“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

AI written description: The advancement of artificial intelligence has caused a large amount of concern (and support) around the world. It's a hot-button issue for most people, in that it can implement positive changes - or become like Skynet and destroy us all in a fiery explosion. An extremely broad topic. But what's less broad is what AI can actually do, especially when harnessed by the right people at the right time. Today, we'll discuss the evolution of AI, Google and OpenAI's experiments with art, and how they're using artificial intelligence to bolster human creativity and innovation. Me: AI keeps changing yo. AI is starting getting better at generating art, rewriting for tone in sentences, and even to composing music. We talk about the possibilities that AI can help creativity.…

In this episode Erwin and JV talk about big companies selling itself to bigger companies for bulking up, Nike's 50 years anniversary and lack of mention of E-sports, and vanity gadgets. Big name companies are trying to find homes in other big companies. JV thinks when markets look grim, big companies are the place to go. When markets are great, a plethora of companies helps with keeping markets competitive. Why aren't more companies suiting up e-sports? They just need some cool jerseys, man. We know there is a coming recession... or at least planning for it, but we still like consumer gadgets and other vanity items so we are going to keep buying it!…
