The ODcast Podcast

Artificial Intelligence vs. Human Creativity (The writing episode)

Dylan interviews Robert and Oscar about their respective creative writing projects – one using A.I. and the other not. This turns into a deep dive on the root impulses of human creativity, and whether A.I. is a threat to art or merely another tool to boost productivity. Note to listeners: Unfortunately Oscar's audio was glitched out and we needed to use phone camera audio to supplement his speech. Thank god we record in video format, but there is a noticeably shift in quality when he speaks. We apologize and will do better next time!

On Creative Writing and Addiction

In celebration of recording a new episode this week (our first of 2025!), we're uploading the forgotten last episode of 2024, which never made it to platforms outside of Youtube. Follow us there on the ODcast Arts channel (@odarting) for more content outside of podcasting. As for this, our 30th episode, it's an introspective one. Buckle up for a ride into the depths of our souls.

We also shares laughs about RuPaul's Drag Race and other less morbid topics.

An Honest Tribute to Steve Albini

We were deeply saddened to hear the news of Steve Albini's passing earlier this month, both as fans of the albums he recorded and of his legendary status in our native Chicago's music scene. In digging into his life and work for this tribute, we uncovered some unsavory aspects of his biography that we felt compelled to discuss in an open and honest way. R.I.P. Steve Albini
