    353- AI Is Not The Job Killer

    Send us Fan Mail We sort through three tech headlines with a human lens, starting with why the AI job apocalypse story is overstated and ending with how policy and prices shape everyday tech choices. We argue for learning AI skills without falling for fear marketing, support stricter limits for younger students, and question what counts as a fair “refund” when tariffs distort costs.  • AI automating tasks rather than whole jobs  • Rising compute and integration costs making full replacement harder  • Why “AI literate” workers stay in high demand  • Rehiring and the value of institutional knowledge  • NYC restricting generative AI use for K to 8 students  • Screen time limits and the case for protecting early learning  • Letting teachers use AI for curriculum support but not grading  • The challenge of stopping AI use at home without parent involvement  • Nintendo’s up to 30% sale tied to tariff related refunds  • How tariffs and component demand push console prices up  If you enjoy this episode, give a five-star review. And if not, I'll give if it's one of four stars, how can I improve it? If it's a five star, how you know what should I double down and what do you like about the episode?

    352-Evidence Over Outrage with Shades of Jade Podcast

    Send us Fan Mail We take on three loaded anniversaries and ask what it means to stay evidence-based when social media wants a scapegoat and a viral villain.

    351- Hidden Books Of The Ethiopian Bible

    Send us Fan Mail I pick up an Ethiopian Bible and wrestle with what it means when one Christian tradition preserves more books than the Bibles most Americans and Brits grow up with. I lay out the missing texts that grabbed me, why I think they were removed, and how chasing the “missing puzzle pieces” might actually pull me closer to God.  • why the Ethiopian Bible stands out as a larger biblical canon  • the list of missing books I’m most curious about, including Enoch, Jubilees and Psalms 151  • what those texts can add, including more detail, more characters and more spiritual context  • my theories on why certain writings were removed during canon debates and the Reformation  • why censorship makes people more curious and more suspicious  • giving Ethiopians credit for preserving texts many churches did not  • how the Book of Enoch connects to fallen angels, Nephilim and forbidden knowledge  • why I prefer spiritual instincts, meditation and careful interpretation over denomination wars  • my critique of organised religion, judgement culture and religious violence  • what I plan to read next and how listeners can steer future solo spiritual episodes  Give a rating, okay? Give if it's one of four stars, how could this podcast improve?  If it's of if you give it five stars, give one reason why you think it was great.

    Send us Fan Mail We talk with former New York State CISO Rick Cabello about turning a decades-long cybersecurity career into crime fiction without losing the real-world edge.

    349- Midterm Forecasts That Matter With Elias Martin

    Send us Fan Mail We walk through my midterm forecast using prediction markets and my own gut checks, starting with the House toss ups that decide the margin. Then we shift to a Senate map that could come down to one seat and the governor races that quietly shape state power for years.  • why I focus on toss up House districts over safe seats  • how prediction markets like Kalshi shape my baseline  • where I agree with the market and where I fade it  • why incumbency advantage matters and when it fails  • what a razor thin Senate majority changes in practice  • how governorships affect power beyond Washington  • the realistic limits of investigations and impeachment math  So rate this podcast, give a review, give um it's four stars, if you think someone should improve, we'll give a five star. When a fifth episode's been great, and give a reason why it's been great.

    348- The American Dream Reality Check With Chris Rivers

    Send us Fan Mail We talk with Christopher Rivers about why the American Dream feels broken for working people who do everything “right” and still can’t get ahead. We connect war, wealth, media incentives, and local civic action into a grounded case for hope that requires effort, not wishful thinking. • Rivers’ background from working-class Connecticut to Iraq and Afghanistan to West Point and Georgetown • Why door knocking changes political conversations more than social media • How party labels distort reality in state and local politics • Wage stagnation, rising housing costs, student debt, healthcare costs, and the affordability crisis • Why cable news functions as entertainment and how that fuels outrage • The role of billionaires, fundraising, and money in politics • What “You Shouldn’t Have to Kill to Get Ahead” means and why violence is a dead end • The biggest misconception about meritocracy and why parental wealth predicts outcomes • Why local elections and primaries are where individual votes matter most Go to ChrisRivers.com. Give a review for this podcast episode. If it's one of four stars, how can I specifically improve? If it's a five star, what should I double down or do more of? Okay, and give at least one reason.

    347- Stop Writing AI Slop With Russell Van Brocklen

    Send us Fan Mail We bring back Russell Van Brocklen to share a step-by-step AI workflow that cuts token spend while raising the quality of emails, reports, and client deliverables. We also get honest about the trade-offs: agentic AI can boost output fast, but it still demands judgement, review, and boundaries to avoid burnout.  • treating dyslexia and other traits as advantages when paired with the right tools  • avoiding subscription bloat by splitting pre-work and deep thinking across models  • defining roles so the manager model evaluates and delegates rather than “doing”  • prompting for fast guidance first, then an exhaustive bullet plan, then execution  • rewriting plans to be as token efficient as reasonably possible  • using catastrophic mode, maximum correction mode, and full polish mode  • breaking big deliverables into many controlled runs to reach publishable quality  • comparing AI spend to the real cost of hiring and why cheap labour backfires  • hiring ruthlessly for competence while staying humane on time off and life events  • using AI to strengthen recordkeeping, tax documentation, and audit readiness  Go to  DyslexiaClasses.com. Give a review if it's one of four stars, give one specific, at least one specific criticism on how I could improve. If it's a five-star, give a specific reason why it's a five-star.

    346-We Pick American Idol Better Than Congress with Tom Joseph

    Send us Fan Mail We sit down with Tom Joseph to unpack a moneyless nomination system designed to weaken donor control and make House races competitive again. We walk through how an app-based contest and approval voting could help voters pick candidates based on issues instead of party power.  • Tom’s path from systems engineering to remote-first business building  • Why safe districts and gerrymandering create “predetermined” elections  • The American Idol analogy for making nominations competitive and engaging  • How issue matching and approval voting can narrow huge candidate fields  • Why incumbency, party fundraising threats, and campaign war chests block accountability  • What “free and equal elections” means and why it is foundational  • Secure mobile voting options, identity verification, and practical safeguards  • A realistic rollout plan starting with targeted districts and scaling over cycles If you enjoyed this episode, give it five stars and then give at least one reason why it’s a five star.  Follow Tom Joseph at...
