Boeing.
Boeing.
Boeing.
Boeing can't stop being in the news and for all the wrong reasons. American quality is being questioned internationally as orders slip to Airbus. Why is Boeing failing and how does this relate to American standing worldwide? And what in the hell does "quiet quitting" have to do with all this? Is Boeing the canary in the coal mine? I dunno, what do YOU think?

IT'S COMPLICATED - THE ROBOTS ARE COMING
We're talking AI and Robots but not before a brief detour touching on the "God's Army" Jingo Jamboree happening in Texas. Still, we'll talk about some Sci-Fi rules that maybe should be incorporated as we move into this new world of AI and why AI is both a boon and dangerous as hell.
Yes, your toaster is probably trying to kill you for your own good.
Let's get to it!

IT'S COMPLICATED - CANCELED
What is "canceled" When did it become a thing? Can you come back from being "canceled"? Is what you did in the past more important than what you're doing now? And what happens when our heroes become canceled? And, what if we like them anyway?
After listening to this, you just might cancel me.

IT'S COMPLICATED - I HATE TO TELL YOU BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 'WHITE CULTURE"
Wait! Wait! Wait! Yes, I am talking about racism again but this time I'm going to make white people AND black people angry! It's an equal opportunity piss-off podcast today and nobody is safe (unless they are Latino or Asian... they don't have a horse in this particular race!)
I touch on why there is no such thing as white culture but there absolutely can be black culture and if you can't directly trace where in Africa you're from, you're not African American. I'm throwing punches at everyone today. Will you get out without being knocked out? Listen and find out!

IT'S COMPLICATED - WHAT FRESH HELL SHALL WE HAVE THIS YEAR, MY DEAR?
Bet you weren't expecting this?
HELLO 2024 and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Let's start off the year talking about where we were, where we might be going, and how we got there. We've got the usual suspects all showing up and playing their roles with me, your illustrious curator to break it all down and snark her way through while dropping a few wisdom bombs and history along the way.
It's quintencential Tek content, from a woman who's dragging herself out of the grave and spitting f-bombs at the absurd. Join her as she tries this once again, and this time, with... vigor?
