The AI Hoax is Destroying America with Ed Zitron

from Factually! with Adam Conover

The tech oligarchs who once pulled the strings from behind the scenes are now running the show right out in the open. Professional idiot Elon Musk is taking a sledgehammer to the federal government, and Silicon Valley’s sleaziest slimeballs are warming themselves in Trump’s fetid lap. Obviously, this is a disaster. To break down just how bad it is—and what it means for the future of our already struggling country—Adam sits down with friend of the show Ed Zitron, journalist and sharp-tongued tech critic behind betteroffline.com and wheresyoured.atSUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: https://www.adamconover.net/tourdates/SUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.
