AI, Iran, and Dirty Soda

from The Snark Factor · host Fingers Malloy

This week on The Snark Factor, Fingers Malloy looks at the uncertainty surrounding Iran, President Trump’s latest comments about a possible deal, and whether there’s any real off-ramp when you’re trying to negotiate with a regime that can’t be trusted. Then, the mood turns darker. Threats against the president, local radio hosts, and conservative voices show just how ugly the political climate has become — and why the assassination of Charlie Kirk changed the conversation for a lot of people on the right. Fingers also digs into a new study suggesting Gen X and Millennials may not outlive previous generations, which leads naturally — and dangerously — into dirty sodas, gas station diets, apple fritters before sunrise, and the eternal question: why does Reese’s keep inventing new ways to destroy us? Plus, Fingers sits down with “Kate,” his ChatGPT AI assistant, for a conversation about artificial intelligence, jobs, medicine, data centers, surveillance, humanoid robots, and whether AI is just a digital politician telling us what we want to hear. It gets weird. But useful weird. Subscribe to all things snark over at FingersMalloy.com.
