360 - Fun With Grok
A friend posted ChatGPT response to the following question: What is an alternative system to capitalism that would make sense for the United States of America?
I've decided to do the same with Grok (𝕏). Then I started having some fun with Grok.

359 - Domestic Terrorism Or Something Else
Sometimes curiosity about the origins or details of a meme or infographic send me down a rabbit hole. An infographic that I came across from New America is the latest. Titled, 'Since 9/11, the cumulative people killed by right-wing extremists is greater than those killed by Islamist extremeists.'
I dive in and you may be surprised by what I found.

355 - Big Spending Bureaucrats On The Rise
A California bill (AB1840) that expands a first-time buyer program to illegal immigrants doesn't look too different from some of Vice President Kamala Harris' plans. The American Dream is steadily dying and both parties are taking us there.

346 - Dads, Kids, And Young Men
Dads are great but sometimes we do things that just aren't quite right. Then again, sometimes it's all the hype that Internet drama can buy. In this episode, I discuss a dad's ice cream lesson, JD Vance and talking to his seven-year old, Kyle Rittenhouse versus online MAGA, and we look at the Kids Online Safety and Privacy Act currently going through congress.
