E90 - Greek Scandals, Good Espresso & The New Messiah

I got one extra hour of sun and one surprisingly decent espresso, which is weird because I usually drink instant dirt and pretend it’s a personality. I spiral a bit about Nestlé, then I put on Placebo and immediately time-travel back to being an embarrassing teenager. So yeah: music, memory, and how to hack your brain without buying another app. Then I peek at the news: Greece doing Greece things—corruption, surveillance, and a luxury hotel near the Acropolis making money off being illegally tall. I also talk about ads that feel psychic (they’re not), a stupid “white messiah” meme, a Germany rule about leaving the country, and Voyager 1 just quietly escaping all of us. Berlin blossom festival, breathing, jump around, don’t die.

E89 - Mostly Animals

Us or them? An AI dog cancer vaccine and birds using quantum physics. Here's whats up: * Growing the podcast - ads, stickers, mild criminal energy. Expat dad life in Berlin. The nightly betrayal of waking up to pee at 3am. * A thought experiment involving €100 million and the ocean. * Europe's biggest drugstore chain drops krill. * Trump's committee guts the Endangered Species Act so Gulf drilling can take out rare whales, turtles, sharks, and coral. * Migratory birds might literally see Earth's magnetic field through quantum effects in their eyes. * A data engineer used AI and DNA sequencing to make his dog a personalized mRNA cancer vaccine. It worked. Like, rate, subscribe your grandma. Ciao!

E88 - Spiritual Bird Watching ft. Hipster Cafe Battles

Hello world, hello spring. It's been a while. Recording on a Sunday with a kid playing horrible flute through the wall. Divine. Back pain, tooth pain, and a norovirus. Living the dream. Sewages exploding at home and abroad. Also a lovely 14-month-old who points at things until they happen. But life is good and I'm trying to keep this episode light. Succeeding partially - Maybe spiritual bird watching is the way. Oh and I won the caffe hipster battle so I saved you that click.

E87 - Sleeping like baby

Sunny days and deceiving titles. This one's worse than usual! Thanks to whoever did that 21st rating, you're the real MVP.

E86 - Sun, War, Babies & Robots

The sun is out in Berlin. Leonidas eats sand at the playground. Sterilizer is gone, it's his immune system against the world now. He also fell off the bed. He's fine. Probably. Claude AI refuses the Pentagon autonomous kill systems and gets threatened for it. A Spanish guy accidentally controls 7,000 robot vacuums with a PS controller. Iran, AI war simulations going nuclear, and wasps in Germany carrying a 5,000 euro fine if you kill them without probable cause. Let's dive in. Like, rate, subscribe your grandma. Ciao! Also, thanks to you kind stranger who left the 21th Spotify rating. You are the best.
