.239Well, that I think that was kind of about Dodge.
00:47:02.559 -->
00:47:03.840Remember, he created his own swing.
00:47:04.159 -->
00:47:04.400Yes.
00:47:04.559 -->
00:47:11.760But do you think that Doge has something to do with how they acquired all this Bitcoin?
00:47:12.000 -->
00:47:12.639Well, I I don't know.
00:47:12.800 -->
00:47:13.119You know what?
00:47:13.199 -->
00:47:15.599He could because we don't know how much Doge he had.
00:47:15.760 -->
00:47:19.360And right now it's uh I just saw the ticker go across there.
00:47:19.440 -->
00:47:22.239It's trading for about 10 cents a Dodge coin.
00:47:22.320 -->
00:47:26.719During the Saturday night debut, and when he was on Saturday night, it bumped all the way up to a dollar.
00:47:26.880 -->
00:47:27.039Yeah.
00:47:27.119 -->
00:47:27.679So do you think that's a good thing?
00:47:27.840 -->
00:47:32.800So he's on he's on a national, he's on a national TV show and he says it's a hustle.
00:47:32.960 -->
00:47:33.280Yeah.
00:47:33.519 -->
00:47:35.360You think he knew what he was doing?
00:47:35.599 -->
00:47:39.519You think he knew that he was hustling everybody to get this many bitcoins?
00:47:39.679 -->
00:47:40.000Yeah.
00:47:40.159 -->
00:47:40.320Yeah.
00:47:40.639 -->
00:47:40.800Yeah.
00:47:40.880 -->
00:47:42.159So he was I you know what?
00:47:42.239 -->
00:47:48.800I wonder if he cashed out all of his Dogecoins right in front of the Saturday Night Live type of deal.
00:47:48.880 -->
00:47:49.920And then made it all.
00:47:50.320 -->
00:47:54.079Isn't that the whole idea behind these uh things is the pump and dump?
00:47:54.320 -->
00:47:54.960The pump and dump.
00:47:55.039 -->
00:47:56.320That's how you make the money, right?
00:47:56.400 -->
00:47:59.280And so let's just be real clear about cryptocurrency.
00:47:59.360 -->
00:48:01.360And sometimes we've talked about this and sometimes we haven't.
00:48:01.599 -->
00:48:02.239It's a hustle.
00:48:02.400 -->
00:48:03.199But none of it.
00:48:03.360 -->
00:48:05.519So what is cryptocurrency backed by?
00:48:05.679 -->
00:48:06.079Nothing.
00:48:06.239 -->
00:48:06.719Nothing.
00:48:06.880 -->
00:48:09.920There is nothing that says Bitcoin is going to be worth it.
00:48:10.079 -->
00:48:13.119It is taking advantage of human frailty.
00:48:13.440 -->
00:48:14.239That's what it is.
00:48:14.400 -->
00:48:15.599It's human frailty.
00:48:15.840 -->
00:48:20.239Nothing has to do at all with actual backing up of what they have.
00:48:20.320 -->
00:48:24.960It is just a thought process that this will be worth X amount at a later time.
00:48:25.039 -->
00:48:25.519But you know what?
00:48:25.679 -->
00:48:31.679It's kind of like the Pokemon and like baseball cards, all these type of deals where people want to get rich.
00:48:31.840 -->
00:48:34.960They think that they can get what they're assigning value to things.
00:48:35.199 -->
00:48:37.280Yeah, kind of like the same as the NFTs.
00:48:37.360 -->
00:48:38.719Remember the NFTs were the big crazy?
00:48:38.800 -->
00:48:40.880I mean, we had you actually doing NFTs.
00:48:41.199 -->
00:48:42.400Yeah, did we ever sell any NFTs?
00:48:42.559 -->
00:48:43.440They didn't sell a single one.
00:48:43.599 -->
00:48:47.119No, we we were we were probably like two months late to that NFT area.
00:48:47.360 -->
00:48:51.360Well, you you should have bought it because they're worth millions of dollars now.
00:48:51.599 -->
00:48:57.199They still have the the monkeys that are out there though that are worth tons of money that gets traded.
00:48:57.280 -->
00:48:59.039So I'm gonna go home and eat real food.
00:48:59.280 -->
00:48:59.920Bored apes.
00:49:00.239 -->
00:49:01.280Yeah, bored apes, yeah.
00:49:01.360 -->
00:49:01.679Remember that?
00:49:02.079 -->
00:49:04.960There's still a very trendy NFT that people buy.
00:49:05.199 -->
00:49:07.039Do you have any NFTs there, Peyton?
