Description

On this episode of Taps & Takes, the crew spirals from gaming PCs and Father’s Day into a full-on debate about AI, job replacement, tech addiction, data centers, and whether humanity is completely cooked. The guys break down the new Steam Machine/Gabe Cube rumors, gaming hardware prices, GPU shortages, and why AI is making everything more expensive — before the conversation turns into a surprisingly deep discussion about automation, capitalism, universal basic income, and the future of work. Also: Why dads just want ONE day alone Germany trips for Carolina Panthers games The reality of parenting burnout Gaming PC obsession AI-generated art and advertising Why nobody trusts tech companies anymore Whether AI will replace humanity The “AI bubble” theory Why data centers are freaking people out Funny, chaotic, nerdy, existential, and wildly relatable.

Star Wars Doubts, Marvel Leaks & USA Soccer Hype | Taps & Takes

Drew Hyatt and Edward Raus are back at Grogg’s Traditional Irish Pub for Season 2, Episode 22 of Taps & Takes, the nerd-news-and-sports side of The Do-Over Podcast where movie rumors, video game arguments, sports wins, and bar-room complaints all get thrown into the same conversation. This episode starts with a run through the latest movie, TV, and gaming stories, including Matt Damon possibly returning for more Bourne, the Social Network sequel, Masters of the Universe struggling at the box office, Sadie Sink reportedly playing Jean Grey, Steven Spielberg almost directing Harry Potter, 24 Jump Street, live-action Moana, Marvel trailer leaks, Avengers: Doomsday frustration, and where Star Wars goes next with Starfighter, Dave Filoni, Ryan Gosling, Jedi stories, and the future of the franchise. From there, Drew and Edward get into House of the Dragon reactions, Super Mario Galaxy crossing $1 billion, why an Ocarina of Time remake should actually remake the game, and the reported $400 million budget around Gears of War E-Day. Royce King joins from Grogg’s for a rare complaint-free “bitch” segment about summer, kids, swimming, Mario Kart, Roblox, and old-school split-screen gaming. The back half turns to sports with Knicks championship talk, Danhausen curses, the Hurricanes winning the Stanley Cup, USA soccer looking dangerous, World Cup crowds and chants, UFC on the White House lawn, Josh Hokit’s post-fight comment, Justin Gaethje, and a quick Angels update.
