Description

The digital landscape is getting messier by the minute! In Episode 464, host Steve "Megatron" Phillips and TFG1Mike tackle the controversial news that X (formerly Twitter) is handing the keys to your timeline over to Grok. We discuss the implications of letting AI curate your social experience and why the algorithms are making these platforms feel less human than ever.

We also dive into the trailers that have everyone talking—or scratching their heads—including the first look at Clayface and the surprise return of the boys in uniform with the Super Troopers 3 trailer. But the real heat this week is on the trend of Dynamic Pricing. From concert tickets to consumer goods, Steve breaks down why this practice feels like a legal scam and why it’s time to return to set prices for everyone.
