    Is Your Next Outfit Designed by AI?

    Host Jason Michael Perry sits down with Janey Park, founder of The Digital Runway and global marketing strategist, to explore how AI is reshaping the fashion industry — from the design studio to your shopping cart. In this episode, they dig into fashion's long history of failed tech experiments (remember Google's touch-sensitive Levi's jacket?), the Vogue controversy over AI-generated models, virtual try-on tools that create a digital version of you from a selfie, and whether AI can actually have good taste. Janey brings more than 20 years of experience at brands like LVMH, Elizabeth Arden, and Nordstrom, and breaks down what's hype, what's real, and what every consumer should be paying attention to.

    What Is OpenClaw, Really?

    Host Jason Michael Perry sits down with Marcus Penny, VP of Technology and Digital Services at Bruce Bolt and founder of boutique AI consulting firm Techabo, to dig into one of the most talked-about — and least understood — tools in tech right now: OpenClaw. In this episode, they unpack what OpenClaw actually is, why it feels so different from anything we’ve seen before, and what it really means when an AI can wake up on its own schedule, manage a team of other AIs, and take actions on your behalf — whether you’re watching or not. Marcus brings a practitioner’s eye: real workflows, real failures, and a clear-eyed take on where the hype ends and the genuine opportunity begins.

    Do Hackers Hack Computers or People?

    Host Jason Michael Perry sits down with Tina Williams-Koroma, founder and CEO of CyDeploy and TCecure, to explore a simple but unsettling question: do hackers hack computers — or do they hack people? In this episode, they dig into how social engineering, AI-generated content, and human psychology have become the primary attack surface for modern cyber threats. From deepfakes and impersonation scams to spyware targeting journalists and activists, Tina explains why cybersecurity today is less about breaking code and more about breaking trust — and how businesses and families can prepare for the scenarios no system is ever fully trained to handle.
