We get into a heated debate over these and related questions.

Should Democrats Still Vote for Biden If He Doesn't Drop Out?
The Democratic Party did the country a major disservice in hiding Biden's cognitive decline. Now that we all see clearly how much Biden has lost it, there's no choice but for him to drop out (assuming Democrats care at all about winning).
But if Biden doesn't drop out, should anyone vote for him? We discuss.
"Will you vote for Joe Biden?" discussion starts at min 11:09.

West Coast Cities - Destroyed by Liberals?
What have liberals done to the West Coast? This is the question asked by Nicholas Kristof in the New York Times recently.
Having lived in multiple liberal cities up and down the coast, we have a lot of thoughts on this topic. The conversation covers: homelessness, drug abuse, crime statistics, liberals "losing their minds" on certain social issues, implications for the upcoming presidential election, and more.

The Impact of Technology on Writing - Interview with Yves Stevens
It's a strange time to be a writer. AI-powered writing tools have become so ubiquitous and so powerful, it sometimes feels like a lost cause to struggle through writing a short story or novel the old fashioned way (without AI).
How should writers move forward? What will the writer life look like in the near future?
In this episode of the Team Futurism podcast, Yves Stevens helps me understanding this landscape.
Yves Stevens is an author of several books and host of the YouTube channel Yves the Poet, which offers reviews of writing tech. In this interview, we discuss technophobia in the writing community, the benefits of writing tools such as Novelpad and reMarkable, how ChatGPT will impact writers, how writers can use NFTs, and other topics.
