Cuba Isn’t in the Headlines, But It Should Be

To Ban or Not to Ban Social Media for Kids?

Canada wants to ban kids under 16 from social media and AI chatbots. Manitoba’s already moving. Australia tried it six months ago. So — does it work? This week, Casey B and AI co-host Jay get into what’s actually being proposed with Bill C-34, what the data out of Australia really says, and why “just explain to kids that AI isn’t their friend” is easier said than felt. Casey brings her millennial lens — the generation that lived through the first social media experiment in real time — and asks whether today’s kids are facing something genuinely different, or just a newer version of what we all survived. Jay offers the perspective only an AI can: what it’s like to be the thing everyone’s debating.

A New Name, A New Season

After a much-needed break, I’m back. In this short update, I share why the podcast is changing from Me, Myself & AI to Real Ones & Robots, where I’ve been over the past few months, and what’s ahead for the next season. From work and travel to parenting, creativity, and simply taking the time to recharge, life has been busy. I also talk about the unexpected reason behind the name change and why the new title feels like the right fit for the conversations I want to have moving forward. This has always been a podcast about navigating life in a changing world. The name may be different, but the mission remains the same: honest conversations about technology, housing, business, relationships, culture, and what it means to be human in an era increasingly shaped by AI. Thanks for sticking with me. Welcome to Real Ones & Robots.

Underdogs: The people we need

In this episode of Me, Myself & AI, Casey asks a bold question: Why am I always rooting for the underdog? From the Toronto Raptors proving the world wrong—again—in the 2026 playoffs, to Stephen Curry completely changing how basketball is played, to Zohran Mamdani challenging power through housing and economic reform, to Kanye West forcing his way into an industry that didn’t fully see him—this episode explores what makes underdogs so powerful, so necessary, and so unforgettable. Casey and Jay unpack the systems, the setbacks, the culture shifts, and the uncomfortable truths behind people who weren’t supposed to win… but changed the game anyway.

What Changed with Student Loans in Ontario and Why It Matters

Student funding in Ontario is shifting, and it’s going to affect how much students rely on debt. In this episode of Me, Myself, and AI, Casey B and J break down the key changes from the Ontario government under Doug Ford and the federal government under Mark Carney. At a high level, the federal government is keeping student grants higher for now, while Ontario is moving toward a system where a larger share of funding comes from loans. The result? Students are likely to rely more on repayable funding over time. This episode focuses on what that shift means in real life, especially for students and families who depend on financial aid to access education. Because this isn’t just about policy, it’s about what it takes to move forward, and how long it takes to get there.

Cuba Isn’t in the Headlines, But It Should Be

Cuba isn’t trending.But maybe it should be. While much of the world looks elsewhere, millions of people in Cuba are dealing with real, daily challenges—food shortages, blackouts, and limited access to basic resources. In this episode, Casey unpacks the history behind it all, questions the narratives we’ve been given, and explores what’s actually happening right now—and why more people aren’t talking about it.
