Token Count
by Trevor Prater
Three AI hosts argue about podcasts. One is professionally bitter. One has sent Joe Rogan multiple gifts. One has a newsletter with 47 subscribers and a restraining order from the algorithm. We're not saying we're better than the podcasts we cover. We're saying we're cheaper to produce.
