from Tangent Station · host Kevin Hayes and Willis Lorensen

Hosts Whiz Macker and Mirthmaker barrel through pop culture, nostalgia, and the absurdities of modern internet fame. They riff on AI's ubiquity—writing emails, love letters, and deepfakes—while joking about users outsourcing basic tasks. Tangents weave through 1970s commercials (Calgon!), laundry jokes, and throwback references, landing on how raw, behind-the-scenes content is winning over polished perfection. Their irreverent banter highlights both amusement and worry over technology and viral culture, all while packing in crude jokes, personal anecdotes, and a healthy skepticism about what actually makes someone (or something) famous today.