00:49:07.280 -->
00:49:09.840No, but at least you can for like a card or something.
00:49:09.920 -->
00:49:11.920I physically own it and I can have it in my hand.
00:49:12.079 -->
00:49:14.960An NFT, uh it's just a hyperlink at the end of the day.
00:49:15.760 -->
00:49:18.079It is all secured because people are dumb.
00:49:18.559 -->
00:49:22.320All secured because people want to have stuff.
00:49:22.480 -->
00:49:23.760Well, they're not all dumb.
00:49:23.920 -->
00:49:24.880People are not all dumb.
00:49:25.039 -->
00:49:26.079All right, you know what?
00:49:26.719 -->
00:49:32.639I got I gotta I gotta I gotta out Odie here because she she just flashed me a flashcard that said that on it.
00:49:33.280 -->
00:49:37.280Okay, now we need to move though to our pick of the day whiskey tastings.
00:49:39.360 -->
00:49:43.199And now our pick of the day for our whiskey tastings.
00:49:44.000 -->
00:49:46.079Let's see what bubbles to the top.
00:49:46.239 -->
00:49:47.199It's a hustle, Mark.
00:49:47.280 -->
00:49:47.760It's a hustle.
00:49:47.920 -->
00:49:48.880It's a hustle.
00:49:49.199 -->
00:49:50.800Uh Mark, do you have any bitcoins?
00:49:51.360 -->
00:49:53.360You want you may you may dance to that?

00:50:00.559 -->
00:50:01.119All right, okay.
00:50:01.199 -->
00:50:02.559Do you have any Bitcoin, Mark?
00:50:02.719 -->
00:50:03.039Yes.
00:50:03.280 -->
00:50:03.840Okay, okay.
00:50:03.920 -->
00:50:04.159All right.
00:50:04.239 -->
00:50:04.800You got Bitcoin.
00:50:04.880 -->
00:50:05.599Okay, same same here.
00:50:05.920 -->
00:50:06.800Just playing around with it.
00:50:06.880 -->
00:50:07.920I got Bitcoin too.
00:50:08.000 -->
00:50:08.320I got some.
00:50:08.559 -->
00:50:11.280I have this plastic thing at home that has a B on it.
00:50:11.360 -->
00:50:12.239Is that a Bitcoin?
00:50:12.559 -->
00:50:14.719Uh well, it's a plastic coin off of Amazon.
00:50:14.800 -->
00:50:17.039That's not the same as actually the encryption that is in there.
00:50:17.119 -->
00:50:17.280All right.
00:50:17.440 -->
00:50:18.239See, I'm just as well.
00:50:18.400 -->
00:50:20.159What are we doing for our pick of the day here?
00:50:20.400 -->
00:50:20.639All right.
00:50:20.719 -->
00:50:21.440Well, how are we doing?
00:50:21.920 -->
00:50:22.159All right.
00:50:22.239 -->
00:50:23.760Well, what's your number one?
00:50:24.000 -->
00:50:27.519My number one clearly uh night is day is number 16.
00:50:28.000 -->
00:50:32.719What it what it what it what which is uh which is a great taste.
00:50:33.199 -->
00:50:34.000It's a Glenn Karen.
00:50:34.239 -->
00:50:34.400Yep.
00:50:34.480 -->
00:50:35.840What do you like, Mike?
00:50:36.079 -->
00:50:42.800Uh I'm split between the first three, but I think I'm gonna come down on uh number 13, which is the beer glass.
00:50:43.039 -->
00:50:44.000You like that?
00:50:44.239 -->
00:50:44.719Uh yeah.
00:50:45.039 -->
00:50:48.480Oh, I think it's got a really interesting finish.
00:50:49.039 -->
00:50:52.159I had you saying you didn't like that one, Mike, number 13.
00:50:52.559 -->
00:50:53.679No, I that was 12.
00:50:54.320 -->
00:50:54.559Oh.
00:50:54.960 -->
00:50:55.280All right.
00:50:55.599 -->
00:50:56.800So you're down on 12.
00:50:56.960 -->
00:50:57.119Okay.
00:50:57.519 -->
00:50:58.559So we're both down on 12.
00:50:58.639 -->
00:51:00.480So and I'm down on 13.
00:51:01.039 -->
00:51:02.880So we are not gonna have a decision.
00:51:03.119 -->
00:51:05.920I am absolutely not saying that I'm gonna like 13.
00:51:06.079 -->
00:51:08.320So I'm absolutely saying I'm liking 16.
00:51:08.480 -->
00:51:09.440So we're gonna have to come to Mark.
