Mr. Green and Captain Tracy are back at the dispatch, riding an elevator and talking through passive income apps, gambling platforms, and why participation now feels mandatory across work, media, sports, and entertainment.
The conversation moves from apps like Go Jackers and the normalization of sports betting into a broader discussion about the attention economy, work culture, and systems that keep running without delivering resolution. Streaming, gaming, and media all start to blur together, revealing the same engagement-driven logic underneath.
Along the way, they explore the idea of an Economy of Nothing video game — turn-based encounters, fixed character abilities, and systems that reflect personality instead of progression — not as a pitch, but as another example of building structure inside broken systems.
New Year's resolutions, job frustration, media noise, and a Fran alert all pass through. Nothing gets solved. Everything keeps going.
The platforms keep running.
You're still expected to participate.
