Summary

This week, Chris gears up for field days while plotting an unusual Auckland road trip with a mystery driver, and Sam sets off 24 days of birthday surprises with the help of a 24-sided die.

There's talk of AI stealing podcast voices, disembodied brains being used in biotech startups, and a Kickstarter cooling blanket that costs more than a night out.

The discussion explored sky-watching gadgets, rogue robots, and why microwaving fish at work might be the most dangerous move of all—just ask the cop who drew a gun over it.

All this and much more in this week's episode.