00:51:09.519 -->
00:51:11.119Mark, you're gonna have to make the decision then.
00:51:11.280 -->
00:51:13.280I guess you're gonna choose between 13 or 16.
00:51:14.800 -->
00:51:16.880Right, the one I would have chosen, neither one of you chose.
00:51:17.199 -->
00:51:17.920Which was that, the twenty?
00:51:19.760 -->
00:51:20.960Well, let's go through them.
00:51:21.119 -->
00:51:30.639So the one you both do not like, number twelve, is the$97 Westward Stout Cask from Portland, Oregon.
00:51:31.119 -->
00:51:32.800So that's the one that's uh finished in beer.
00:51:33.199 -->
00:51:35.679Keep it weird, keep it weird and keep it out of here.
00:51:35.920 -->
00:51:36.320There you go.
00:51:36.480 -->
00:51:37.280That's why I didn't like it.
00:51:37.360 -->
00:51:38.480It tasted like Oregon.
00:51:38.559 -->
00:51:39.280There you go.
00:51:39.599 -->
00:51:39.920Okay.
00:51:40.320 -->
00:51:41.119All right, continue.
00:51:41.360 -->
00:51:48.480The other one that you did not pick is the the Lodestar American whiskey, the$35, the cheapest one.
00:51:48.719 -->
00:51:53.119That is a blend of the 70% high-ride bourbon and 30% American single malt.
00:51:53.760 -->
00:51:55.920That was in the rocks glass, number 20.
00:51:56.239 -->
00:51:56.559Okay.
00:51:56.960 -->
00:52:06.559Yeah, which that's one I would have chosen because it's 70% bourbon and it has a little less of the uh see that was my that was my front runner the almost the entire time.
00:52:06.880 -->
00:52:07.440Oh, okay.
00:52:07.519 -->
00:52:10.239Well, I'll still give that a thumbs up, Mark, but yes, not.
00:52:10.320 -->
00:52:11.199Okay, continue.
00:52:11.360 -->
00:52:12.800So you got you got 13 or 16.
00:52:13.199 -->
00:52:14.960Number 13, chosen by Mike.
00:52:15.280 -->
00:52:16.960Chosen by Mike was$108.
00:52:17.599 -->
00:52:20.960The Courage and Conviction Double Cast Reserve American Single Molt.
00:52:21.199 -->
00:52:21.360Oh.
00:52:21.519 -->
00:52:26.559Now I know why Nathan didn't like it because some of it is finished in red wine barrels.
00:52:26.800 -->
00:52:27.840And I've said no before.
00:52:28.239 -->
00:52:31.840Nathan has never, never, never chosen a red wine barrel.
00:52:32.159 -->
00:52:34.719Are you saying that Nathan actually has a pallet?
00:52:34.880 -->
00:52:35.119I do.
00:52:35.440 -->
00:52:36.480I have a tendency there.
00:52:36.559 -->
00:52:36.880That's good.
00:52:37.360 -->
00:52:39.039He knows what he does like.
00:52:39.199 -->
00:52:43.360He has a consistent th he has a few things he doesn't like, and the rest he dislikes.
00:52:43.519 -->
00:52:43.920That's right.
00:52:44.000 -->
00:52:44.320That's right.
00:52:44.400 -->
00:52:45.840I either don't like it and the rest of it's.
00:52:46.079 -->
00:52:48.800So I think we're gonna go with we're gonna go with the outlier.
00:52:48.880 -->
00:52:56.559We're gonna choose Nathan's pick, number 16 in the Glen Kirin, which is the Chinese whiskey, the black label from Aussie's Distillery.
00:52:56.800 -->
00:52:56.960All right.
00:52:58.320 -->
00:53:01.280That goes exactly with Nathan's awesomeness with TikTok.
00:53:01.440 -->
00:53:01.760That's right.
00:53:01.840 -->
00:53:02.239There you go.
00:53:02.320 -->
00:53:02.960He loves TikTok.
00:53:03.119 -->
00:53:05.119That's now owned by America, and I don't like it anymore.
00:53:05.599 -->
00:53:14.079$75, and it's finished in French, uh oak, American oak, and Chinese oak, and then blended together.
00:53:14.239 -->
00:53:17.360So I think that's an interesting uh blend one.
00:53:17.440 -->
00:53:21.760And I think that's uh later on, Nathan won't automatically kick it out when we're trying to decide something.
00:53:21.840 -->
00:53:24.079So it's gonna make future testings harder.
00:53:24.320 -->
00:53:25.360There you go, that makes sense.
00:53:25.679 -->
00:53:26.639Well, guess what, Mark?
